The last evolution of the sports cars built by Zagato on a Lancia Appia base is the Sport, also known as “swb” and, apparently, designed by Ercole Spada. Swb as the wheelbase had been shortened by 16cm but, apart from that, this model also differed aesthetically in other aspects including the front and other details… Read More Red and low: 1961 Lancia Appia Sport by Zagato
Do you remember the Fiat 600 built by Scioneri, released a few weeks ago? That is a very rare car but this is even more so. In fact we did not expect to see another one published in such a short time, let alone the convertible version of which there will still be not a… Read More Rare silver: 1964 Fiat 600 Cabriolet by Scioneri
It’s an Alfa Romeo, it’s rare, it’s convertible, it’s a barn find: each of these four elements, taken alone, is worthy of consideration, let alone if taken all together. As for the history of this car, we literally report the seller’s description which is detailed and clarifying: “The first recorded owner of this Pinin Farina… Read More Three nations army: 1952 Alfa Romeo 1900C Cabriolet by Pininfarina
In the production history of Alfa Romeo, the letter E indicated the “Veloce” model of the Giulietta Sprint, however it was not always this way. If in fact this is true (but with Alfa Romeo you can never be 100% sure) as regards the Veloce of the first 750 series, the subsequent 101 series had… Read More The E letter: 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Veloce
Don’t be surprised to see that we have published this car: I have owned the same model and I know what I’m talking about. The S2 coupé, one of the rarest models of the 944 lineage (it is much easier to find the spider version of the same model for sale, although the number of… Read More Transaxle breed: 1991 Porsche 944 S2
From the managers of colani.org, the foundation that refers to one of the most eclectic designers and manufacturers in the history of the automobile, we have been told about this “car”, driven to break the speed record for non-supercharged cars in 1991. The attempt was successful because this prototype not only participated in the competition,… Read More Land speed record: 1991 Colani Corvette Prototype Racer
Ladies and gentlemen, they are still out there, perhaps not as many as ten or twenty years ago, but good hunters are able to discover them. These cars are the last of their kind probably bought forty or fifty years ago by owners born at the turn of the 30s and 40s who followed an… Read More Blind horses: 1964 Ferrari 250 GTE
As fans of classic cars we believe that any car, from the most beautiful and famous to the ugliest and least known, has the dignity of being published. Indeed, often the most “obscure” cars often have an interesting story behind them, often linked to the dream of one or two men. This brand, Gilbern, it… Read More The butcher’s car: 1963 Gilbern GT 1800
We must admit that, if until 4-5 years ago finding some Appia Zagato for sale was a recurring event, for a couple of years now we have been seeing very few of them. The specimen covered by this article is, moreover, a particular version. It is in fact one of the very few that have… Read More An early one: 1957 Lancia Appia GT by Zagato
The “big spiders” produced entirely in Milan took longer than the Giulietta to enter the hearts of the fans of the brand, but now their value has far exceeded their smaller sisters. Obviously what has been said is valid under the same conditions: the 2000 version (or type 102) of the Touring-bodied spiders is, from… Read More Empty heart: 1960 Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider by Touring
