Mule of Fiat 1300/1500, spotted in 1959 or 1960.

Ok, now we should have covered all the period Fiats...  ;) But I think Thorax is the right one (not me  >:().

Not very sure the car on the left is the same. I think it's a Fiat 125 mule.

Right, I have this as a 124 from 1965. Thorax gets the point, well done.

For sure the dark coloured car is very different but could it just be another 124 with slightly more finalised styling?

I think it's a 125 mule indeed due to the style: note the risen edges on top of the front wings: it's a typical detail of the 125.
