This beautiful vehicle is a 1500 OSI Familiare station wagon from 1966. It comes from southern Italy from a collector who has lovingly cared for it. The Fiat is in very nice condition and is still completely original with a nice patina.
The first orders for OSI vehicle production come from Innocenti and Fat with the Fiat 2300 Coupe models and later with the Fiat 1300/1500 Familiare. As of 1962, OSI employs around 645 people and produces almost 50 cars a day. With the new managing director Giacomo Bianco, OSI will have its own design department in the Turin suburb of Borgaro from 1965 onwards. At times, up to 80 employees work here in the areas of design, development, construction and prototype construction. In 1966, OSI expanded its premises with another two buildings and the number of employees grew to 2,000. During this time, OSI is also repeatedly looking at alternatives for conventional steel bodies. Various prototypes with aluminum or fiberglass bodies are created, as well as a model made of vacuum-formable plastic that was part of a collaboration with Alpine Engineering and Mabon-Chemical. To get a good idea of the car, we advise you to come to one of the viewing days.
