Available for auction is an incredibly rare and authentic 1980s Fiat Servizio garage sign. This remarkable sign, although no longer illuminated, still retains its captivating charm. Unfortunately, the original backing and internal electrics were not included when this sign was purchased by the seller's father.
The sign boasts vibrant colors that immediately catch the eye, showcasing its distinctiveness. While the seller believes this sign, along with others from the same era and style, may have been produced by Neon Modena, there are no stickers to confirm.
These signs were exclusive to the Italian market, making this particular piece even more exceptional. Sourced from the Florence region and previously owned by another private collector, this sign carries a unique history. Crafted from vacuum-formed plastic, the sign features embossed yellow edges that beautifully frame the piece. Despite being used outdoors, its condition is exceptional, with only minor surface scratches and no cracks or significant damage.
Measuring 39" x 20" with a depth of 2", this sign possesses an impressive size that commands attention. While currently lacking LED lighting and new backing, envisioning its full potential is simply awe-inspiring. Even in its current state, it radiates character and holds a special allure for Italian car enthusiasts and workshops.
Don't miss this opportunity to own a piece of Fiat's advertising history. The buyer is responsible for shipping, handling, and fees.

As the final moments of the auction approaches, I just want to say a special thank you to @rsamerica for your bid and thank you to everyone for your questions and the interest shown.
Kind regards
Hello everyone and thank you for viewing this auction.
I would first of all like to say a very special thank you to @rsamerica (nice to see you again and thank you for the other bid as well).
Unfortunately I have a relative in hospital at the moment and an overload of commitments and I do sincerely apologize to everyone for my late introduction and for the lack of information regarding shipping.
I just want to let everyone know that worldwide shipping of this sign is available.
I have listed below an estimated cost of the shipping based on the dimensions:
UK - £80
Europe - €150
U.S.A. - $210
The price above is just an estimate and may vary slightly (possibly less and possibly a little more). I am always keen to make sure items are very well packaged and as a result the shipping estimation may change slightly.
I always use UPS and each item is fully insured against damage or loss. Furthermore, I do not charge for the actual packaging of the items as I have an abundance of packaging material in storage. The only cost would be for the actual courier itself.
If anyone has any questions please just let me know. Due to my current working and personal commitments and the time zone difference, there may be a slight delay in my response. However, I will always reply to any message as soon as I can.
I want to thank everyone once again for the interest you have shown and I wish you all the very best of success in the auction.
Kind regards
Bid in the amount of $400
