Update, September 19: after only two days the ad has been removed, probably because the car has been sold. The early bird catches the worm. There’s few to review about this car but what we can say it’s an extremely nice specimen which has been restored for sure not so long ago (probably no earlier… Read More Try to do better: 1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint Speciale
Mr. Rapley again amazes us with another barn find: this time is an early Giulietta Sprint (#356) which features some distinctive details like the aluminium hood (later used on the Veloce’s) and the pull-knob starter switch. We only must correct the seller when he says that the only Giulietta Mille Miglia eligible are the ones… Read More 356 but not german: 1955 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint
This Giulietta Sprint 750 is said to have been purchased by the actual seller 7 years ago and, since then, basically no work has been performed on it with the exception of some money and time spent to locate many missing parts. The seller says that the car is dry, with no rust or big… Read More Stay dry: 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint
This barn find (as the seller says) Pantera GT is clearly a U.S. spec. car, so it has the common and ugly D.O.T. approved bumpers and much dust everywhere. Actually the seller is Gas Monkey Garage, protagonist of the reality series “Fast ‘n’ Loud” on Discovery Channel. We agree with the seller about the interior:… Read More Fast ‘n’ Loud: 1974 De Tomaso Pantera GT
According to the seller, this car is based on the chassis (#22.9) and mechanicals of a 1946 Cisitalia-Abarth (204?) which crashed in Argentina and then rebuilt by Ugo Galicio coachworks in mid fifities until 1957 upon the commission of Renato Ciofi. As most Cisitalia had the right hand drive, the seller specify that the lhd… Read More The strange one: 1946 Cisitalia…something
This yellow Appia GTE (chassis 81203-5076) is said to have been fully restored in 2004, including mechanical parts which have been overhauled by the actual seller. It was imported in UK from Holland (both countries have a special feeling with classic Lancia). This doesn’t seem a concours-level restored car but it actually looks good: we don’t… Read More Not so expensive: 1961 Lancia Appia GTE by Zagato
It’s not usual to see a Fiat 1100 in USA, but it’s much more difficult to see a station wagon model: actually these cars are scarce even in Italy so just a real 1100 nut could have imported this car to U.S. Must also say that this car is in very good conditions: the two… Read More Rare in the U.S.A: 1960 Fiat 1100H Familiare
Update August 28: we posted this car on monday and today the ad has been removed, so the car has very probably been sold: it was a great deal indeed. This Flaminia Touring is said to be entirely restored many years ago but it’s actually sitting with the exception of the engine which has been… Read More Everything double: 1961 Lancia Flaminia 2.5 Coupé by Touring
The seller says that this Abarth 750 Spider has been raced until 1971 and for this reason it has a modified front boot lid in order to allow quick refuelings during the race. It is an U.S. spec. car as it’s easy to deduce watching the clocks and it’s said to have 17,000 original miles… Read More Tanned aluminium: 1958 Abarth 750 Spider by Allemano
This 1974 Giulia super has been rebuilt in order to make it look like the legendary (and ultra rare) Ti super and, must say, the outcome is very nice. Obviously, the white paint is mandatory as the Ti Super were made only in such color; also the rims installed are a correct replica of the… Read More Fast and four-ious: 1974 Alfa Romeo Giulia Ti Super tribute car
