A couple of times per year it could happen to stumble across a rare 1600S OSCA Coupé “four headlights” (273 made) and so far nothing so special. But when we read such asking price things are a bit different. The seller says that he’s in need to sell the car fast as he’s going to move… Read More Underpriced twin-cam: 1963 Fiat 1600S O.S.C.A. Coupé
Once again the seller of this car didn’t talk about the build year of this european Ford, but the front grille looks like the one installed on The Monte Carlo model so this car should have been produced between 1953 and 1955. As reader Lagunatich says, this is not a Monte Carlo but an early… Read More Uncertain birth: 1952 Ford Cométe
This is the second 1100TV by Fissore we have published here: honestly we didn’t believe to see another one for sale for years but here it is another one just one year later. Actually the seller says that this is the only car around but clearly he’s not a Classic Virus reader. Differently from the… Read More O.S.C.A. badged: 1955 Fiat 1100 TV by Fissore
We didn’t expect to find a Lancia Flavia in a deep northern region, but evidently the italian style doesn’t meet borders. This red Flavia Coupé by Pininfarina looks immaculate but, just for this reason, it is worth more than three rough photos. If this car is as good as the seller says, it should have… Read More Northern red: 1967 Lancia Flavia Coupé by Pininfarina
There are few things of this had that we don’t understand: first, what does the “Mercury Monarch conversion” matter with this microcar, second: we haven’t ever seen this model. This is a Lloyd roadster from 1958, stored in a proper barn: a fascinating place if it were not for the giant spiders that usually are… Read More Proper barn find: 1958 Lloyd 600 Roadster
It happens that some cars like this one, have a destiny tied to a one only family for many years: that is the case of this 356 (chassis #59065) which has been in the same family since 1958. Indeed the seller says that this car initially belonged to his mother in law’s brother when he was… Read More Running in the family: 1957 Porsche 356 A-T1 Coupé
Here we are again with a beautiful and elegant 403 Cabriolet, a beautiful creation of Pininfarina and for sure, one of the most beautiful cars of the Peugeot history. And again, we do not know in what year this car has been built: the seller simply doesn’t believe that such information is important, you however… Read More Beauty’s never enough: 1960 Peugeot 403 Cabriolet by Pininfarina
This van made by Lancia is the second series of the Jolly breed: the first series shared many mechanical components with the Appia while this one was born on the same basis of the Flavia. Indeed it shares the engine type 815.000 but it was made in scarcer numbers than the car on which is… Read More Classy van: 1962 Lancia Super Jolly
Well, our opinion is that this Giulietta SWB, more than a bargain, is too good to be true. However, sending an email doesn’t cost anything but a couple of minutes of your day. Indeed here we have a Giulietta in need of a total restoration: body, engine, interiors, trims, chrome, everything must be disassembled, cleaned,… Read More Autumn bargain: 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider
Update, same day: Alex, a faithful reader, italian classic car connoisseur and collector, has found a period photo of the 1949 edition of the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este where there can be seen a car similar, very similar to this one. The caption says that the car is made by Colli and that’s painted in… Read More Huge price-weight ratio: 1938 Fiat 500A barchetta by Colli
