They’re still out there. When you think you’ll never find anymore an SS to restore, a new one pops up from darkness. What we have here is a Giulia Sprint Speciale which is said to have been with the same owner since 1976, and for sure it hasn’t been pampered all its life. For sure… Read More Since ’76: 1963 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint Speciale
More or less just 300 GTL were built from 1963 to 1965; only three cars were equipped with the 2.5 litre engine, all the other specimens had the more powerful 2.8 litre engine equipped with three Weber carburetors. The car wasn’t indeed a best seller: two more seats were a great thing for who had… Read More High roof: 1964 Lancia Flaminia GTL 2800 3C Coupé by Touring
The years across the Word War II were those which saw the birth of the most luxurious cars even made, and for “luxurious” we mean the bespoke craftsmanship and the attention to details. One of the best example of this philosophy is this Alfa 2500 Cabriolet built by Farina coachworks in 1947: it is said… Read More Déco luxury: 1947 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Sport Cabriolet by Farina
This is the second time we see a 500 N Sport for sale, and that’s because this is a very rare 500, much rarer than any Abarth version. As long as we have published another one, let us reprise what we’ve already said: soon after the launch, in 1957, the Fiat 500 was not performing… Read More The special one: 1960 Fiat 500 N Sport
The 2600 Sprint has always been the Cinderella among the Alfa Romeo production of the sixties: ok it is a coupé but it never had the “sporty” attitude of the GT stepnose and so it has been underrated so far. So far indeed: up to a couple of years ago you could find nice specimens… Read More Start right: 1963 Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint
This is an american delivered Flaminia Coupé which has indeed all the instruments marked in m.p.h. and fahrenheit degrees. So far it lived in the dry U.S. southwest and that’s why it is in exceptional dry conditions. The seller says that it had one repaint only in 1985 when, at the same time, te engine was… Read More Dry white: 1961 Lancia Flaminia Coupé by Pininfarina
This gift from the Mesa is a Flavia Convertibile built by Vignale in 1962, a quite rare car to find in these conditions even in Italy, never mind in the U.S. However, here it is: the seller says that this car hasn’t been driven since 1997 (that’s scary to realize that 20 years are already… Read More Desert italian: 1962 Lancia Flavia Convertibile by Vignale
This is the second time we see an Abarth 2200 Spider for sale: the first time it was a car for sale in Italy, in 2006. This is then only the second time in ten years because this car is extremely rare, mostly because when it came out in 1959 this was an expensive car,… Read More Four eyed: 1959 Abarth 2200 Spider by Allemano
This OT 1000 is indeed dry as, the seller says, it came out from some storage in Nevada and it’s actually in exceptional dry conditions for a fifty years old car. The real point about these cars is, as usual, the authenticity: they are commonly easy to fake cars as they we based on the… Read More Super dry: 1965 Abarth OT 1000
Just when you believe you will not see another 600 by Viotti for sale for a long time to come, here is another one which pops up to a few hundred kilometers away. This time though, the car is in much worse conditions than the car, almost perfect, published some days ago: this one is… Read More Blinded and striped: 1957 Fiat 600 Coupé by Viotti
