Alfa Romeo, before deciding to produce the Giulia TI Super, was at the top of the Touring category of racing but, given the competition from foreign sedans, it could not remain indifferent. Thus the TI Super (type 105.16) was born in 501 specimens sold at a price 60% higher than the Giulia TI (and despite… Read More White sleeper: 1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia TI Super
It is a car built entirely in Milan: the Portello factory and the Touring body shop were in fact so close that it was possible to walk from one to the other in half an hour. Yet, the original black license plate is that of Turin, the (once) automobile capital of Italy. In a few… Read More Black plate: 1953 Alfa Romeo 1900C Sprint by Touring
Another day, another Fiat, but once again we are talking about a very special and very rare model. Very special as it is one of the very few (probably a hundred, but it is almost impossible to have a certain number, so we are talking about orders of magnitude) Fiat 600 Viotti in the coupé… Read More Little scorpion: 1956 Fiat 750 Coupé “Derivazione Abarth” by Viotti
To be cool, a car doesn’t have to be expensive: that was as true then as it is now. Even the coachbuilders knew it sixty years ago, indeed, they had made a great effort to give a touch of originality and style to cars destined for the mass market, precisely because it was in this… Read More Small car, big style: 1957 Fiat 600 “Smart” by Bertone
This Giulia is one of the extremely rare station wagon versions, never produced for the general public but rather as vehicles generally used by law enforcement or for Italian highway services and very few other purposes. In fact, there were only four coachbuilders in Italy to whom this car was commissioned: Colli, Giorgetti, Introzzi, and… Read More Rare patrol: 1970 Alfa Romeo Giulia 1600 Giardinetta by Grazia
It is rare to find a car owned by the same person for 50 years, and even rarer to find it in this condition, especially as we are talking about a special model. It is in fact a limited edition, called Can Am, imported into the United States in 1000 units built to celebrate the… Read More One owner special: 1974 Porsche 914 2.0 LE Can Am
It’s not the first time we’ve seen a Fiat 1100 T van set up differently from the standard version, but it’s the first time we’ve seen it in this livery. There are probably very few people in the world who do not know this carbonated drink, so any digression on it is somewhat superfluous. On… Read More Premium delivery: 1970 Fiat 1100 T “Coca Cola” by Icardi
It is not the first time that we have published a Porsche of this type which, on balance, is one of the rarest versions of the legendary 356. The fact that it is rare is easily understood: it is certainly not the most beautiful version of the 356, on the contrary, it remains a mystery… Read More Almost convertible: 1961 Porsche 356B T5 Notchback
This is what a car that has been sitting in a shed for many decades looks like. A car, by the way, never restored since its pre-WWII production. In fact this car, during its long life, has seen a lot of history pass by it, and we are sure that it will probably still see… Read More Seasoned star: 1939 Mercedes-Benz 170V Cabriolet A
Zagato has always built very particular and easily recognizable cars, however – perhaps an unpopular opinion – few of them can be defined as “beautiful” according to our tastes. Of course, this is an opinion (and we all know what people say about opinions) but the point is that Zagato’s construction philosophy was not devoted… Read More Trademark blue: 1965 Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint by Zagato
