This is a 4.7, not a 4.9: the seller says this as the two models had different production numbers and the 4.9 is the scarcer of the Indy family built by Vignale. That, of course, doesn’t mean that you will find this Maserati behind the corner: it stills is a maserati produced in few specimens:… Read More The trident underdog: 1972 Maserati Indy 4.7
This is the second green Urraco published here; the other one was a P200 while this one is a P250, not as rare as its bigger sister, the P300, but not common at all. In our opinion, this green is the color which fits perfectly this daughter of the italian design of the seventies, and… Read More Green bull/2: 1974 Lamborghini Urraco P250 S
Of course this recreation is pretty coherent with the original concept of the Bizzarrini Gt Strada: a Chevrolet engine mated with italian body and chassis. Ok this car hasn’t the same fine tubular chassis of the original car: the aluminium body here wraps around a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette chassis which, even for the time, was… Read More Bizzarre ‘Vette: 1967 Bizzarrini GT 5300 Strada recreation
This is new. As it’s just happened, this is the first time we see this car, and probably a long time will pass before we’ll see another one for sale. It’s called Neckar/Fiat 500 Limousette, built by Weinsberg coachworks between 1959 and 1963. Weinsberg also built the Coupé version on the same Fiat 500 N… Read More The sedan version: 1959 Neckar/Fiat 500 Limousette by Weinsberg
This is one of the Flaminia Coupé by Pininfarina which have dodged the same destiny of many others which have been scrapped during the last 30 years. Of course that happened as this model has not the same sleek, streamlined lines of its cousin made by Touring, but still it’s a typical example of how well… Read More Dirt and gray: 1960 Lancia Flaminia Coupé by Pininfarina
This Abarth 750 by Allemano (#474756, Allemano #616) is one of the small family of spiders built by Abarth on the Fiat 600 platform; many were used to race and indeed this car is one of those. It’s in fact a long time racer: for sure this car has joined most of the competition of the… Read More Lime Rock special: 1958 Abarth 750 Spider by Allemano
Many of these panel cars were made by Lancia as they were often used by small companies in order to make quick deliveries around the city. Unfortunately most of them were scrapped as, once they became old cars, they could not be recycled in the used car market: indeed the few cars remained are basically… Read More A different delivery: 1955 Lancia Appia “Furgoncino”
Sometimes on of these Moretti Tour De Monde pops up somewhere, in this case it’s a cabriolet which has the exact color of the underlying ground. 150 Coupè bodied cars were made but we don’t know the number of the cabriolets built by Moretti between the 1959 and the 1961. It has a 750 cc engine with… Read More Terrain camo: 1959 Moretti Tour De Monde Cabriolet
What we can’t understand is why many people are so stingy with words when it’s time to describe the car they are selling.Whatever, this car speaks enough for itself. It’s a Simca 1200S by Bertone, a car which is well know by many Classic Virus readers as we have posted many of these cars for… Read More No words: 1970 Simca 1200 S Coupé by Bertone
The Espada is one of the oddest car made by the Lamborghini but we must admit that, to our eyes, the more the time passes, the better it looks. And that’s because this is a car designed in order to evolve the features of the Marzal prototype, which was too extreme to be converted into… Read More Low in four: 1972 Lamborghini Espada
