Chassis #0638-360 — Base Fiat 850
Discovered as a barn find in Italy, this S1 is shown in an unrestored, project state. The car is finished in what appears to be an original cream or ivory paint, now showing significant patina and surface deterioration. The rear view reveals the engine bay with components removed and the rear bumper absent.
Despite its current condition, the body shell appears structurally sound with the characteristic Sportiva shape clearly intact. The twin exhaust outlets, louvered engine cover, and rear light clusters are all present. The original wood-rimmed steering wheel is visible through the rear window. This car represents a significant restoration project that could yield an excellent result given the apparent solidity of the body structure.
