Knickerbocker Spanish fashion and a classic Fiat vintage car.
How copy legally
The man with the Knickerbocker pants beside the yellow vintage Fiat car, was drawing much attention during one of Tenerife Spain classic car shows of 2011, indeed. His outfit was once part of Spanish fashion. He looked like an olden day golf player from a Europe gone by. His companion, who dressed the part portrayed a genuine chauffeur of the roaring twenties.
The classic car depicted with the Knickerbocker is a classic Fiat. It must be Fiat 510 to judge by its square rear shape. It still has the steering wheel on the right hand side, while later models had it on the left. The 520 Fiat which looks rather similar to the one depicted here was made for left hand driving. 20000 Fiats of model 520 were sold between 1928 and 1930. However, the Knickerbocker would match any of the fiat cars of the early 1900. Indeed, there couldn't have been a more fitting ensemble. The man with the bulky knee long pants, his car, his cap as well as his driver were all rounding off a perfect picture for representing an era which was also called the Jazz age.
This 1930 or 1920 fashion was repeated by an original tool box as well as a leather travel case, which was placed in the rear of the classic car which definitely looks like a Fiat 510, as seen by its back.By the looks of it, there was a bit of a technical problem after parking this classic Fiat during one of Tenerife classic car shows Puerto Cruz. Good for the vintage car owner to be able to be comfortable with his casual trousers. Notice how they just end below the knee where they close tightly, while the rest of their cut is definitely healthy for men. I wouldn't think that the gentleman in his Knickerbockers was handling car tools for the fun of it. Notice the elegant golf cap or flat cap which rounds off his flair, by the way... A cool guy with a yellow classic Fiat. Right? From Knickerbocker back to classic car shows. Kindly note: Please, pay it forward if you liked this information.
