Description

Fiat 500 Sport built by the CFM workshop in the 1950s for the Millemiglia. Only 2 cars produced.
Overhauled sports engine with dual carburettors, modified camshaft and valves for better performance. Abarth water pump.
Pre-series Borrani spoked wheels.
Complete restoration, bodywork, engine, gearbox, clutch.
New brakes and tyres.
The bodywork was completely stripped of paint, sanded, checked, reinforced and treated with anti-corrosion (see photo), the aluminum covering was partially replaced due to the corrosion that occurred during the years of abandonment. (it is handmade aluminium). . The color is FIAT, original formula.

As for the engine, it has been completely overhauled (I have only driven 35 km). It is a sports engine, with two Weber carburettors, modified camshaft, oversized valves, Abarth water pump with thermostatic valve, oversized aluminum oil sump.
The gearbox has been overhauled, all bearings and seals have been replaced. Brakes, tires and inner tubes are new.
The spoked wheels are original BORRANI Record 15 x 2.75 (I received compliments during the Padua fair, directly from a Borrani employee, the wheels and nuts are almost impossible to find on the market).
All wiring is new, even the odometer and fuel gauge!! The other instruments have been revised.
Interior redone with imitation leather, as originally.
For any request don't hesitateto ask me.
