Once these cars were a bit mistreated, considered more like motorized toys than real cars, and for this reason most have been lost. Indeed these are not cars in which you can travel 1000 miles to take your family and their luggage on a beach holiday, yet these are cars that have the power to… Read More Yellow bug: 1968 Meyers Manx Dune Buggy
When we say the word “rare”, we are certainly not referring to this car which, in fact, is unique. It is a one-off commissioned in 1950 to Stabilimenti Farina, the same ones who, together with Vignale (the latter in the last period), built the Cisitalia 202: the resemblance is there and it can be clearly… Read More One-off: 1950 Lancia Aurelia B10 by Farina
It’s already been a while since we published a Simca 1200S, and the reason is that lately they only find one at high prices, but this could be an opportunity for someone to get their hands on an affordable specimen. Obviously the reason is easy to understand: the car needs some work starting with the… Read More Stuck silver: 1968 Simca 1200S Coupé by Bertone
We always aim to understand exactly what the name of this particular Abarth is, as some call it “Scorpio” and others don’t. Obviously there is something we are missing. Never mind, the important thing is not the name but the car itself which in this case is in pretty bad shape: it certainly hasn’t seen… Read More Was red: 1959 Abarth 850 Coupè by Allemano
Unfortunately we have to make do with a few poor photos to evaluate this very rare Pininfarina coupé. We published another one, maybe in 2017, but that was in worse condition than this car which doesn’t seem to need anything as it seems preserved: this is also what the seller claims, stating that it is… Read More White and rare: 1958 Fiat 1100 Coupé by Pininfarina
Years ago (yes, it gets old) we found another 1955 Karmann Ghia and haven’t seen one for sale since, until today. We had decided that it deserved to be published as, apart from its ratty look, it is not every day to find one for sale belonging to the first production batch, unfortunately most of… Read More Oldest in town: 1955 Karmann Ghia Coupé
The GT Junior is one of the cars I’ve remained most fond of: it’s not a monster of power but it has character, a lot of character. Probably, if I had to choose now, I would opt for a Giulia Sprint Gt for its 1600 cc engine, at least to make the most of it… Read More Cromodora equipped: 1967 Alfa Romeo GT junior
As soon as we saw this ad we stopped looking elsewhere, it was enough for us to see the profile of this wonderful coupé. It is a 6C 2500 SS built in 1938, i.e. the decade before the Second World War in which Alfa Romeo, especially in collaboration with the nearby Touring body shop, churned… Read More Unmolested beauty: 1938 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Super Sport by Touring
A little over 20 years ago I remember stumbling upon a ’63 Corvette for sale, in good condition, in Silver Blue. The asking price was $25,000. Although attracted by the car, I thought that the price was too high and gave it up: it is clear that if I had chosen the profession of fortune… Read More Split window: 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Coupé
