1971 Fiat 500 Giardiniera Jolly - incredbile shape - recent restoration

Please make sure you read this ad in its entirety!! Up for sale/auction is a rare 1971 Fiat 500 Giardiniera Jolly. Among a very few variants of the standard FIAT 500 Jolly and perhaps the rarest of all is the long wheel based version the Giardiniera (people mover) at a whopping 4 inches longer wheel base. The Giardiniera Jolly long wheel base provided ample room at the rear of the car for luggage to move the resorts guests to and from their villas. That extra luggage space was also provided by locating the very reliable standard vertical, nline two cylinder, 99 cc engine to the horizontal position. A full syncromesh four speed gear box will power the car to nearly 55 mph. Ghia constructed the Jolly automobiles from 1957 into 1965. Autobianchi, tilizing the Fiat bodies, ook over the production of the car from 1965 until the last ones were built in 1974. This car was imported in 2014. Prior to its importation, he Jolly underwent a full restoration in Italy (cosmetically as well as mechanically). Mechanically, he car is very solid, he engine runs with no issues and the transaxle shifts smoothly. Cosmetically, he car sports a bright, eriod correct, ellow paint job which is, n my opinion, o a fairly good standard (not concours). To the best of my knowledge there is no rust on this car. The rubber appears to be in fine condition as is the bright work. The tires are new. I purchased this car as an authentic Jolly but I cannot verify it to be authentic - please bid accordingly.
