Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1961 Fiat Abarth 850 TC Nurburgring Corsa is a competition/street saloon with a rich history, including time spent in the Collezione Maranello Rosso. Modified for competition, it features an upgraded engine, oil cooler, and interior, though it requires recommissioning due to its time as a static display. The car includes original Italian registration plates and documentation, adding to its appeal, but is subject to import tax within the EU.
Condition
5
The car's description indicates a history as a static museum exhibit, suggesting it hasn't been regularly maintained or driven. While the engine appears to be in good condition internally and turns freely, the water pump is seized, and the brakes are binding. The body has been modified with competition parts, and the interior has been re-trimmed, deviating from its original condition. It will need expert inspection and some degree of recommissioning.

Description
The superbly successful ever-developing line of Fiat-Abarth 850 TC saloon cars produced and campaigned during the 1960s featured this 'Nurburgring' variant which was itself produced in two different versions – normal road-going trim and stripped, stark racing.
The Fiat-Abarth 850TC Berlina (Turismo Competizione, or 'touring competition') was introduced towards the end of 1960.
It used the Fiat 600 integral bodyshell with suitable high-performance modifications, most noticeable of them being the add-on nose pod that was provided by Abarth to accommodate the oil cooler matrix.
