Ferves Ranger
Technically the Ranger
used the engine and transmission of the 500, and the suspension of the
600. The wheelbase was 1330mm for the two wheel drive version and 1550mm for the 4x4.
In
1966 at the Turin Motorshow, Ferves (Ferrari Veicoli Speciali) revealed
a new 'off-road' variant based on the Fiat 500 and 600. Initially with
four seats or two plus a cargo area, in 1967 a four-wheel-drive variant
was introduced, followed in 1969 by the Ranger Rallye. This featured improvements
to most areas as well as new fog lights, roll bar, protection for the front
and rear lights. Production stopped in 1970 after about 600 examples had been built.
