We are not writing anything new when we argue that “Barn Find” conditions are what most fascinate collectors or simple enthusiasts, but when it comes to pre-war cars, it increases exponentially. We do not know what the history of this car is but it is the car itself that can tell us a part of… Read More Patina Monster/9: 1935 Lancia Augusta by Viotti
This car has been in the possession of the current owner for 23 years who says he has never driven it in the rain all this time – not surprising as we would have done the same. It was sold new in Switzerland and then imported to the USA where, in 2015, it received a… Read More Bayou burgundy: 1962 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint
This is the small sister of the 300SL: the 190SL was in fact built in the image and likeness of its older sister but with a price tag that can still be reached by few, but certainly more than those who could afford a 300SL, both coupe and spider. And we must also say that… Read More Little sister: 1961 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL
Browsing through the ads on the net, it is not that difficult to come across an Abarth 750 from the 1950s or 1960s, however this is not the case with this particular car. This is indeed the Berlinetta version built by Allemano, characterized by a more slender line and above all by the particular shape… Read More Rare bird: 1960 Abarth 750 Berlinetta by Allemano
While it is true that rarity in itself does not make a car more desirable, it is equally true that rarity makes a classic car certainly full of charm and, at times, of mystery. This is a very rare “van” version of an Autobianchi Bianchina that had a platform suitable for loading objects as the… Read More Open top: 1968 Autobianchi Bianchina Furgoncino
Exactly, this car is not the real deal but a replica which however seems to be built very well, at least as regards the exterior. But we imagine that the same care was also lavished on all the remaining areas of the car, which was built starting from the chassis of a 1950 Fiat 1100… Read More Swedish red: 1950 Cistalia-Abarth 204 Replica
Body made of aluminum, red, original black plate and in apparently perfect condition: need to ask for more? There are not many of these cars belonging to the first series (type 818.132) of the berlinetta built by Zagato, at the end of its golden years, on the winning basis of the Lancia Fulvia Coupé. This… Read More Red Peraluman: 1967 Lancia Fulvia Sport by Zagato
It’s nice to see cars like this coming up for sale: until a few years ago there were so many but now it seems that they have almost disappeared from the market. We are clearly talking about very special models produced in very few specimens for which we have survived a few, very few. As… Read More Rare bird: 1949 Fiat 1100B Cabriolet by Farina
There are fewer and fewer of these cars, and we don’t mean the model so much as the chance of finding one to restore according to your own standards. But this raises another question: When is a restoration really worth doing? In fact, compared to a few years ago (and we tell you this by… Read More Less and less: 1964 Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint
We can say that the first to have developed the concept of “sporty station wagon” were the Italians, at least judging by this model. Obviously “sporty” is a relative term: today this car would be surpassed in terms of performance by the cheapest car on the market, but then this was not a car for… Read More Ancient gold: 1954 Fiat 1100 TV Giardinetta by Viotti
