Fiat 500 Topolino Cabriocoach — 1936

The very first 1936 model year of a beloved small car named after a widely recognized Disney character—Mickey Mouse—who made his debut in the 1928 film Steamboat Willie. Presented here in beautifully restored condition, and most likely with a documented Swedish history since new.

"Without having driven this exact example, I know the kind of irresistible driving pleasure a small, forward-looking car from the 1930s with 14 horsepower and just over 600 kg delivers."

"Without having driven this exact example, I know the kind of irresistible driving pleasure a small, forward-looking car from the 1930s with 14 horsepower and just over 600 kg delivers."

Description

The car has documented Swedish history dating back at least to 1978, when it was pre-registered—equivalent to today’s origin inspection. The original Swedish owner’s manual suggests the car was sold new in Sweden. For those interested in fully verifying its history prior to 1978, records can be searched at the National Archives. It’s presumed that the owner at the time was also the one who restored the car, supported by a weighbridge certificate, a handwritten receipt, inspection reports from the 1980s, and photos from the restoration.

Several inspection reports from the 1980s and 1990s are included in the file, with the 1986 report from the registration inspection being sufficient. Vehicles manufactured before 1951 were exempt from inspection under the rules at the time, which were changed in 2018.

The sale also includes a spare parts package with a hood, brake drums, radiator, electrical parts, trim, radiator grille, and headlights. An engine and a fuel tank are available for pickup in Landskrona.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    Started with fuel poured directly into the carburetor, and the engine sounds lively and healthy. The brakes are dragging and need attention, and the clutch is stuck in the disengaged position.

  • Interior condition:

    Stylish, red, and clean with all the attractive, Spartan charm that an early 500 Topolino conveys inside. Nice carpets and door panels, and the soft top opens and closes smoothly.

  • Exterior condition:

    Nice paintwork, though it would improve even more with a polish. The soft top is intact, and the small rear window is in good condition. The turn signal indicators work but may need some lubrication and exercise.

  • General condition:

    High charm factor and a pleasant condition, with a few necessary mechanical repairs that are not uncommon for a car that has been stationary for over 20 years.

Facts about the model

The Fiat 500 was created during the interwar period with the goal of providing an affordable car to get rural people on wheels. Its small size and vague resemblance to the Walt Disney character led to it being nicknamed Topolino (Mickey Mouse). Although this was a nickname, it came to identify the three model series produced from 1936 to 1955.

  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
