FIAT 500 an all Italian wonder sent on November 03, 2018 (17:08) by Rinaldo1005. 103 comments, 2970 views. [retina]

La FIAT 500, una meraviglia tutta italiana. Il 4 luglio del 1957 segna l'esordio della FIAT 500 come l'evoluzione della Topolino. Il successo arriva negli anni Sessanta e Settanta. Diventa il simbolo del boom economico, la "piccola grande vettura" sogno dei lavoratori. Va fuori produzione nel 1975. Il museo di arte moderna di New York, ha un'esemplare nella sua galleria permanente. Prima di lei era stata ideata la Fiat 600, un modello che costava 590mila lire. Questa vettura, però, non era alla portata di tutti. La FIAT quindi la realizzò per essere accessibile anche agli operai e alla classe media. Fu venduta a un prezzo di 490mila lire (pari a circa 13 stipendi di un operaio). Negli spot dell'epoca, era stata ribattezzata come "la piccola grande vettura" capace di raggiungere i 90 km/h circa. Dopo qualche miglioramento sulla versione iniziale, soprattutto all'abitacolo e al motore, e un abbassamento dei prezzi (fino a 465mila lire,) il successo fu clamoroso e la 500 divenne "il sogno" dei lavoratori: dal 1957 al 1975 vennero prodotti circa quattro milioni di esemplari. La ritroviamo anche nel mondo della fantasia e, in particolare, in quello dei cartoni animati in Cars, dove interpreta il gommista Luigi. Dopo la guerra, in un Paese dove tutto era da ricostruire fu possibile racchiudere un nuovo mondo, in una scatoletta a quattro ruote. Era talmente essenziale da venire subito rimodellata alla ricerca della forma perfetta, originando sinfonie di variazioni: Giardinetta, Abarth, Lucertola, Sport, America... Specifiche ed optional di questa auto-bebè: due sedili e una panchetta posteriore, lunga meno di tre metri, peso di mezza tonnellata, motore a 2 cilindri raffreddato ad aria, se “tirata” tocca la vertiginosa velocità di 85 km all'ora e fa quasi 25 chilometri con un litro di “normale”. Cambio a quattro marce non sincronizzate, tergicristallo senza ritorno automatico, i finestrini laterali sono fissi tranne due deflettori apribili a compass, il riscaldamento usa l'aria di raffreddamento del motore. Capienza massima del posacenere: 2 mozziconi. Optional: lo sbrinatore del parabrezza, le alette parasole e le gomme con fascia bianca, il massimo dello snob. Il Paese dei Ladri di biciclette si trasformerà in quello del Sorpasso e della Dolce Vita. Lo scatto nasce a Galatina (LE) una bellissima cittadina in provincia di Lecce. Ringrazio il proprietario della 500 che stave per partire, ma è rimasto lì fino a quando ho effettuto lo scatto. Purtroppo a sinistra è strettina perchè c'erano molti elementi di disturbo che alteravano il momento anni 60 dello scatto. La posizione della macchina con le ruote girate e lo sfondo della cattedrale rappresentavano per me un'invito ad effettuare questa foto. L'ho convertita in BN per avere un'atmosfera anni 60. Commenti e critiche costruttive sono sempre benvenuti.

Nice shot and lots of memories. Even for me it was my first car as a boy in 1974: A life ago! This one you photographed is a later version. Mine, an "L", a little more accessoried and with the classic bumper. I don't know how I used to get into a little box so small!

Of course that creates a nice contrast the minimal line rounded of 500 with the Baroque church of the mother of Saints Peter and Paul, the caption is very interesting with details that I did not remember despite having guided it for several years. It will have been an all Italian wonder, but when I could replace it with another model, the 127, I was ultra happy. :-D a greeting

Let's start with order. The image is composed as best you could not. You have dedicated an important shot to one of the most representative icons of the most shining period of our Republic, the post-war years. The 500 was also for me the first medium (strictly used), as for hundreds of thousands of compatriots and not. Great Rinaldo I like a lot.
Bye Josh ;-)

Nice shot for composition and PDR, which makes her look like the first woman. Perfect setting with the church in the background that brings back to times past when even all the advertisements presented it as the machine for all.
Nice the b/n.

A beautiful realization, photo and caption (one taken and the other written) were made with absolute fussiness and search for precision, which in this case are appreciated without any reservation. And to think that today you twist your nose to the idea of the ' low cost '..... Congratulations, Rinaldo.

Mythical 500 :-), as a child we spent a lot of time in 5 to chat and to smoke, many good memories. Great shot, congratulations Rinaldo :-)

Congratulations Rinaldo also for the exhaustive caption.

The mythical 500 that has accompanied my youth!
But the façade of the church is also beautiful!
a nice mix of sacred and profane in this beautiful shot!
Superb composition and excellent choice of beautiful black and white!
Bravo Rinaldo, many compliments!
Good evening!

An excellent b/n allows to enhance both the subject, a myth of my youth, and the second floor, with the beautiful cathedral. Beautiful Street Rinaldo, and how many memories... a Salutone! Simone.

Very beautiful as always. Certainly the composition is important but I also think that it is more what "passes" the shot. Between the little space on the left (as already reported) and the combination with the church in the background as if to mean "is a national monument to his Ari" I prefer the latter. (I hope I wasn't too long-winded).
Greetings.
