Fiat 850 Racer Berlinetta

Vehicle Overview

The convertible, the Fiat 850 Spider, was designed by Bertone. Some 150,000 examples were produced. Much less known is another car that Bertone created, one based on the 850: the Berlinetta. It was a Coupé, or, to be more precise, a Spider that had a hardtop and whose lines were different from those of the Coupés that left the Fiat factory more commonly. Only 4,000 Bertone berlinetta’s were built, most of them for the American market. Many of the Berlinetta’s have not survived the wear and tear that comes with time and it is estimated that only a few dozens of them remain.
