Čips the Fića
Mali, žut, prgav, podmitljiv. Zvezda Instagrama, Fejsbuka, Voždovca i Zemuna. Ne dajte da vas zavara par slatkih okruglih očiju – za njega prepreke ne postoje. Rođen u Jugoslaviji krajem 1978., živeo je punih 37 godina u Pirotu sa svojim prvim vlanikom pre nego što je postao stanovnik Beograda. Spavao u garaži, mažen i pažen, za skoro četiri decenije na svom kilometar satu skupio je
tek nešto više od 60.000 kilometara. A onda se na njegovom levom prozoru našao papirić sa onim najtežim natpisom – “NA PRODAJU FIĆA”…
Čips je bio gospodin pravi Fića, za kojim se tragalo godinama. Po Beogradu, Šumadiji, Vojvodini, čak i Italiji. Dok, sasvim slučajno i neočekivano, kao što to obično biva, nije iz Niša taj papirić sa natpisom došao do pravih ljudi, iz Autoslavia porodice. Ostalo je priča za sebe, koja tek sledi…
Ovo je stranica namenjena svima nama koji volimo Čipsa, svima onima koji imaju i vole svoje Fiće, i svima onima koji nam uvek poklone svoj najveći osmeh i pozdrav kada nas sretnu na semaforu, vide na ulici ili pozdrave na parkingu. Posvećena Autoslavia porodici, Mladenu i njegovom Crvenom Fići i Deutu Nekromanseru – doktoru Maretu iz Zemuna, bez kog bi Čips još uvek žmirkao na dinami i kotrljao se sa starim kaiševima. Kao i svima onima koji nam se sklanjaju na autoputu iz brze trake. :)
On je brz, on je sladak, on je dasa beogradskih ulica;
On ima najbolju bulumentu putnika na svetu, zastavu Jugoslavije na retrovizoru, sopstvenu ekipu fotografa, blogera i muzičara, svoje ćebence kad je hladno, ženu vozača i svoj servis u kom se sluša isključivo rokenrol. On je, on je:
Jovanin žuti Fića!

Welcome to the official page of Chips, the yellow F**a;
Biggest star of Belgrade streets, a timeless classic and a car with a strong personality. The Zastava 750 (Застава 750) was a supermini made by the Serbian car maker Zavod Crvena Zastava. It was a version of the Fiat 600 made under licence from 1965. Zastava 750 is widely known by its nickname "Fića". Fićas are known as indestructible and reliable, recognised as a symbol of an era, they were movie stars and family members. Whole families with luggage traveled across Yugoslavia and further, to Greece, Spain, France, Germany... Every year. Trough snow, rain, mud... Fića was always getting where he intended to go. Whoever kept their Fića till today is a rich person; whoever sold theirs will never stop regretting it. Production of the Zastava 750 began on 18 October 1955 and ended on 18 November 1985. The car's popularity has started increasing in the last years, partly from the low fuel consumption and very cheap price as a second hand vehicle. Also it starting to become a symbol for nostalgia, and many youngsters that need cheap utilitarian vehicle with a bohemian status symbol are buying this car as a second hand vehicle. Because of that prices have risen in the last couple of years and many fan clubs have emerged. Chips is by far the most popular Zastava 750. He lives in Belgrade, Serbia, surrounded by car lovers and a few more of his kind; he has a female driver, his own team of photographers, videographers, bloggers and mechanics.
