Actually this Amphicar has never literally sunk, but she would not hesitate to do so if it were put into the water as it is now. Obviously most of the cars that are 50 years old or more suffer from rust problems, but we are talking about “regular” cars, certainly not vehicles halfway between a… Read More Sunken boat: 1967 Amphicar Model 770
1965 is a year that counts a lot for Porsche 911 enthusiasts, second in importance only to the previous year which saw the coexistence of the 356 model and the 911, the latter starting in August. In fact, during 165 the so-called “zero series” was still produced, as it was initially called 901 but unfortunately… Read More Sandwiched: 1965 Porsche 911
Porsche convertibles up to m.y. 1953 are rare, very rare. And if we add rarity to the well-known marketability of vintage Porsches, very important values begin to jump out. What we see here is even a car from 1952 (chassis # 15051), and here we begin to enter the elite of classic Porsches, especially because,… Read More Former Adriablau: 1952 Porsche 356 Cabriolet
The seller says this 190 SL is a survivor with 54,000 original miles and is therefore a virtually unique specimen. Indeed he says he bought this car in 1991 from the original owner and all the parts of the car, engine, transmission, interior, soft top are the ones with which this 190 Sl came out… Read More German survivor: 1958 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL
If the base BMW 2002 had been asked: “What do you want to be when you grow up?” it would surely have answered “a Turbo”, or at least this is what every owner of E9 is told. The 2002 Turbo is indeed an iconic car more because of its looks than its performance (although 170… Read More Breaking bad: 1973 BMW 2002
The fabulous (and terrible at the same time) 70s were full of many automotive design ideas, and many of these ideas also came from small car manufacturers who produced aesthetic kits for different car models. This 914 is equipped with one of these kits which, we must say, apart from the huge rear wing, is… Read More Big wing: 1975 VW-Porsche 914
There is little doubt: German cars fared strong in the USA in the 1960s while being far less powerful than an American car sold for the same price. Perhaps due to the exotic charm, perhaps due to the period counterculture that elected Volkswagen (literally “people’s car”) as its representative on four wheels, the fact is… Read More Red find: 1965 Volkswagen Typ 1 Convertible
We do not know if you have the perception of what happened to the values of the BMW E9 series, if not, we will make a short summary. Briefly, the E9 series, which is the flagship series of BMW production between the end of the 60s and the mid-70s, was practically ignored by the world… Read More Polaris and blue: 1971 BMW 3.0 CSi
Let’s face it: this is the 914 that everyone would have wanted (50 years ago), but of course there is a reason. The reason was strategic: although this model is commonly identified as a Porsche, it is actually a Volkswagen with Porsche DNA and if it had mounted a more powerful engine than the 100… Read More Six but bigger: 1971 Volkswagen-Porsche 914/6
How much are you willing to pay for a chassis number if it belongs to one of the 300 Porsche 356 Cabriolets produced in ’53? We assume that everyone has a different answer. We are talking about the chassis because on this Porsche, in addition to it, the only original parts remain those relating to… Read More Almost bent: 1953 Porsche 356 Cabriolet
