Vehicle Overview

The Fiat 1500 Cabriolet Stabilimenti Farina stands as a collaborative masterpiece, a testament to the creative brilliance of Giovanni Michelotti and Mario Revelli di Beaumont. In the annals of automotive history, this remarkable vehicle, born from their inventive minds, emerged victorious, claiming the coveted 1st prize at both the 1939 Concorso d’Eleganza in San Remo and Turin. The accolades bestowed upon it were a resounding affirmation of its exceptional design and unparalleled craftsmanship. Inspired by the Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 S chassis 913.007, the Fiat 1500 Cabriolet Stabilimenti Farina boasted not only a graceful exterior but also an elegant dashboard design crafted by Mario Revelli di Beaumont.
