Great Running Car, Needs Tlc With Potential To Become A $25,000 Car on 2040-cars

Year:1965 Mileage:0
Location:

 1965 Fiat Nouva (was 1967 on the title but running the number through some websites I found there stopped making these in 1965 so the Title changed it).

It runs as former owner was a mechanic, he also put cool rims and nice tires (see pictures). There are rust to be taken care of but through ebay or mr.fiat and on other websites you can practically replace every body part for cheap. We had fun with it for a few month but it rains a lot in Washington state and less fun to drive while raining.

I have no problem starting the car if battery is charged. It was garaged with the former owner and I have it fully covered under a tarp for the last couple of months. I did not clean it before taking the pictures as it is still raining here.

This is over 40 year old car, I cannot tell you in what mechanical condition it is in as I'm not a mechanic and understand little about cars internals. I use it to pick up the kids from school which is close by. I once drove to the nearest towncenter  and back, it also went up a steep hill in the area and then down. Please check all the pictures and if you have questions ask I will try to help as best I can, like I mentioned i'm not a mechanic.

I got it with the intentions to give it some TLC and make it a beauty and I am selling it because the reality is that  my kid is off to college and the bills are pilling...

There is a reserve price if it is not met I reserve the right to approach the highest bidder with an offer.

It is also listed locally so if I sell it I will remove this listing.

The car is sold as-is where if you want to arrange someone to inspect it you are more than welcome to do so before the bidding ends. Once the bidding ends $500 due within 24 hours via paypal, the rest will be a wire transfer within 3 days of auction end. I will relist the car if these are not met and report to ebay as non-paying bidder. I have 100% positive feedback - bid with confidence.

I reserve the right to cancel bidders with no feedback, low feedback or negative feedback.

If you are buying it remotely meaning you are not here to pick it up, you will need to pay for shipping & loading expenses.

By bidding you also assume all responsibilities from the time this car leaves our yard.

Happy Bidding

Marchionne uses racial epithet to describe what must power future Alfa Romeo models

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

Sergio Marchionne and his Fiat empire have a lot riding on the US return of the Alfa Romeo brand. The endeavor has been in progress for what feels like a lifetime - certainly for as long as Fiat has had the Chrysler brand under its Italian wing.
It's not surprising that Fiat CEO Marchionne needs a perfect first Alfa to mark a return to America. And here's where things get dicey. Nobody would argue with Marchionne's insistence that Alfa Romeo's be powered by Italian engines - as Marchionne himself is quoted to have said at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, "There are some things that are well done in Italy."
If not what he said, then, it's how he said it that has eyebrows raised. "I cannot come up with a schlock product, I just won't. I won't put an American engine into that car. With all due respect to my American friends, it needs to be a wop engine." Wait, what's that?

P. Diddy hosting Fiat 500L desert party

Wed, 12 Feb 2014

Fiat didn't run an advertisement during this year's Super Bowl. We've no idea why, though, because based on this recently released 60-second spot, the Italian brand probably could have done quite well during the big game.
The spot, called Mirage, stars Sean "Diddy" Combs (who happens to be the ex of former Fiat spokesperson Jennifer Lopez) and a pair of very unfortunate pedestrians. Wandering through the desert, the two are confronted by what they think are mirages before stumbling into a giant party hosted by the Grammy Award-winning rapper. It's a humorous spot, highlighting a product that Fiat really needs to succeed, the new 500L.
The Super Bowl-worthy ad is part of a larger campaign that will hopefully help distinguish the four-door L model from its smaller, two-door counterpart. "Too many people discover the 500L through the 500. That's what we have to solve for here," Jason Stoicevich, head of Fiat's brand in North America, told Automotive News. "It's awareness. We know it, we understand it and we had to find a creative way to deal with it."

Fiat recalls nearly 30,000 Fiat 500L models

Wed, 30 Jul 2014

Fiat has announced a recall of 29,500 Fiat 500L hatchbacks in the US and Canadian markets due to concerns that the roomiest member of the Fiat range features knee airbags that won't deploy unless the occupant's seatbelt is fastened.
There have been no injuries reported due to this issue, which affects vehicles from model years 2014 and 2015. Of the nearly 30,000 vehicles covered in this recall, 25,500 come from the US market, while the remaining 4,000 are from Canada. It's not clear what the underlying cause of this issue is.
Fiat knows of no injuries relating to this problem. As per usual, owners will be notified and asked to report in for a free repair.
