Fiat - Tipo I 12/15 HP - 1908

Fiat Type 1 12/15 HP from 1907 in good condition. This is one of the oldest Fiat car preserved in Spain. This is the vehicle number 14 ever registered in the city of Zaragoza. Its history from the first half of the 20th century is unknown, but the car was recovered in the late 50s by one of the first Spanish collectors, who restored it and used it in several rallies that time (an old picture of the car participating in the 4th edition of the Madrid-Benidrom-Madrid classic car rallye in the 60s is attached). It is believed that the current bodywork was rebuilt back then, as in the old picture the car already has it. There is also a picture of a Fiat Type I in original condition, from the Fiat Historical Archive. Recently, the car has been fully restored mechanically, so it drives perfectly and the car even has a valid ITV (Spanish vehicle inspection) service, passed recently. The tyres are new and have been barely used. It is thought that all the mechanical part is the original of the car. The headlights work with acetylene gas and sidelights with oil and wick. Everything approved in the data sheet. Several components have patina, as shown in the pictures. The car is located in Zaragoza, Spain.
