Weasel1984 ◊ 2012-10-15 23:05	We have two of them listed as 314: /vehicle_168184-Fiat-314.html /vehicle_53589-Fiat-314.html Let's say that the body maker remains still unclear.

esagamma718 ◊ 2012-10-24 14:23	It's a Fiat 309 bodied by Orlandi. 306, 309 and 314 frequently had identical body with different lenghts (314 was the shortest model, 306 the longest). Note: many Italian coaches have stylized wings on the front grille, that remids of a "V", even if first letter of the coachbuilder name was not "V". -- Last edit: 2012-10-24 14:26:00
