1935 Fiat Ardita 2500 LONG Time Sitter- Neat - $3950 - CL listing

Here is another really old Fiat. Very much a "Rust in peace" vehicle according to the ad, but if you need a 1935 Fiat, here ya go!

Looks like it has a crank start. That would be fun.

It looks like the tread is still good on those tires. But, I think you would want to replace them, right

Wikipedia lists 1000 as its production number. I wonder how many of them are still around?

From the innerwebz. A restored Ardita. Nice

Haven't been much of a fan of ancient stuff like this but I really find this compelling. Like it would be a neat project for an ICON Derelict style build. Thanks for sharing it Jim.

Is this what '30s Italian gangsters would have used?

Shortage of Tommy guns in Italy in the 30s?
It's got the running boards to ride.

What about Don Corleone? Or was that the 40s?
