(Italy 1959)
The first non-standard automobile to be produced on an industrial level, using the mechanicals of an existing model, namely the Fiat Nuova 500.
The Bianchina was an immediate success when it was presented in September 1957.
This elegant little convertible, with its characteristic line and finishing touches, was to become the classy car for “special occasions”.
