White whale: 1960 BMW 501

It’s white, it’s dry, has a V8 engine and it’s nearly complete – a great calling card for any classic car to be restored. And even more so if the car in question is a BMW 501, quite rare from the point of view of the units produced and above all for how many are… Read More White whale: 1960 BMW 501

White racer: 1962 OSCA 1600 GT by Zagato

Twin cam engine, aluminum body, covered headlights, perspex windows and double bubble roof: this information is already enough – for an enthusiast – to identify an Italian sports car built in the 1950s or 1960s. In the specific case it is a rare OSCA 1600 GT, one of the 98 produced by the Maserati brothers… Read More White racer: 1962 OSCA 1600 GT by Zagato

#349: 1955 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint

Built in May 1955, this is one of the oldest Giulietta Sprints on the road today – basically nothing changes compared to those built in 56 or 57 but we all know that, for a collector, the year is very important. We actually saw an older one, even built in 1954, it was in poor… Read More #349: 1955 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint

Almost Sportiva: 1969 Moretti 850 Special S4

Many do not know that, in addition to the Sportiva based on Fiat 850, Moretti also produced two subsequent versions, the S2 and the S4: we did not even know of the latter’s existence. In fact, the seller says that according to him this is a rare car: according to us it is very rare… Read More Almost Sportiva: 1969 Moretti 850 Special S4

The vanished world

It’s been 49 years since Rick McCloskey (aka RickMack), fresh out of photography school at San Fernando Valley State College in Northridge, spent every Wednesday night throughout the summer of 1972 photographing a generation of boys and girls in first half of their twenties, cruising and meeting with their cars – stock, partially modified or… Read More The vanished world

Producer’s car: 1963 Lancia Appia Sport by Zagato

This rare Appia Sport is said to be available to the public for the first time after 40 years during which it was owned by only one person. This person is (or was, we did not understand) a producer known in the studio environment, Arthur Vitarelli, it seems that among his productions there were titles… Read More Producer’s car: 1963 Lancia Appia Sport by Zagato

Cosworth power: 1973 Ford Escort RS 1600 MKI

The name of this car designed at the European Ford factory probably won’t communicate much to American readers, but for European – and especially British – enthusiasts, the RS 1600 badge means a lot. In fact, this car was built from 1970 to 1974 in only 1139 specimens: so don’t be surprised not to see… Read More Cosworth power: 1973 Ford Escort RS 1600 MKI

Venomous: 1971 Abarth Scorpione 1300 S

From Portugal comes this Abarth Scorpione which is a rare car in itself, plus this seems to be the S version, so produced in a few dozen units. We do not know, apart from the difference in power, the details that differentiate the “normal” version (if normal can be defined) from the S version, we… Read More Venomous: 1971 Abarth Scorpione 1300 S

From VI to L.A: 1949 Fiat 1100B Cabriolet

A Fiat 1100B Cabriolet is a rare car even in Italy, let alone in the USA, especially if it has never been restored and still has its original black plate. If we were to imagine when this car ended up in California, we could think of the 70s when a large number of Italian cars… Read More From VI to L.A: 1949 Fiat 1100B Cabriolet

Red over white: 1959 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint

Look, a white Alfa Romeo repainted in red: that’s strange, isn’t it? Sarcasm aside, this has been the fate of most Italian classic cars over the decades. As is evident from the Italian newspaper clipping dated 1964, the reality is that in those years only 5% of the cars registered in Italy were red (a… Read More Red over white: 1959 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint
