Siata (Societa Italiana Auto Trasforrnazioni Accessori) was an auto tuning company dating back to 1926 that initially sold performance parts to modify and tune cars manufactured by Fiat. After WWII, the company began making its own sports cars under the Siata brand until it's demise in 1970.

In 1968, Siata launched the Siata Spring, a sports car derived on the rear-engine Fiat 850 platform featuring retro-styling similar to the British MG TD series roadster. Production was limited to around 3,500 examples of which approximately 10-percent are said to remain today.

Features include: 843-cc, four-cylinder, water-cooled Fiat engine with four-speed manual transmission, fold-down windshield, heater, tonneau cover and convertible top - It is factory equipped with genuine Borrani wire wheels and Carello headlamps

Curb weight on its all-steel body is a mere 1,400 pounds. Odometer reads 41,000 miles and is believed to be actual as stated on title. This is a fun and unusual, easy to maintain, true Italian roadster that is capable of highway speeds up tp 75-mph.
