It has been a long time since we published a 356 to restore, and the main reason is that these project are becoming rarer and rarer as almost all the barn finds have been trailed out of their barns. However, as this car demonstrates, there is still something out there. This car is a model year 1954 356… Read More Rescue me: 1954 Porsche 356 Cabrio
That’s not actually usual to find a car with such ourageous style in a paddock but actually Lancia built also a prototype racer based on this strange Zagato creation so, if you know some italian cars history, you won’t be astonished to see on of these around a track. This particular car (1 0f 25… Read More Outrageous racer: 1965 Lancia Flavia Sport by Zagato
No papers, no engine, no build year: these are the first things to deal with if you are going to buy this car which needs much more than an engine and a transmission. Indeed the “1966” put in the title is just a guess: the seller didn’t tell about it nor we could know it… Read More More than bravery: 1966 Lancia Flaminia 2500 3C Convertibile by Touring
We are perfectly aware that these cars aren’t much loved by most people but a small bunch of passionate fans but, because we are part of these, it was obligatory for us to publish this very early KG. Very early as 1955 was the first production year for the Karmann Ghia and in that year… Read More Low gravity, Lower chassis: 1955 Karmann Ghia Coupè
More than a proper coupé this Granluce (something like “great light”) is basically a two door sedan: actually back in the early fifties this was the cutting edge Fiat model just after, of course, the 8V. And few knows that this car was originally designed to be pushed by the famous 8V Fiat engine, mostly because… Read More Panoramic view: 1954 Fiat 1900 “Granluce” Coupé
Veloce means “Fast”, so this car in particular (chassis #1495F*03305) should be very fast as it is powered by a 350 c.i. Chevrolet engine and an automatic transmission. Of course purists (and not only) will have goosebumps watching how deep this car has been modified: basically nothing remains of a Giulietta Spider but the body (bonnet not… Read More Misinterpretation: 1958 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce
This is the first time we publish a Corvette C3 and that’s because of a good reason: this is one of the 80 Corvette L88 produced in 1968 and one of the 216 ever produced between 1967 and 1969. The story about this model is quite odd: basically Chevrolet never promoted this car and somehow… Read More 10 seconds club: 1968 Chevrolet Corvette L88

Sometimes it happens to spot an Italia 2000 for sale and so here it is another one: this one is painted in “Bianco Pergamena” (parchment white) and it seems in good conditions. Indeed the first things that we use to check when we see an Italia 2000 for sale are the interiors trims which are the most difficult… Read More Top zustand: 1961 Italia 2000 by Vignale
This swb Giulietta Spider (chassis #1495.03151) has a particular history as its life has been suspended for 35 years during which it slept in an Alfa Romeo dealer garage. Indeed the seller says that this car has been taken in 1977 by Alfa Romeo of Tacoma for an engine rebuild: other than that the car… Read More The lost 750D: 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider
