The standard Isetta cab was cut off<br />

flush at the rear window and panelled<br />

shut. It was fitted to a custom tube<br />

frame that was essentially the same at<br />

the front, but it extended rearwards,<br />

doubling up in the motor area and<br />

extending over the top of a new<br />

full-width rear axle and differential,<br />

providing a very strong base for the<br />

load carrying area, at the expense<br />

of some additional weight. The Iso<br />

twin-piston single still provided the<br />

power. Iso Motor Italia in Madrid<br />

had the Iso license for Spain, and<br />

they built both the Isetta and the<br />

truck, renamed Isettacarro 500 (for<br />

its load capacity in kilograms), and<br />

it was distributed by autovehicules<br />

S.a., also in Madrid. Motor Italia<br />

later became associated with<br />

Borgward-Iso Española S.a., which<br />

had German connections, and later<br />

changed its name to the latter.<br />
