Well, this is not a car in the sense that we all generally mean, but we know very well that true classic car enthusiasts are first and foremost romantics who like objects like this. This micro car comes indeed from the Disneyland Autopia amusement park, during the ’60s (we suppose the early 60s) and was… Read More Amusement ride: 1960 Autopia
The owner of this Plymouth Superbird has been very clear: if you have the funds call, otherwise you are kindly asked not to disturb, and all in all it seems a right approach. The seller, however, did not use many words to describe this car: he says he has a 440 c.i. (therefore a U-Code),… Read More No funds, no call: 1970 Plymouth Superbird
1954 was the only year of production of this strange roadster, built in fiberglass by Kaiser Motors and equipped with a six-cylinder Ford engine. In 1952 Henry J.

Well, here we are dealing with a typical case of “Hey, how about selling that wreck sitting for thirty years in the garage?” In this specific case, the wreck is a De Tomaso Pantera, probably an “L” model. The patient’s condition does not seem very serious but surely there are many areas on which to… Read More Make offer: 1971 De Tomaso Pantera L
This car was designed by John Crosthwaite and Franco Scaglione, has beautiful lines and yet is still quite unknown to most vintage car enthusiasts. Far from us to want to stimulate a market already quite speculative, but this car is still very undervalued for us, so, at the right price, chances like these should be… Read More American italian: 1968 Intermeccanica Italia Spider
The seller of this fiberglass car says tat the builder took inspiration by the 1954 Buick Wildcat II show car and indeed there are some elements in common between the two cars: this though is made of fiberglass and everyone might have built one in his garage, in Noel Bangert’s mind. The seller says… Read More Ocean inspiration: 1956 Bangert Manta Ray
Yep, that’s a replica. But, as all of you know, not all replicas are the same and that’s true also for this Cobra 427 built by Kirkham, a small factory in Provo, UT. There, among the beautiful landascapes of Utah, the Kirkham brothers build the best replica of the Shelby Cobra, both in 289 and… Read More Polish aluminium: 1965 Cobra 427 S/C by Kirkham
Even though we perfectly know that many people don’t care about classic cars like this one, our goal has always been to bring to the light some obscure build which you rarely see around.
