FIAT 500 an all Italian wonder sent on November 03, 2018 (17:08) by Rinaldo1005. 104 comments, 3016 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.

Beautiful composition set, my compliments for your caption, very edited and interesting. The B.N. enhances the scene, although there are still some elements of period disturbance is a great historical document.
Happy New Year's Greetings :-P

The mythical 500 highlighted in a square in the Baroque style, whose Church evokes one of the television pages browed during "Carousel".
