September 25 And here it is in Italy… April 15 And yet it’s still possible to find some Veloce to restore, and this car proofs that. The seller says that this car (chassis 1495F-11613), despite of its red paint – or what remains of it – was born black with red interiors: a beautiful and… Read More Saving private F: 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce
We thought that we wouldn’t have seen another Murena GT (after having published a black one for sale on Ebay a couple of years ago) for sale in the next years but here it is another one. Differently from the black one, which seemed a survivor in top conditions, this one (VIN #6900414) has the… Read More 2nd of eleven: 1969 Murena GT
This car is basically unknown to most classic cars nuts, and that’s because it was produced for no more than five years and only 35 specimens saw the light. It was the fiberglass era and so many enterpreneurs tried to produce their own “supercars”; unfortunately building a car, selling it and having a profit it’s not… Read More Rare bird: 1973 LMX Sirex HCS
That’s not a news that Hollywood celebrities, with scarce exceptions, often used to reward themselves with an european supercar when they arrived at the top of their popularity: Ava Gardner was one of those. Indeed she chose this HK500 (chassis HK-Z1) in the late fifties. The auctioneer says that this car was delivered new to her,… Read More Ava’s black one: 1959 Facel Vega HK 500
Whilst the seller of this Appia Convertibile (2nd series, chassis #812.01.3810) is not sure about what shade of gray his car is painted of, we are pretty sure that this is a very nice project. That is because this car appears, first of all, very solid. I have a Vignale Convertibile in the same conditions… Read More Two shades of grey: 1960 Lancia Appia Convertibile by Vignale
What we have realized is that the mightier sister of the GT has always been underrated, but its days of glory are coming soon. We believe that the main reason because this car had not the same appeciation of the 105 coupé series its mostly because this car have never had that “sporty” appeal: this… Read More Flooded six: 1966 Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint
As the seller says, he bought this car in 1973, and yet this car was 10 years old. It’s a Bianchina Cabriolet painted in a kind of BRG (but the original color was white) which makes a great contrast with the tan interiors. Also the white soft top makes a great contrast with the green shade, making… Read More 42 years long love: 1963 Autobianchi Bianchina Cabriolet
We perfectly agree with you about the fact that this ’61 Karmann Ghia needs a huge work to be restored, but that’s true as well that finding another one cheaper than this is basically impossible. The seller says few things about this car: it was put in storage approximatively 20 years ago, it run when… Read More Cheapest ever: 1961 Karmann Ghia Cabriolet
This is one of those cases where the pictures do not fully correspond to the truth. Indeed under that odd “skin” is hidden the chassis and mechanicals of a 1952 Porsche 356 (once coupé, VIN #11471): to make a long story short, the car was bought new and brought to a race where it had… Read More A bad day, a new life: 1952 Porsche 356 Coupè
I remember, not more than 10 years ago (when I yet started to scrutinise every classic car ad all around the world) that it was plenty of ’67 GT 390 fastback for sale and you could bring home a concours specimen for no more than $35K. Of course time passes (and inflation grows) so for… Read More Bruce’s Burgundy: 1967 Ford Mustang 390GT Fastback
