The Fiat 600 made its debut at the Geneva Motor Show in the spring of 1955 and is still considered to be one of the most sensational new small cars of the post-war period. This handsome small car with a rear engine had an integral body, front leaf springs and rear coil springs. Despite its small size it offered four adequately proportioned seats. This car was predestined for the special sporty bodies that were offered by, among others, Pininfarina, Allemano and Abarth, who was even able to build a marque of his own on the basis of the 600. In the late summer of 1960 Fiat followed the 600 by the Fiat 600 D. The water-cooled, four-cylinder, rear engine was increased from 633 to 767 cc, taking the capacity to 25 bhp, which enabled this popular small car to reach a top speed of 110 kph. Fiat had deliberately designed the 600 D with an improved torque curve. The D produced by the end of the 60s had additional louvres on the engine cover, bumper guards and, unlike the earlier 600s, by the end of 1963 the doors were hung from the A-posts. Die cast details: Opening trunk and doors; Beautifully reproduced engine; Nicely rendered interior with bucket seats, door and dash detail; Detailed chassis; and Steerable front wheels.
