Morgan, in the mind of all the classic cars nuts, means “tradition”, however not many know that Morgan too tried to evolve during the sixties. This attempt produced the the Plus 4 Plus, a two seater “berlinetta” which should have changed the course of the Morgan production: a fiberglass body with a design that was… Read More Evolution of the species: 1964 Morgan Plus 4 “Plus”
Among many experiments of merging the italian style with foreign machinery, there is one less known than others, the Hillman Imp dressed by Zagato. Both Zagato and the Rootes group (owner of Hillman) decided to go on with this experiment involving the Hillman Imp so the name of this car, then, changed in “Zimp” and… Read More The experiment/2: 1963 Hillman “Zimp” by Zagato

This car is the 110th XK120 which came out of the Coventry factory and, as an early car, is one of the very few dressed with an alloy body, making it a special one. The astonishing thing is that the seller has not only one, but two of these cars: the other one is still… Read More Downsizing: 1950 Jaguar XK120 O.T.S. “Alloy”
The Daimler SP 250 is the typical car that can be loved or hated: it’s difficult to find someone for whom the look of this car is indifferent. Clearly the seller loves it so much that he owns three of them. The first one is a 1961 BRG car which has been converted into a race… Read More Package deal: 1961, ’62 and ’63 Daimler SP 250
It’s not easy to find one of these Ford Escort MKI with the LHD option ad they’re even scarcer in the U.S.A., where this car actually is. That’s because these Fords were built by the british subsidiary so they were sold mostly in UK and, in smaller numbers, in the rest of Europe. Very few… Read More Rallye specs: 1971 Ford Escort MKI
I know this car. I know where it was sold new 56 years ago, how many owners it had up to 2011 and every detail about how, where and when it was restored. Simply because it was restored by me. So, once in life, I don’t mind what the seller says because I know the… Read More Old chap: 1961 Italia 2000 by Vignale

Actuall this car is titled as a 1961 car but, the low number of the body means that this car has been built in 1959 or 1960, however it is quite… Read More Green card: 1961 Italia 2000 by Vignale
This Jaguar XK 120 Open Two Seater is buried under a pile of unused home stuff and, at a glance, it doesn’t look well as is, however the seller says that it has no rust. Other than that, the seller says that the car is basically intact and that it still has its original California… Read More Pink slip: 1951 Jaguar XK 120 O.T.S.
