It has happened sometimes to write an article about a René Bonnét Le Mans and, whenever we find one for sale, especially a cabriolet, we will do it again, just because we like this car. Indeed, despite not having the appeal of a special Italian car with aluminum bodywork, it represents very well the French… Read More Hardtop equipped: 1963 René Bonnét Le Mans Cabriolet
This too, like the car published yesterday, is a very rare car. Indeed, it is probably a unique example even if we do not have the certainty as these particular cars were produced on commission and highly customized. It’s a coupe built on the basis of the Ford Escort and equipped with a 1300 cc… Read More Italian oddball: 1972 Frua Monte Carlo 1300 GT
This very rare (unique, actually) small spider was built using a Gilco tubular frame and dressed by Zagato. You will not see many others like this around, that’s for sure. Indeed, this car belongs to the large family of special cars that were built to order by wealthy drivers who were planning to participate in… Read More One of one: 1951 Gilco 205 MM by Zagato
This car is not only the same model used by Lieutenant Columbo in the homonymous TV series, but it also seems to be painted in a similar color and in very similar conditions. It is a Peueot 403 Cabriolet, built from 1958 to 1960 by Pininfarina in little more than 2000 specimens, of which some… Read More Columbo’s favorite: 1958 Peugeot 403 Cabriolet by Pininfarina
1954 was the only year of production of this strange roadster, built in fiberglass by Kaiser Motors and equipped with a six-cylinder Ford engine. In 1952 Henry J. Kaiser, the founder of the company of the same name, had decided to counter the invasion of European sports cars with an American product (the Corvette, the… Read More Plastic Fantastic: 1954 Kaiser Darrin 161
This Porsche 911 (chassis # 300827) belongs to the first series, called “901” by the brand experts because the latter is the name that Porsche had decided to assign, until Peugeot reminded Porsche that the names composed of three numbers with a central zero was their trade mark. We would not have expected to find… Read More Alabama 901: 1965 Porsche 911
This 1952 Porsche 356 is certainly in worse condition than the other two pre-a published in the last two weeks, yet it is still in one piece and also quite complete. The state of the body is evident to everyone, but in reality the only real problem is the back of the car has suffered… Read More Transporter inside: 1952 Porsche 356 Coupé
As we know, and as we have reiterated several times, South America often holds surprises, particularly about classic Italian cars. The surprise of this time is a Lancia Aurelia of 1952, so a B21 probably, but certainly not: it could also be a B10, with a 1.8-liter V6 engine, but we do not have such… Read More Southern dust: 1952 Lancia Aurelia B21
Few days ago we’ve found a photo of a totaled Porsche 356B T5 and we posted it onto our FB page: that photo belongs to an actual ad. The car is almost irrecoverable: in fact it is, but at a cost that would greatly exceed its value once restored. What really matters here is the… Read More No emel: 1961 Porsche 356B T5 Coupé
Here is a rare find, not only because very few Siata Daina were produced, but also because we thought it was very unlikely to find one yet to be restored and, for a change, it is red. The last one we found for sal was in a state similar to this, but it was a… Read More Scaled B20: 1953 Siata Daina Coupé
