First time ever we see pink Lancia: we believed so far that only Cadillac’s could benefit from such treatment. The seller says the he have acquired this car from a long term ownership in Indiana and that the car still bears its original plates from 1959. It is also said that the engine turns freely… Read More Indiana Pink: 1959 Lancia Flaminia 2500 Coupé by Pininfarina
We doubt this car was built in 1957: indeed the plate is from that year but very probably this car was built not later than 5/7 years after the end of WWII. As many other similar cars, this one is a racer built on a “Topolino” platform in order to join all the road races… Read More Tiny with character: 1957 Fiat 500B “Barchetta”
The 4.9L version of the Indy breed is the most rare, so these cars fetch much more money then their 4.7 and 4.2 sisters but still, so far, a full restoration is very, maybe too, expensive. What’s not clear is that the seller says that tis car had “no accident”: so what about that huge… Read More No crash: 1969 Maserati Indy 4900
The 1100 TV could be, among many more valuable cars, one of the symbols of post war Mille Miglia. Indeed many of these cars joined successfully the famous race and they arrived often well in their class: it’s a reliable and solid machine which doesn’t require professional skills to be driven to the limit, and… Read More Family racer: 1954 Fiat 1100-103 TV
It’s strange to see one of the 273 cars made with the “118B” specifications painted with two longitudinal white stripes “Cobra-like”, but the classic car market often sets aside these kind of surprises. But, apart from the paint job, the rest of the car looks quite unabused: the seller says that this is a one… Read More White stripes: 1964 Fiat 1600S OSCA Coupé
We’ve seen many barn finds but it’s the first time we see a Volvo P1800 carried out of a long storage. Indeed the seller says that the last run of this car was in 1998, then it was stored in a dry garage, the same place from which it is just out. The seller says… Read More The Swede in the barn: 1970 Volvo P1800 E
Update, February 8: As reader Frans says, this is not a Veloce but a Normale with Veloce parts. Actually, as the seller himself says, the car is in The Netherlands since 1965 so it was delivered new elsewhere. Moreover, from the photos can be easily spotted the greel plate so we can’t really understand what’s… Read More Always dutch: 1962 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider
Hermosa Beach is the city where this car spent most of its life: indeed this 2000 Spider (chassis 102.04.00358) looks very dry and preserved. It is said that its last run was in 1977. Of course 55 years are not few for whatever car, so now this elegant spider needs a total restoration; however there… Read More Muy Hermosa: 1959 Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider by Touring
It’s the first time we see a Giulia Spider with wire wheels: ok we don’t like it much but it’s for sure a curious spotting. Indeed back then Borrani used to sell wire wheels kit for Alfa Romeo: of course there were some modifications to do on the wheels hubs but for sure such modifications are… Read More Never with wires: 1963 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider
We know these cars well, and just for this reason there are some considerations which are a must before thinking to buy a car like this one painted in Le Mans Blue. First of all, Montreal’s are fetching very good money these days, especially in the U.S. where they we not officially imported when new… Read More Hard to evaluate: 1971 Alfa Romeo Montreal
