Here we go again: this is the first time ever that we see this car but, more than anything else, it is the first time we know of its existence. Unfortunately, although we are passionate about classic cars, we can’t know everything. This car is one of the many daughters of Argentina’s post war automotive industry,… Read More From darkness/2: 1974 Fiat 600 Varela Berlineta
South America is a place where, especially during the late 60’s, a lot of cars from Europe retired and so, differently from the common sense, it has always been a place full of interesting cars. Most of those cars coming from Europe are by now returned home, but there are still many interesting cars produced… Read More World tour: 1967 Puma GT DKW
This car and I are peers but I believe that the car looks actually better than me even though it’s not a show level car. Of course a weekend car or a daily driver doesn’t neccessarily be a show car, on the contrary, it’s better to have a car you don’t have to worry for… Read More Semi fresh: 1973 Datsun 240Z
The only car producer of Israel was Autocars Co. Ltd. founded in Haifa and, among other models, they’ve built the Sabra Sport both in Coupé and Roadster version. This particular car, of course a Roadster, is said to heve been brought in the U.S.A. in 1973 and, as long as it has a fiberglass body,… Read More Haifa car: 1963 Autocars Sabra Sport Roadster
208 were the Sabra Sports built with the soft top, so that’s a rare car, other than being the only – more or less – known car built in Israel. These cars, built for three years from 1962 to 1964, were commmisioned by the israeli company Autocars, to UK’s Reliant Motor Company of Tamworth as they… Read More Smells like Reliant: 1965 Sabra Sports Roadster
Have you ever seen a Mazda Cosmo to restore? We didn’t as it’s even hard to find one in good conditions for sale, and that’s because for the 2nd series – which this car belongs to – only 1,176 cars were made. The second series of these very special japanese cars, were equipped with a… Read More Birotor: 1970 Mazda Cosmo Sport
Once we said that our goal is to spot the most interesting classic cars all around the world, and sometimes we succeed even spotting cars in the south of the world. This car indeed was built in Brazil thanks to an agreement among Renault and Willys-Overland, using the engine of the Renault Dauphine in three… Read More Sky blue: 1965 Willys Interlagos A108 Cabriolet
We guess that most of you have never seen this car, and indeed we neither did, at least until a couple of years ago when we spotted one for sale in Argentina. In 1962, the management of the argentinian Kaise Motors wanted an automobile that would be better suited to their domestic market, one that… Read More Italian connection: 1967 Ika Torino 380 Coupé by Pininfarina
“Cheap and Ugly” is not our judgment on this car – which we actually find lovely – but that’s how this car was advertised by its U.S. importer Malcom Bricklin (yep, the one of the Bricklin cars fame). 1,000 lb curb weight, monocoque construction, swing axle rear suspension, fiberglass roof panel, two-stroke engine and rear-hinged… Read More Cheap and Ugly: 1967 Subaru 360
The seller of this great example of Northern Europe design says that this car has a great body and, at the same time, it’s a good runner. To proof what he says , the seller has also made a video posted here on Youtube: the car actually runs and, although it’s way far to be… Read More Great Body, Good Runner: 1973 Volvo P1800 ES
