SAC#776 :Fiat 1100 (1400 ? ) from Vietnam

[SACO]

Yes ! from Vietnam ! 

[D-type]

As everyone from Vietnam seems to be named Ng is this Mr Ng's home built sports car.

[SACO]

I don't know the name of the builder, but we shall say that his name is Ng !

[SACO]

Pros !

I've been unable to find the puzzle car, but could it have been a Fiat 1200 Trasformabile in a previous and better life?

[SACO]

Yes , it's a Fiat but not a 1200 by my source !
Locked for you !

[ropat53]

Fiat 1100 spider?

[SACO]

Not a Fiat 1100 !

"hiếc xe hiệu Fiat AutoUnion sản xuất năm 1956 duy nhất tại Việt Nam"
Google translation is:
"AutoUnion Fiat brand cars produced in 1956 only in Vietnam"
And the car doesn't belong to Mr Ng, it seems to belong to Mrs Nguyen Hien Hong a Saigon business woman, owner of the  Hồng Cường Club and President of a collector car club.

I was only able to find something about this car when I searched "Viet Nam""Fiat"

[ropat53]

I also found a Vietnam car site that says it's a "1950 Fiat 1400 Cabriolet"??

What ever it is, it's a highly modified car with probably some Fiat parts left.

And now, looking for Mrs Nguyen Hien Hong, I found a Vietnamese page describing her collection,  The name od the car is "Fiat Auto-Union".  I also found this rather strange Foogle-translated description

"The unique car that she owned included Lambretta BerLin also known as Old Blue, Fiat produced only in 1956 AutoUnion in Vietnam or the BMW collection 3 wheel life 1954 with white-black version 2, Honda, Honda 65 rare lifetime lifetime 1965 or a unique level of motorcycle with copper overalls truss, the renowned C50 and. .."

Congrats to ropat53 !

[SACO]

Yes ! Not easy to know the origin of this car; doubtless with a mixture of numerous parts !
A Fiat Auto-union 1100/1400 ?
1 point for  ropat53 !
