What happens when two people who share their passion for sports cars and motorbikes meet under the right circumstances? It depends, but if we ‘re talking about two Italians, Alessio Minchella (designer) and Alessandro Camorali (surface and product development) who met in 2010 while working at Pininfarina, the result is a new company, Camal, and a new product.
The newly formed venture’s main principle was delivering stylish products affordably available to all.The Fiat 500 was the perfect starting point, and the 500 Marcia Corta the end result.
Their goal was to give the little Italian car more character without altering its retro feel like fitting additional headlights that bring to mind old rally cars.
All changes to the bodywork are done in order to comply with the original and quite special feeling of the 500, and ensure adequate air flow to the ducts. Camal is currently looking for partners for production and distribution, with a price close to the Abath kit.

my god.... how is this sexy?!
Okay, here's some styling I can get behind as it is well done. The only potential issue is the owner who will adjust the lighting too high and blind oncoming drivers. That is until an eighty year old grandmother hits them head-on from being blinded in her Oldsmobile Aurora...party over.
Pretty cool !
maybe without those big lights it can work
Great post :)
Alessio M.
...Also without big whole it might work too.
scherzo)
Nice interpretation of old rally cars!
maybe also bonet could be black, as in many old Abarth cars, but it would be too much "tuning-style" of today.. so it's ok like it is.
Really curious moment is about the lights..
Technically it's feaseable, but will it be legal in case of production?
Good luck with realization! I hope to see it alive.
Cheers,
Rrrrroma.
