Among the various options on the modification of a vintage car, there are some that work on some characteristic details of a specific model: not to enhance them, but to eliminate them.

What does the collecting value of a car depend on? Rarity? Beauty? Sports pedigree? Pop culture? Surely it is a value derived from the crossing of all the previous ones, but in some cases it is still difficult to calculate it. One of “those cases” is certainly related to this Fiat 500N (chassis # 110… Read More Oldest isn’t cheapest: 1957 Fiat 500 N
The Monviso body shop was not new to the standard Fiat modification, to create special cars for those wealthy customers who wanted to stand out from the crowd. Clearly Monviso was one of the dozens of Italian bodyshops that dedicated themselves to this kind of work, but it was one of the largest and in… Read More Almost blue: 1948 Fiat 1500 Stella Alpina by Monviso
We have seen quite a bit of these special coupés based on the Ford Taunus chassis and engine, but none of them were in this condition.

Okay, we know, this is certainly not the most beautiful of the GTs produced in Italy in the last century, indeed, it is definitely one of the worst creations made by the pencil of an Italian designer. However, we are still talking about a rare (177 made) 1973 Lamborghini: independent suspension, four disc brakes, five-speed… Read More Ugly rarity: 1973 Lamborghini Jarama
Other times we happened to find interesting buggies for sale and, wrongly, we didn’t publish them. It is in fact the “funny car” by definition: it is uncomfortable, it does not protect against the elements, it has the same equipment as a motorcycle: however, it has fascinated generations of children, including myself, who as a… Read More Aluminium sand: 1972 ATL Explorer 2
In that period between the twenties and the sixties there was an area, bounded on the west by Turin and on the east by Milan, within which the magic of cars happened. This Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 “very” special is the testimony of that magic and, if you are still wary, look in Google for… Read More Design daughter: 1952 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Sport by Pininfarina
In the period from the early 70s to the early 80s, when the twenty-first century began to be seen at the horizon, the world of commercial and industrial design was driven to seek new forms and interpretations of everyday and non-everyday objects. Obviously the automotive world was not impervious to these trends, and as had… Read More The future has passed: 1975 Fiat 850 T by Bertone
Once again we did not know the Baldi coachworks that transformed a normal Fiat 500L into a “Spiaggina” version. Let’s be honest: the car is very particular but, according to the “classic” aesthetic standards, the result certainly does not seem a masterpiece of style: but certainly the aspect is what can be called “unmistakable” as… Read More Beach Tank: 1974 Fiat 500L “Tilly” by Baldi
