We are not new to this particular variation of the legendary Fiat 1100/103, which for years has been the blank canvas on which many coachbuilders – not only Italian – have realized their vision. One of these, indeed one of the main ones, was Allemano, who designed both this coupé version and a Cabriolet version… Read More A different vision: 1953 Fiat 1100/103 Coupé by Allemano
It is not unusual to find a Lancia Aurelia, built in the immediate post-war period, which has a special body, and this car is an example. Obviously, “it is not unusual” does not mean that you can find one at every street corner, in particular if the car was commissioned by the Italian driver Giovanni… Read More Pilot’s car: 1950 Lancia Aurelia B50 by Vignale
Today there is a task to be carried out: to understand which car it is, and who made it. It seems that this barchetta, which at first sight appears to be a Giaur 750, has nothing in common with the other Giaur except for the aluminum bodywork. In particular, what perplexes the seller is the… Read More Mystery car: 1952 Patriarca 750 Sport?
In recent years it has happened to find some Ferrari with a “250” unit capacity in poor condition, but in general it was the GTE model, never a Pininfarina. Obviously the first question that arises in the mind of every enthusiast is: “Where did he ever find it?” Well, we don’t know the answer but… Read More Rough one: 1960 Ferrari 250 GT Coupé by Pininfarina
“Home” stands for Italy, of course, since it is very strange to see a rare Fiat 1100 ES in the United States, as the number of cars produced is really small. We do not believe that this car was sold new in the United States, it probably arrived years later as a used car, in… Read More Far from home: 1950 Fiat 1100 ES Coupé By Pininfarina
This Intermeccanica Omega is today in poor conditions, but once it was – literally – in the spotlight. In fact it seems that this is the Omega protagonist of the Intermechanical area at the New York Motor Show of 1969, and acquired by its first – and only – owner: he had to love it… Read More In the spotlight: 1969 Intermeccanica Omega
If there’s one thing that drives us crazy, it’s the small sports berlinettas built in small series during the 40s and 50s. As we all know 80% of these cars were produced on a Fiat basis, but some were not, as in the case of this Panhard X86, imported (as a chassis) in Italy by… Read More Scrapyard survivor: 1953 Panhard X86 Berlinetta by Allemano
This Alfa is clearly a 2600 Sprint which, however, has lost a lot of sprint over the years. Today it is in such a condition that anyone who buys it must do so keeping in mind that there is nothing else to do except a complete, long and expensive restoration. The seller says the car… Read More Optional title: 1964 Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint
Finally a Alfa Romeo Spider from the 1960s that is not painted red: that’s quite a rare thing, as most of you know well. Don’t get us wrong: we like red on a Spider, especially if it’s Alfa, but like all things in this world “a little goes a long way”, and that goes for… Read More Be green/3: 1963 Alfa Romeo 2600 Spider by Touring
There are many ways to have fun and one of them is to take a wreck and make it come back like new. Of course, it is not an “inexpensive” way to have fun but it is also true that at the end of the day you will have something left in your hands, while… Read More Work with friends: Many cars for sale
