For Sale: 1970 Fiat 850 in Laguna Beach, California

The Fiat Shellette is the result of a collaboration between yacht designer Phillip Schell and famed automotive stylist Giovanni Michelotti. Michelotti was one of Italy's most important and influential stylists, servicing Vignale, Maserati, Lancia, BMW and many others.

VEHICLE OVERVIEW
Based on the 850 chassis, the Fiat Shellette has been substantially reworked to the point where it bears little resemblance to the Fiat. The styling by Michelotti is dramatic and aero, reflecting the design trends of the mid to late '60s in Italy. Unlike the much more common Fiat 600 Jolly, the Fiat Shellette is a far more refined and better equipped machine. Featuring a drive-train capable of comfortably moving the car along at 60mph, it also has heat and a stereo system. The more luxurious Fiat Shellette was produced in low numbers - only 80. Of the 80 built one found its way to Jacqueline Onassis.

This particular car was carefully restored by my neighbor several years ago and has been enjoyed by his family ever since. Now he is too old to drive and enjoy it and he would like to find a good new home for it. In preparation for the sale the car has been fully serviced including new tires, water pump and tune-up. This vehicle is exempt from California smog requirements, comes with a clean and clear California title.
