We did not know of the existence of this model: in fact we knew the OT 2000 called by the nickname “Monster”, this is the smaller sister. In fact, it seems that very few specimens of this model (technically called 102 / B) were built: this model had to be purchased directly from the racing… Read More Top tier: 1965 Abarth OT 1600
To those unfamiliar with cars it seems that making a spider version is easy: just saw off the roof and add a soft top but we know that this is not the case at all. The lack of the roof compromises the torsional rigidity of the chassis so, by eliminating the roof, it is necessary… Read More The open one: 1983 Ferrari 512 BBi
We have seen around some Fiat 500C with this configuration, but never a “B” series. This vehicle is not to be defined simply as rare, but very rare: we do not know whether it left the factory like this or, if the modification was made later than its birth, who made it; surely this is… Read More Ragtop truck: 1948 Fiat 500B Autocarro
Sold new and aged in the same place, this could be the short story of this Giulietta Sprint. It is in fact a specimen which, although it is not rare in itself (in relative terms, of course) has the rarity of having been sold new in Rome in 1965, and has remained in the Italian… Read More Roman citizen: 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint
In this case “bug” is not the nickname given to the Volkswagen Typ1, but to this insect-shaped car, very precious and sought after. In fact, it is a Record Monza characterized in particular by two things: the roof without the double bubble and above all, under the rear hood, a 750 Bialbero engine very angry… Read More Yellow bug: 1959 Abarth 750 Record Monza by Zagato
Very few cars like this have survived time and road accidents. Indeed, as far as we are concerned this is the first one we see for sale. In fact it is easy to confuse this Moretti 600 with the Algier-Le Cap, but in reality there are differences even if at first glance they look like… Read More Split screen: 1951 Moretti 600 Berlinetta
Probably, among the classic cars, there is no sedan that is better read to sports modifications, and this example is the proof of this. In fact, it was born as a 1300 TI and registered in Italy (it still bears the first original black plate) but since then it has come a long way: all… Read More Bad attitude/2: 1968 Alfa Romeo Giulia 1300 TI
This car is as small as the charisma it emanates is big: you don’t need to be a supercar to turn heads. The merit is a very accurate design and studied in every detail: customers who, more than 50 years ago, bought cars like these wanted to feel driving a high-level car while spending acceptable… Read More Big charisma: 1969 Fiat 850 Sport Racer Berlinetta by Bertone
We could not fail to publish this wonderful Alfa Romeo pickup truck based on the “Romeo 2 °” model as it is the first time we see one. In fact, we thought that these pickups were only a prerogative of the A12 model while the Romeo 2 ° was built only in the “closed” version:… Read More Patina monster/7: 1960 Alfa Romeo “Romeo 2°” Cassonato
Here we are in the presence of a very rare – probably unique – coachbuilt Fiat built by Vignale at the beginning of the famous body shop: even if Vignale seems to have always built cars, it actually lasted (under the guidance of Alfredo) only twenty years. Twenty years only but very intense, which have… Read More Green orchid: 1950 Fiat 1400 Orchidea by Vignale
