@karl, hard to tell, but that's what they seem to be.

@karl, I'll see if we can find out. Brooklin made a 1/32 Fiat 5oo e for the official introduction. This may be another promotional model for Fiat.

@karl, I think that was the model of the new electric 500. This one on the bench looks more like a vintage 500.

I understand that the Fiat is for the Museum of Modern Art. I'm not sure of the scale at the moment, but I should find out soon.

Julie say that the scale of the fiat 500 is 1/28

@renato-bardi, it's actually 1:31, made for the Museum of Modern Art.

Apparently it says 1/28 on the box. 1/28 or 1/31, they are both strange scales.
