 Fiat 1100 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fiat 1100 was firstly introduced in 1939 as an updated version of the 508 "Balilla": its real name was 508 C, and had a look similar to '36 Fiat 500 "Topolino" and to the middle-class 1500, with the typical late-30s' heart-shaped front grid.
The very last 1100 model, born that year, was the 1100 R (R = Redesigned): it had a longer, straighter and slimmer line, with a square back and a front-end look not-so-different from its bigger sister 124.
The latter was produced also in post-war time (1949), with a curvy trunk on the backside and the new name 1100 E. Both 508 C and 1100B were available also as van and taxi, both with longer wheelbase.

 the origins of Polski Fiat
Polski Fiat 508 was the first Polish automobile made in thousands (2000 annually) from the home manufactured mechanical components.
The whole automobile, which was slightly re-engineered by the team led by Zygmunt Okolow, went into production in 1935 as Polski Fiat 508, as well as the 2.5 tone lorry Polski Fiat 621.
One should know that Fiats were hardly known in Poland then, there was also a disadvantageous statement in the Fiat contract which claimed that PZinz had to abandon the construction of the own competitive cars.

 Simca Automobile Company 1959
FIAT already produced the 508 Balilla, which approached the ideal of Pigozzis promised success, but FIAT also had a small car project, the 500 Topolino, with even more economic and utilitarian characteristics.
The purchase of and activities at the 50 000 m² factory at Nanterre began in 1935 and, for a short period, it was limited to the assembly of the FIAT 508 Balilla, sold under the FIAT FRANCE mark.
With the differences like that which occurred for the Balilla and preceding FIAT models, the new SIMCA-FIAT, called Cinq (Type 5), was built completely in France, although being based on the FIAT projects of which Pigozzi and his technicians were familiar from the factory of Turin.

Dopo la presentazione del modello Fiat 508 al Salone di Parigi, Henri Pigozzi decide di assemblare il modello 508 Balilla presso la sua azienda S.A.F.A.F. (Societè Anonyme Francaises pour la Fabbricatione des Automobiles Fiat) per evitare gli alti costi doganali per auto già montate.
La produzione comincia il 1° luglio del 1935 e dopo 3 giorni Henri Pigozzi viene eletto in assemblea straordinaria, amministratore generale della prima fabbrica SIMCA-FIAT.
L’importatore esclusivo della Fiat per la Francia era il vulcanico Teodoro Enrico Bartolomeo Pigozzi, che su richiesta di G. Agnelli, aveva riorganizzato la rete distributiva francese.

In 1924, Pigozzi became a general agent for FIAT in France and, in 1926, started a distributorship for FIATs called SAFAF (Société Anonyme Français des Automobiles FIAT).
The actions of Pigozzi, even if it apparently hazardous, were actually supported by a well prepared plan: it was precisely the difficult situation of the national market which had encouraged him to estimate that by offering the public a variety of small-engined, popular cars at a moderate price, it would become a great commercial success.

Resisting the call to ascend, we rounded the escalator and found a sampling of race classics--a '24 Bugatti Type 35 Grand Prix, a '34 Fiat 508 S Ballila Coppa d'Oro, the '30 Alfa Romeo 6C 1750, and a '37 Peugeot Darl Mat.
Back downstairs, if you're not captured by the bookstore, you can examine the new Lamborghini and Bugatti by the exit, or the special room filled with sculpted hood ornaments and cases of miniature working motors (as well as some full-size examples).
Next stop is the war room, a desert diorama featuring the Schwimmwagen already mentioned, a VW Kübelwagen and two cycles--a BMW R 75 and a Zundapp, both tagged "Russie." The beautiful wood hull of the long sleek "Sagritta" is next.
