Fiat 500 rally arrives in Barga
It would seem that the Bar del Paolo Gas ( otherwise known as Paolo Marchetti ) on the Fosso is gradually becoming the centre of all things motorised in Barga. The Vespa club already uses the bar as its home base and this morning were added to the collection, the Fiat 500 club – one of the classic cars of post-war Italy. More than 70 examples pulled up and parked on the Fosso as part of a Raduno organised by Danilo Lenzi from Fosciandora and supported by the Comune of Barga. The Mayor of Barga, Marco Bonnini was there this morning to welcome the cars and their drivers. Click on the link below for a short interview recorded with Marco Bonnini ( in Italiano).
