A classic car that runs in a single family is generally a good thing to be heard by collectors and enthusiasts, let alone if the car in question is an iconic 300 SL. It is a substantially original car and matching numbers (with the exception of the transmission which belongs to a later model from… Read More Patina monster/6: 1956 Mercedes-Benz 300SL
Let’s face it: it is an unsafe car, it does not brake very well, it has an engine that produces more or less the same power as a Fiat Panda, the winter heating is poor as well as the waterproof seal of the hood and, finally, it is very expensive. But there is also a… Read More Freedom of choice: 1957 Porsche 356A Speedster
Bigger or faster are not positive characteristics in themselves, but must always be contextualized. In this particular context, the two aforementioned factors don’t matter as much. In fact, when it comes to classic cars, size or speed matters little or nothing: if that were the case, a Ferrari 250 GTO – which today would be… Read More To be refreshed: 1961 DKW 1000 SP Coupé
In 1958, 451,526 units of Typ 1 were produced, more generally known as the “Beetle”, compared to this important number, only 9,624 units in the cabriolet version were produced. We are therefore talking about 2% of production built with a soft top and, of course, you can imagine how many of these almost 10k units… Read More Santa Barbara car: 1958 Volkswagen Typ 1 Cabriolet
We know that a Porsche 911 to be restored has almost become a cliché for about ten years, but we have to make exceptions. The first exception on this 911 concerns the fact that it is a so-called “0 series”, which is the first batch of this model sold starting from September 1964 until the… Read More Green spirit: 1965 Porsche 911
It’s white, it’s dry, has a V8 engine and it’s nearly complete – a great calling card for any classic car to be restored. And even more so if the car in question is a BMW 501, quite rare from the point of view of the units produced and above all for how many are… Read More White whale: 1960 BMW 501
It has a beautiful color and looks very, very well preserved: this is the brief identikit of this rare Audi. The fact that the car looks very well preserved is probably also due to the fact that the car – so the seller says – has passed from father to son and has therefore remained… Read More One family car: 1972 Audi 100S Coupé
Let’s make it short: we’ve never seen a pick-up like this, we didn’t know it existed, we didn’t even know that BMW had produced this type of vehicle after the war. You never stop learning, right? In fact, the seller says that after World War II BMW produced “industrial” vehicles under the name EMW, but… Read More Working class: 1951 BMW 340 Pritschenwagen
“E” is for “Einspritzung” which, in german language, means fuel injection. Today we know what it is but almost 50 years ago, only cars at the highest level could boast this technical solution. In fact, if we look at the cars that were equipped with this feature at the time, we find cars such as… Read More Class and fury: 1973 Porsche 911E 2.4
Anyone who has fully restored a classic car knows very well that an easy restoration does not exist, unless it is a car that already looks good and only needs general tuning and detailing. This is not, in fact, the case, indeed it takes many hours of work to bring this 356 back to the… Read More Drive the dolphin/2: 1960 Porsche 356b T5 Roadster
