Single model marque madness: Fiat 1500

There are many classic car collectors devoted to a single marque and model, and today we show the "cave" of one of these model maniacs, located in Spain (close to Barcelona). The huge collection (more than 60 cars) is hosted in a former barn, now full with unrestored Fiat-Seat 1400 C and 1500, the majority with very rare bodies made in little series. The two stars of the collection are the pair of two door cabriolets (Photos 2 and 3), created in the early 60s by Pedro Serra of Barcelona.

Other really exceptional variations are the pick-ups, present in at least four units (photo 4). Also we can find a great variety of different hearses (photo 5), ambulances with extended top (photo 6) and even old Taxis from Barcelona (Photo 7). But if there is something in common in all the cars (apart of the model) then it is the unrestored condition of every single one. There is not one car in running condition... We wonder if the uncommon collector will ever get to start that part of his hobby.
