Car of the Week: 1969 Fiat 500L

From the roads of Italy to the streets of Michigan, this little 1969 Fiat 500L has brought smiles wherever it has roamed.

Wayne Hayward loved his little 1969 Fiat 500L so much that he couldn't leave it behind. He just had to bring it home with him — all the way across the Atlantic Ocean.

Hayward drove the wheels off the tiny sedan while he lived and worked in Italy. He didn't mind using a 50-year-old microcar as his daily transportation — even in the hills and snow of northern Italy. He had so much fun being squeezed behind the wheel that he brought it home to Plainwell, Mich., with the rest of his belongings.

Double Restoration

First GT350 first restored to Ford specs, then to Shelby standards

Three years ago, Florida car-collector Nick Smith acquired the most collectible of all Shelby Mustangs — 5S003, the prototype for the street 1965 GT350 and the first GT350 completed at Shelby American in late 1964. Although previously restored to award-winning concours condition by former owner Mark Hovander, Smith established his own ambitious goal for the historic GT350: "It's the first Shelby Mustang so it should be the best Shelby Mustang."

That objective set the stage for a "re-restoration," one that would make history as the only Shelby Mustang restored as it was originally built — first as a concours-spec 1965 Mustang 2+2 fastback as assembled by Ford, then converted into a GT350 in much the same manner as it was built by Shelby American.
