Details

This is an outstanding example of an Isetta that underwent a professional nut-and-bolt body-off restoration completed in 2016 with only test miles. This car was in excellent condition prior to the restoration. Everything on this microcar was restored or replaced with the highest-quality parts. A complete photo album of the restoration is included. These restoration photos document everything completed, such as the body, interior, frame, engine, transmission, braking and suspension system. The bodylines and fitment are excellent. It's been finished in desirable Coral Red and Sand Dune Beige. The rear luggage rack holds a picnic basket, which looks great. The tan interior complements the exterior perfectly. The door panels, seat covers and carpeting were upgraded to a higher-quality material, which is much richer than the factory offered. It's powered by a 298cc engine and 4-speed transmission. The detailed engine has been completely rebuilt. Everything in the engine was rebuilt, including boring the block, upgrading the aluminum rod to steel, new piston and rings, rebuilt head, bearings, seals and gaskets. Everything in the transmission, from bearings to gaskets, was rebuilt as well. The entire braking and suspension system was all replaced with new parts. The frame and all the suspension parts were powder-coated. The underside of this car is as detailed as the topside. It is ready to be shown and enjoyed.
