   I ended up picking up this car. It looks to be quite a project. Finding any information on Autobianchi in English, beyond the Wikipedia page, is proving to be quite a challenge. Any ideas?

   Early and late 59’s are different. The heater air setup from the engine is different and the rear axles changed. Late 59’s use 4 bolts on the outer axle flanges where they connect to the wheel axle while early 59’s have 3 bolts.

   Do you have a ‘special’ or standard Bianchina?

   I just picked up a 62′ ‘special’ to restore and have a 59′ flat floor that is completely restored that has been in the family since 63′. These are a kick to drive around town……

   I agree completely — Fiat Plus is a great resource. You can order copies of the manuals for not much money, and they’re a big help. I got four (Instruction Book, Bodywork, plus the Fiat 500 Spare Parts book and Shop Manual). They were helpful over the phone too. Good luck — I got a ’59 Trasformabile Special this year and it’s in nice shape but will need some attention regardless so I’ll be ordering a few things from Chris Obert.
