There were such things like Abarth 1000 OTR and 1000 OTS with 850 coupe body, but they had differnet front ends. Can it be "normal" Fiat 850 Coupe just tuned by the Abarth (or just with the Abarth decal)? -- Last edit: 2012-05-20 17:29:41 |

Definitely based on early 65+ Fiat 850 Coupe, with unusual looking front motif. Possibilities (1) locally assembled version without Abarth upgrades - what country is the plate? (2) a slightly warm Abarth version with rear pillar shield and sill stripes. But Abarth versions of 850 seem to have been called OT (not TC which seems to be part of the sill writing) and in coupe at least had front grilles of some sort. So might be a very mild accessory kit called Fiat 850 TC Coupe Abarth or similar if such a thing existed - in UK we had dealer kit Abarths on 500 fitted by Radbourne, but still branded Fiat. Edit: @weasel - great minds .... -- Last edit: 2012-05-20 17:44:06 |

This is an absolutely normal 1965-68 Fiat 850 coupé and not an Abarth. The front motiv is normal but seen by an unusual point |

I suspect without being sure a Swiss plate |
