This car (chassis # DD7-6) is one of the fantastic Devin D produced in the 50s using Porsche mechanics and, apart from the paintwork, it doesn’t look bad at all. The truth is that little of the pint has remained (it seems that the original color was Porsche silver 6206) as someone has sanded the… Read More Thin paint: 1959 Devin “D” Porsche
Classic Virus readers will have understood for some time that we like this model, and we like it even more if it is one of those few equipped by the factory with a six-cylinder engine. If then, in addition to being a six-cylinder, the car is configured as “GT”, that is, with the fenders widened,… Read More Adriatic six: 1970 Volkswagen-Porsche 914-6 “GT”
Although it may seem strange, this is not an aesthetically modified 924 with an aftermarket kit, but a rare vehicle. In fact, only 406 specimens of this model have been built, probably most of which still exist, however we are talking about very small numbers in relation to the current production of sports cars. This… Read More 1 of 406: 1981 Porsche 924 Carrera GT
On the classic car forums I have attended in the past, I remember that the phrase “they are still out there” often came up. This car is proof that that sentence was correct. A Mercedes-Benz 300 SL, hidden in a barn and in these conditions, in 2020 by now, is an extremely rare event, and… Read More Blue on blue: 1961 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster
Do you think the 914 is more a Volkswagen than a Porsche? Actually it is exactly the opposite, both in the four and six cylinder versions. In the four-cylinder one because, until 1964, the cars produced by the Stuttgart factory (and before that in the Gmund factory) were all four-cylinder boxers, in the six-cylinder one… Read More Six are better: 1970 Volkswagen – Porsche 914-6
We haven’t published a 911 for a long time, right? Well we know that many of you are not happy with this but we want to please everyone. As already mentioned in the title, this is not one of the very few real RSRs built in the magnificent 1970s but a clone of it (based… Read More Green growl: 1973 Porsche 911 RSR clone
There are not a few 356 Speedsters around, in any condition, but very few still have the original hardtop which, by the way, has a beautiful design. In fact, I don’t like spiders with the hardtop because to me it “kills” the character of a spider (and very often makes it uglier) however, as with… Read More Hard-Top: 1957 Porsche 356 Speedster
The classic vans have always been the Cinderella of the world of vintage vehicles, yet some of them are fascinating, and in recent years many collectors have noticed. Obviously the lion’s share has always been made by the Volkswagen T1 van, in particular in its “Samba” version, but around there are equally fascinating and much… Read More The other one: 1964 Mercedes-Benz O 319 Minibus
The Roadster, one of the rarest versions of the entire 356 series, has always been a somewhat mysterious object and perhaps for this reason it was less successful than the cabriolet despite being, in our opinion, more beautiful. car is in fact a mixture of elements belonging to the “A” Speedster series plus those belonging… Read More White bathub: 1960 Porsche 356B T5 Roadster
Some of you certainly know Luigi Colani, the designer who, despite his very Italian surname, was born in Germany from a Swiss father and a Polish mother. And surely you know it for its most famous automotive creation, the “Alfa Romeo 1000 Abarth GT Bertone Coupé” (one of the longest names in the history of… Read More The future has passed/2: 1989 Colani Utah 6
