Weren't those cars rear engined originally? I know of a few that drag raced back in the day on the west coast with air cooled VW engines.

Where the hell did you find Fiat 500 in US?
Its legendary small car in europe, mostly Italy and Poland, it was so lightweight and small that my dad and his friends took it from parking lot to the 3rd floor of the building and left in front of the car owner's door (their friend) :D
