ah, just found the car I mentioned, hm.. its not a 600 but a 1976 Autobianchi 500 Giardinetta...
and that looks cute to me... at least it looks smaller/lower then the 600 Multipla I think.
it looks fun, not fast :-) I think people love this, your small kids in the back

Those rear camber angles are scary but then enough Fiat clubs that could help I think.
btw that video, hahah, sound seven better then I remembered, also inside, sounds like a proper even fast car, sound and feel can do a lot, also some look pretty planted and almost no overhang, so yeah, proper small fun race cars.
A few random images, from 55 years ago, which may be of interest.
Leipzig 69
Baghdad, in more prosperous days, a good smattering of Americana.
Saigon 69
Saigon 69, a fair bit to feast your eyes on.
Tokyo 72, air quality looks tip top!
Jerusalem 69, what is the small white car turning right?
Spelling may be a bit iffy, translated.

I’ve been able to confirm, this is indeed Kabul 69.
While most of the rest of the world has moved on, it’s saddening to think Kabul is probably in a worse position than 55 years ago.
Most of that area in the middle east is in a worse state than 55 years ago, Iran, Afganistan, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon & Pakistan all in a much worse state than in those first two decades post WW2.While most of the rest of the world has moved on, it’s saddening to think Kabul is probably in a worse position than 55 years ago.

DDR town planners predicting that cars were to get much larger in the future with the size of those parking spaces... but then to spend the next 20-years manufacturing Trabant's & Wartburg's. daqinggregg said:
Is that an MG in the centre of the shot next to the Jeep? Jeep is likely to be a Mitsubishi - made under license from Willys from 1953 for the local market. Unbelievably made it to '98 before poor safety and emissions performance killed it off
Chevrolet Corvair Monza GT
designed by Larry Shinoda and Tony Lapine in 1962
had such strange roof/door like many years later also a certain kit-kar had, forgot that name.
don't look at the crazy ugly looking opening headlight system, what did I just said, don't look
this picture/ad looks a bit like that horror movie, "the car" advertisement
