Not long ago we published a yellow A108, in conditions that looked beautiful. Today we have another one, but in much less seductive conditions than the first. It is in effect a car to be restored in its entirety, however it seems anything but a wreck: there is certainly a careful work to do to… Read More French bronze: 1966 Alpine A108
The Belna is nothing but the French declination of the Lancia Augusta: obviously it wasn’t just the name, there were also differences due to a very specific reason. At the time, in fact, France imposed a duty of 85% of the value for the imported cars, but this duty could be circumvented by planting a… Read More Two for one: 1937 Lancia Belna F-234
You may like it or not, but if we didn’t publish special cars like this one, we certainly wouldn’t be doing our job (in real life it’s certainly not a job). Or, maybe, that’s just because we used to be frequent visitors of autopuzzles.com A car that, actually, is the first time we see (even… Read More Renault inside: 1967 Sovam 1100 VS
Occasionally we find these small coupes with fiberglass bodywork for sale, produced in Brazil by Willys under a Renault license. As is evident, we consider this car very attractive, even if small and not very fast. In fact this model is basically an A110 with slightly smaller dimensions and an engine originally of 900 c.c.… Read More Yellow plastic: 1968 Alpine A-108
In reality we did not understand very well from these photos the exact color of the car: it would seem a cross between green and blue, often called “oil green”. However it is called, the substance is that it is a very beautiful shade, especially when it is flanked by interiors and a soft top like… Read More Vert parisien: 1960 Peugeot 403 Cabriolet by Pininfarina
Let’s face it, for all classic car enthusiasts, seeing a car parked in a garage and partially buried by unusual household items is now a cliché. However the fact that it is a cliché does not diminish its charm, as in the case of this Simca 8 Sport Coupé which was evidently parked many years… Read More Partially buried: 1951 Simca 8 Sport Coupé by Facel
We know the vans built by Citroen after the Second World War, but we had never seen one built before. A van – we have to say – far ahead for the time both for the shapes and for the general organization of the overall dimensions which allowed a considerable load capacity, certainly at the… Read More Form & Function: 1939 Citroén TUB
If there’s one thing that drives us crazy, it’s the small sports berlinettas built in small series during the 40s and 50s. As we all know 80% of these cars were produced on a Fiat basis, but some were not, as in the case of this Panhard X86, imported (as a chassis) in Italy by… Read More Scrapyard survivor: 1953 Panhard X86 Berlinetta by Allemano
There are many ways to have fun and one of them is to take a wreck and make it come back like new. Of course, it is not an “inexpensive” way to have fun but it is also true that at the end of the day you will have something left in your hands, while… Read More Work with friends: Many cars for sale
Finally another Simca 1200 S designed by Bertone. Finally because we had not seen it on the market for some time, and we are sorry of that because we have always liked this car. Elegant, small and snappy are the main connotations of this small coupe that at the time had a moderate commercial success,… Read More Be green/2: 1967 Simca 1200 S Coupé by Bertone
