This Mistral belongs to one of the first batch of these cars which were equipped with the same engine of their predecessor, the 3500 GT series, although increased of 200 c.c. It was sold new in Italy, in a region which has snow during the winter: snow means salt on the tarmac and indeed this car… Read More Trans-continental: 1964 Maserati Mistral Coupé
Do you remember the time when, with the same amount of the starting bid for this car, you could buy a very nice and running Giulietta Spider 750? Well, times have definitely changed. This Giulietta, on the other side, is a very early car as the chassis number, confirmed by the Alfa Romeo Registry, is… Read More Early chassis: 1956 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider
This car is one of the counteless Michelotti’s creations and it’s a typical daughter of the ’60s italian design: it is red, it has two seats and it’s a spider. As many of the special cars built in that period, also this spider is built on a Fiat platform: in this particular case the donor… Read More Undercover sedan: 1964 OSI 1200S Spider
This is not a cheap project, both for the entry price and its ending cost, but that could be a dream for who has enough funds to build his dream car. It’s about a Ferrari 330 GT engine, gearbox and chassis which actually has a title so any problem for a future registration is prevented.… Read More Naked project: 1965 Ferrari 330 GT 2+2
Few of these cars are still around. Ok let’s say it better: several TCR are around but few, very few (we guess less than 30) are the real thing. This 1000 TCR (Abarth 210/1748) should be one of these as the first owner was Abarth itself. Indeed the seller says that this car still has the original plates… Read More Radiale: 1969 Abarth 1000 TCR
The seller says to have more than 12,000 photos done on this Ghibli under restoration: they’re a lot but still they don’t explain everything. The first thing is the chassis number: on eBay the car is listed with the chassis number 115/132 but stangely this car looks the same under restoration here which indeed has… Read More 12,000 photos: 1967 Maserati Ghibli 4.7 Coupé
So far we have often seen these cabriolets by Vignale built after the 1960, but actually cars built before that year are quite rare. Then, this is not a first series Cabriolet: the first series had only two seats (this is a 2+2 car), a discontinued side profile (with the rear fins more outlined than… Read More Early car: 1959 Lancia Appia Convertibile by Vignale
The last series of the Mistral is the only to have the biggest inline-six engine ever produced by Maserati: it’s a 4.0 litre unit which, in this case, is not into the car. The seller doesn’t say much about this car: basically he says that although the body is in nice shape (and actually it seems… Read More Outboard engine: 1966 Maserati Mistral 4.0 Coupé
This is not the first hearse based on a Lancia seen so far, but for sure this is the oldest one, as it is based on a Lancia Aurelia B10. Indeed the B10 has been produced from 1950; in 1951 Lancia made two version of the sedan car: one equipped with a 1,774 cc engine… Read More Last classy ride: 1951 Lancia Aurelia B10 hearse
Here is another “Pantera” (as these cars were called when used by Italian police) for sale: it needs toi be restored, it’s black outside and brown inside. It has the chassis number #AR824989 and it’s said to have an excellent body without a dramatic amount of rust: rust is there for sure but actually this… Read More Two for one: 1965 Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint
