A classic car that disappears from sight for many years is not great news, but it becomes so when the car is a Ferrari, especially a convertible like this one. It is in fact a 250 GT Cabriolet by Pininfarina, a second series, sold new to the first Italian owner residing near Milan, and purchased… Read More Lost and found: 1962 Ferrari 250 GT Cabriolet by Pininfarina
Enthusiasts like us know very well what it feels like to see a very rare car locked up in a dark and messy garage: in our opinion, you never get used to it. And the strange thing is that to feel that feeling you don’t even need to be on the spot in person, a… Read More The baby blue one: 1949 Fiat 1100 “Derby” by Bertone
Although it looks like one of the many Giulietta Spider that you see around, this is a Veloce and it is also the swb version, so it is rarer than you imagine. The most “precious” of this series is that of 1957 as it seems, at least by consulting Fusi’s book, that in the first… Read More Short and grey: 1958 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce
It had been a long time since we stumbled upon an Aurelia B20 GT in these conditions, we sincerely believed that all those few around were now only restored specimens. But here we are always amazed: we have no idea where is the shed from which this B20 was pulled out, but it has certainly… Read More Silver relic: 1951 Lancia Aurelia B20 GT
Not many people know the ASA, but those few who know it also know that the founders had nothing to do with the automotive world before they built these cars. The founder was in fact (he is, as we believe he is still alive) the son of an industrialist in the electrochemical sector with his… Read More Silver gem: 1964 ASA 1000 GT
This car is called Murena GT, and it’s said to have been built in a very small series of 10 (maybe 11) cars by Intermeccanica which built the bodies, following the idea of Joseph Vos, president of Murena Motors. This car is powered by a mean Thunderbird 429 c.i. 8V engine, so you’ll need to… Read More 3rd out of eleven: 1969 Murena GT
The seller of this car basically says that the car is flawless and therefore for a potential buyer there is nothing left to do but count the money before coming to pick it up. It is certainly true that the 1300 Scorpio around are few and it is not at all easy to find one… Read More Count the money: 1970 Abarth 1300 Scorpione by Francis Lombardi
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
