  1. my very first car was a 1959 Fiat 500 Cabriolet, and so was my second. Did not see much Abarth here then in the early 60s- but you did see the Bianchina - Back then the 500s for the American market had special Bugeye headlamps to meet our highway regulations and they were fantastic lights - 12 volts back when VW was still running 6 volts. It also had fantastic brakes, the rear mounted engine was aircooled 2 cylinders upright, not boxer and it had a transaxle with swing axles. Oliver Motor Company at the north and east corner of Main and Elmwood was the dealer as well as being the Chrysler dealer.

  2. I did some research on this thing - it turns out that the engine for it is manufactured by the Obama Motor Company (Chrysler) in Detroit.

    There is no ad that could make me buy one of those.
