1962 Fiat Abarth 1000 TC Berlina

The Fiat-Abarth 1000TC Berlina is one of the most celebrated small-displacement competition saloons of the 1960s, derived from the Fiat 600D platform and prepared for road racing and circuit use in the 1000cc Touring Car class. This left-hand-drive, UK-registered example is powered by a 982cc OHV four-cylinder engine producing 68bhp, mated to a five-speed close-ratio gearbox and equipped with four-wheel disc brakes. Reported to have covered fewer than 27,000km from new across just four owners, it is said to remain largely original and unrestored.
