In 1957 a famous Italian playboy (and Chairman of Fiat) wanted to add a "land tender" to his 82 foot yacht. He sent one of the current air cooled 2-cylinder 500 models over to the Ghia Carrozzeria for the conversion. Soon Aristotle Onassis owned three of them. Yul Brenner, ohn Wayne, race Kelly and even Mae West all reportedly owned Jollies. President Lyndon Johnson used his model 500 Jolly on his Texas ranch. There was a fleet of rental Jollies on Catalina Island.

This car was imported in 2014. Prior to its importation, he Jolly underwent a full restoration in Italy (cosmetically as well as mechanically). Mechanically, he car is very solid, he engine has been rebuilt and runs with no issues and the transaxle shifts smoothly. Cosmetically, he car sports a bright, eriod correct, reen paint job which is, n my opinion, o a very good standard (not concours). To the best of my knowledge there is no rust on this car. The rubber appears to be in fine condition as is the bright work. The tires are new.

I purchased this car as an authentic Jolly but I cannot verify it to be authentic – please bid accordingly. The reserve is set far below of recent auction sales for Fiat Jollies.
