Here’s the best part – the door opens to the front, with the steering column moving on a U-joint!

I love it!  Note the shifter to the left, with the opening through the upholstery. And the emergency brake mounted on the round quadrant on the wheelwell

Nicely done interior!

The big improvement for 1957 was a 50CC increase to 300CC, and a steel connecting rod.  The earlier cars had an aluminum connecting rod which apparently was known to fail!  .

So, This car has the 300 CC engine with steel connecting rod.  We can also see a slide type carburetor similar to motorcycles.

The undercarriage is pretty clean, and it’s been undercoated.

More undercarriage.  The battery box has had some corrosion, that’s the only rust or rust repair I could find.

Nice wheels and tires. The hubcaps, however, look original and have some blemishes. Overall this is a very nicely restored car, but a few things like the hubcaps and the sunroof cover shrinkage keep it from being a show car.

Isetta 300!

THERE IS NO COOLING OFF PERIOD UNLESS YOU OBTAIN A CONTRACT CANCELLATION OPTION.  California law does not provide for a “cooling off” period for vehicle lease or purchase contracts. Therefore, you cannot later cancel such a contract simply because you change your mind, decide the vehicle costs too much, or wish you had acquired a different vehicle. After you sign a motor vehicle purchase or lease contract, it may only be cancelled with the agreement of the seller or lessor or for legal cause, such as fraud. However, California law does require the seller to offer a 2 day contract cancellation option on used vehicles with a purchase price of less than $40,000, subject to certain statutory conditions. See the vehicle contract cancellation option agreement for details.
