Also in this case – unfortunately – we are faced with a project that ended only in the mind of those who thought it up. In reality we only see a disassembled car. That the car is disassembled is not a problem in itself, the problem arises when a project is abandoned for years and… Read More Tenant of the barn: 1957 BMW Isetta 300
All classic car enthusiasts would like to own a car with as clean a past as possible and, last but not least, owned by as few owners as possible. Clearly with the passing of the years all this becomes more and more difficult and yet we still live in an era in which, in rare… Read More Riverside ivory: 1964 Porsche 356 SC Coupé
There are several 356s on sale right now, yet this one struck us for two very specific reasons. The first reason is the combination of colors: you may like it or not but you will rarely see another Porsche 356 (of any series) painted in Togo Brown with a green interior; this combo color is… Read More Chocolate mint: 1964 Porsche 356 SC Coupé
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
