The seller of this Moretti Sportiva doesn’t say anything about the build year of this car but, as he says it’s an “S” version, we believe it’s a 1967 car. Actually the seller doesn’t say anything about this project but that’s a complete car and that it has all the correct papers: of course this is… Read More Nude look/2: 1967 Moretti 850 Sportiva
As usual for french cars until the early nineties, this french delivered Dino 2000 Coupé has proper yellow headlights: the rest of the car is quite stock, including the not-running engine (which is said to be not stuck). Indeed this seems a very correct old Dino 2000: the seller says that the car has been… Read More Yellow eyes: 1967 Fiat Dino 2000 Coupé
We’ve seen other Abarths 750 Spider for sale in the past years but this (chassis #100478497) is clearly the one in worst conditions ever. That’s because this car has been for sure abandoned to elements and not in an enclosed space: the chassis metal is basically gone and whoever gets this car must be very… Read More Handle with care: 1959 Abarth 750 Spider by Allemano
This Giulia Sprint GT Veloce looks now ready for a full restoration after, as it seems, a long life among rodeos. Indeed this is a car which, although it looks dry, had some modifications to its body in the past like the flared fenders and the front spoiler: it was probably a racer during the… Read More Former racer: 1967 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT Veloce
This is one of the best colors on a Giulietta Spider and, by the way, it’s quite rare as red and white were the most chosen colors back then. The seller says that this car (chassis #AR149500406) had a previous restoration in the eighties but, of course, now it need to be deeply refreshed as… Read More More than 35: 1956 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider
The fifties and the sixties were the decades when Fiat still knew how to build sport cars: the 1600S with the O.S.C.A. engine is a proof of that. Indeed this car is equipped with the D.O.H.C. four cylinder engine built by Maserati brothers in the early fifties and the “sold” to Fiat which made a… Read More Four lights, two camshafts: 1963 Fiat 1600S O.S.C.A.
The Alpine A110 GT4 was also called “L” also because it was the longest of the Alpine A breed: it is a 2+2 car which, nonetheless, is still a light car (around 700 kgs or 1,550 pounds) pushed by a tuned Renault 8 engine. And, because this car is a model year 1965, it had the… Read More Long tail abroad: 1965 Alpine A110 GT4
Alfa Romeo didn’t just use to build twin cam vans like the F-12, but also some almost unknown cars like its offroad series, called AR51 “Matta”. This series was born at the beginning of the fifties to replace the Jeeps leaved by the US Army in order to provide Police and Fire departments around the country… Read More Twin cam offroad: 1951 Alfa Romeo AR51 “Matta”
The Swallow Doretti is not a known car at all, at least among “average” classic cars enthusiasts, and maybe that’s because it was produced in 263 specimens for two years only: 1954 and 1955. It was built by Swallow Coachbuilding Company which, before this car, used to build small, economy cars: this was a true exception… Read More Mint conditions: 1954 Swallow Doretti
