1959 Fiat Bianchina 500 Auto Bianchi Transformable Parts

Offered here is a Bianchina 500 microcar for parts or project.

Auto-Bianchi built the Bianchina based around a Fiat 500 chassis.  The Bianchina used the same Fiat 500 running gear with the 497cc air cooled twin 2-cylinder engine.   4-speed gearbox. 

This Bianchina is mostly complete and would be great for parts or a fun custom project.   The car has rusty floors and rust in some of the body.   There has been tree damage done to the passenger side roof and passenger door section.   So it's a good parts car, but, It could be made into a convertible?  Electric? Volkswagon power? or custom project.

Please take a good look at the photos and you can see all the trim, switches, front seat frames, rear seat cushions and assorted goodies that are there. I also have parts I will include that are not shown in the photos, such as, Transaxle, Top bows, Seat upholstery (for patterns), Horn button, Original matching number engine (dis-assembled, may not be complete or have all usable parts but I know the nice original crankcase assembly with matching numbers to the body tag is in nice usable condition.  The lower end crankcase is all assembled and looks good.  The cylinders, pistons, head ??? not so sure of condition, but new replacements for these parts are available.  I should have all the cooling tin, splash pans, generator and that sort of stuff.)  

Please remember this car is not 100% complete, but pretty close.  There is some small missing parts, including mechanical, fasteners and trim stuff.    

Windshield and passenger door glass were broken from the tree damage and I do not have replacements for these but the windshield aluminum trim is there and can be seen in the photo sitting on the back seat.   All 5 tires are old, rotted and flat, includes spare tire.  

Bianchina comes with clear California title (pink slip) in my name, with matching numbers to chassis and engine,  car does not have current registration.

A little history on this ’59 Bianchina:   My dad purchased this Bianchina in the early 1960’s for my mom when they were dating.   I rode around in the back of this car when I was little.   My dad installed the shift knob, radio, and tinted visors, and current tires when he owned it 50 years ago.   My folks sold the Bianchina to a local fellow here in town.   He used the car for a few years then parked it out behind his home in the weeds for the next 17 years where it acquired most of it’s rust after the top failed.   I purchased the Bianchina from him in the early 1980’s, gave it a spray can paint job, and used the car here and there over the next few years.   It suffered the tree damage about 10 years ago while being stored up at my parents house.   

I am selling this 1959 Bianchina as-is for parts.  It will include signed title and bill of sale.  Full payment due within 2-days of end of auction.   Payment can be made via Paypal.   Buyer to arrange and pay for all shipping, transporting and handling of this vehicle.   Vehicle needs to be removed within 7-days of end of auction unless other arraingments have been made with me, and everything must be removed at same time. 

Thanks so much for bidding on this neat little microcar.
