This model, the Carrera 1500 GS, is the Holy Grail of the 356A Coupé family, but unfortunately it lacks something. And, unfortunately, that something that is missing is also the thing that differentiates it from the other “common” 356A: the “Fuhrmann” engine, equipped with double overhead camshafts and dual ignition which, in the 1956 version,… Read More Less cams: 1956 Porsche 356A Carrera 1500 GS Coupé
In fact it is just like the title says: it is very difficult that you can find another Convertible GT at this asking price. Above all then, since we speak not of a “normal” version, that is of a 2.5 liters (a carburetor or three carburettors), but of the version with engine 2800 c.c. or… Read More Cheaper is harder/5: 1963 Lancia Flaminia GT Convertibile by Touring
We always appreciate anyone who spends money and time to bring a classic car to a new life, but we must also point out things that do not convince us. All this, all the more so if the car in question is as rare as this Giulia Spider Veloce: do not be fooled by the… Read More The odd color: 1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider Veloce
No, let’s not tell lies: in this case “gold” is not in the raising phase, even though it is quite stable. As many of you have been able to verify, the last Californian auctions of August have given some very precise indications: the very beautiful specimens – even of models not particularly rare – sprout… Read More Rising gold/3: 1966 Fiat 1500 Coupè by Vignale
The Abarth OT 1000s based on the Fiat 850 sedan are perhaps the rarest (if we exclude the special models of the 50s), and finding one for sale is not a trivial event. Many of the ones in view are in fact the OT 850, similar but not identical to the 1000 that have a… Read More Red shift/2: 1964 Abarth OT 1000 Berlina
This is certainly one of the best Lancia barn find that we have seen in recent years, from many points of view. It still has the New York license plate which, although we do not know if it is the first license plate, still looks very old and could be the original one of the… Read More Blue find: 1959 Lancia Appia Convertibile by Vignale
We knew that the Fiat 600 Multipla was a car devoted to practicality, but we didn’t imagine it could be used for mail delivery. In the USA, moreover. Obviously it was certainly not the USPS that used this car for delivering mail in the town of Ojai, in California, but from an independent distributor that… Read More Ojai Post: 1957 Fiat 600 Multipla
It is not perfect but it is still beautiful and rare as little more than 1,000 were made between 1964 and 1965. Obviously we are talking about the Veloce version of the Giulia Spider, this model is the swan song of the Spider 750/101 series, characterized by the same engine as the Giulia Sprint Speciale… Read More Older restoration: 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider Veloce
There are causes for which it is certainly worth fighting regardless of everything and everyone, while others require a careful cost-benefit analysis. Now, we don’t know if this Alfa Romeo 2600 Spider belongs to the first or second category mentioned because this is an objective choice only partially, then there is an irrational part which… Read More Considerable repair: 1963 Alfa Romeo 2600 Spider by Touring
Whenever we find a 356 Speedster for sale in these conditions, we will publish it, this is something we set for ourselves. First of all because it is an iconic car like the Jaguar E-Type, the Mercedes 300 SL Gullwing or the Fiat 500; secondly because the aesthetic canons that it represents are immortal in… Read More Flat floor: 1956 Porsche 356 Speedster
