The last thing we’d expect to see was a BMW M1 in the typical “barn find” conditions: dust, flat tires and some stuff covering its nose and roof. But this is it. The former italian owner has driven this car for 7,329 kms and then he left it in a garage; of course something bad has happened… Read More Odd barn find: 1981 BMW M1
The seller of this ’65 Spider Veloce says hat this car has been completely restored to a Pebble Beach level also thanks to new parts coming from Italy. Indeed the car looks beautiful: the red paint shines, the soft top looks perfect and the interiors look very nice and correct; the seats in particular are… Read More Almost Pebble: 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider Veloce
This is for sure one of the best color made for the glorious E9, especially when shining like this one and mated with beige leather interiors: I had one with the same color combo so I know well what I’m talking about. The seller says that this car has 79K original miles and the blue… Read More Tundra green: 1970 BMW 2800 CS
This car is said to have been owned by a member of the Cinzano family, the famed italian brand of bitters drinks. Of course it has some special features. The first of which is a Nardi intake mainfold still under a single carburetor: we’d expect to see more than one in a tuned car but… Read More Don’t drink & drive: 1966 Lancia Flavia 1800 Coupé
This Sunbeam Venezia (chassis #009/145) is one of the first made and one of the very few cars survived so far: actually this has not survived well but still it is in one piece only. That’s easy for these cars to have a nice body as it’s made of aluminium so rust is never a… Read More Alu look & feel: 1964 Sunbeam Venezia by Touring
This is one of the best among all the Giulia Spider projects seen so far and, nonetheless, that’s a wrap for the year 2016 which is leaving us in few hours. One of the best, as we just said, because this is a car which carries all the years it has, but at the same time… Read More Perfect project: 1963 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider
This is the first Giulia Sprint GT (chassis #AR614694) painted in a pale salmon shade: we’ve seen these cars painted in any color but we didnt’ believe that someone could have such a bad taste. Indeed here the point isn’t about respecting the originality but simply to have at least a little respect of a… Read More Spoiled salmon: 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT
As it often happens because of our ignorance, we didn’t know that a small batch of Alfa 1900 Berlina like this one were assembled in Belgium by Imperia coachworks, like this one is said to be. We didn’t find much about this shop but at least we know hat it still exists in Liege, Belgium,… Read More Made in Belgium: 1953 Alfa Romeo 1900
This is the first time we see a 101 series Giulietta Spider with small rear lights; we used to know that these cars had an “interim” series but we have always seen them as lwb 750 series. That’s it, a beautiful triple black Giulietta which has been clearly fully restored; the seller has provided an… Read More Triple black: 1962 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider
The last thing we would expect to see installed on a Mercedes 190 SL is an Abarth exhaust: you never stop learning and that’s it. Indeed the seller says that this car is equipped with the italian exhaust since 1971, the year before this car had its second repaint (after the original one). It is said to… Read More Abarth equipped: 1956 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL
