In 1966, GIANNINI made a new model based on the new Fiat 500 F. The aim was to fit together 2 Fiat Giardiniera engines and make one 4 boxer cylinders engine let on a special oil case. This new engine, of a cubic capacity of 700 cc gave 42 HP at 5000 rounds/minute and allowed the car to reach 130 km/h.
Several projects were followed but without success. In front of the important cost of the project, GIANNINI had to forget this idea. However, this project interested all the magazines and allowed GIANNINI to promote her know-how.
It's important to say that a 4 cylinders engine GIANNINI has been kept for shows in italians expositions.
