MotoeXotica is happy to offer one of the smallest Woody Wagons in the world in 1951; the Fiat Topolino, hich means “little mouse” in Italian and it is also what Italians call Disney’s beloved Mickey Mouse. Way before the current Mini Cooper, iat 500 and original Morris Mini-Minor came the Topolino. The car was a factory custom built variant from Carrozzerie, coach builder in Turin Italy. Very few models such as this were ever produced and which makes it an odd duck to be seen today. When is the last time you say one!

This model has a 570 cc four-cylinder engine paired with a four-speed manual transmission with synchromesh in third and fourth gears. It features independent front suspension, ydraulic brakes and sliding side window glass.

Outside, ts emerald green paint contrasts nicely with the wooden panels and there are special badges on both sides of the cowl, Carrozzerie Speciali,” to indicate the unique panels. They are an uncommon factory option that few cars received. Car comes with a soft top that opens most of the roof for al fresco, r open-air, otoring.

Inside, he speedo & odometer are inoperable, he tires are older, ut despite its outward appearance, t features a seemingly large cozy, rown interior with wood accents.

Fiat produced the Topolino between 1936 and 1955 in three models – A, and C. In 1951, ntonio Gusmaroli bought this Model C two-door van and used it for family outings and it remained with the Gusmaroli clan for more than 40 years!
