That’s true that the german steel was not as thin and low-quality made like that used on the same period Alfa which rusted… Read More Arabian german: 1959 Mercedes 190 SL
This car has no feelings but, at the same time, has a special heart: it’s not the common aircooled, pushrod engine of the common 356’s of that period but a very rare four cam engine. That’s because this is a 356 Carrera 2 GS, not your common 356. Very few were made and, back then,… Read More A special heart: 1963 Porsche 356 B T6 Carrera 2
This Porsche 356 C Cabrio is actually a survivor: abandoned in a garage (or barn) many years ago, now it sees the light again.

All we know (almost all) that the magic “S” after “Porsche 911” means performance and value, but not all know that if that “S” belongs to a pre-1968 car, the value rises a lot. It raises steeply if that “S” belongs to a matching numbers car like this one is said to be: it actually… Read More Green and Gold: 1967 Porsche 911S 2.0
As we just wrote many times, one of the lesson learned about the classic cars world is that you can’t ever imagine how many model have been built in the past 100 years. This, for instance, is the first specimen of “Kombi” we’ve ever seen and, to be honest, we didn’t even know about its… Read More German perfume: 1949 Mercedes-Benz 170 S “Kombi”
“Interiors only” is not referred to the photo provided (which actually show only interiors and the front lid) but also to what remains of the car which is said to have been involved in a serious crash.

The best gift made to a Ford Taunus was for sure the body of this model, built by O.S.I. in Turin, Italy, but mainly sold in Germany where this car actually is for sale. We’ve published many of these, probably more than any other blog aroud, just because we are fascinated by the lines of… Read More Million dollar face/2: 1967 OSI 20M TS Coupé
This 356 T6 Coupé is, in our opinion, much better than it could look at a first glance: it seems a solid car with a very nice color combo with one main issue. The issue is that the engine is missing: it could seem a big bug but the truth is that a 356 with… Read More Potential outlaw: 1963 Porsche 356 B T6
