The seller says, to whoever read his ad, that instead of talking forever to the telephone pretending to know everything about these cars, the best thing to do is to see this car in person. We talked several time of these special and underrated cars built in Italy over a Ford Taunus chassis and engine,… Read More Come see it: 1967 OSI 20M TS 2.3
We wrote several times about these special Abarth built on the Fiat 600 chassis with an aluminium body designed and crafted by Allemano but, as long as we like them, we don’t miss a chance to publish one when we find it for sale. This car was delivered new in the U.S.A. and soon it… Read More H Class racer: 1959 Abarth 750 Spider by Allemano
There is enough stuff to rebuild this rare 356 SC (chassis #162087) which has been disassembled 19 years ago in order to restore it, however many parts are missing. The seller says that all the body and metal work has been completed by previous owner and ready to be painted but, as already mentioned, for… Read More Much metal: 1965 Porsche 356 SC Cabriolet
“Spyder” is not a typo: actually we’ve checked the period sale brochure and, indeed, Cisitalia called these open cars “Spyder”, just like the Porsche 550 RS. Strange indeed. Back to this particular car, we suspect that this could be the same car we’ve published here some months ago but we’re not sure of it, so… Read More Fair price: 1961 Cisitalia-Abarth 850 Spyder by Allemano
It’s not easy to find a Glass GT for sale which is still in restorable conditions and, when you find one, it probably has been painted in “resale red” just like this one. Whatching the inner door panels and the engine bay it’s clear that this car was born in a beautiful metallic pale blue… Read More Resale red: 1966 Glas 1700 GT
Early Porsche yesterday, early Porsche today. This is the time of one of the first 912 made which, in this configuration, were also known as “painted dash” because, as the nickname says, the dashboard was not black but painted with the same color of the body. It seems a minor feature but, in the collector… Read More Burbank find: 1966 Porsche 912 “Painted dash”
Indeed. Porsche enthusiasts know well that, aside from the Carrera, this is the most sought after Speedster as only 200 were built in the first producion year, 1954. Zero description by the seller so you will have to settle on what we say about this car: as just written this car belongs to the first 200… Read More Blind red: 1954 Porsche 356 T1 Speedster
“Attention investors/collectors” is the title of this ad, in order to notify them that this is not a cheap classic but almost a blue chip classic car which has been priced fairly. And indeed we must admit that, if this car (chassis #2265223) is as good as it seems, it has been actually put for… Read More Investors warned: 1973 BMW 3.0 CSI
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
This car was not built by Fiat but by Ghia which used indeed the Fiat engine, gearbox and suspensions but not the chassis: this one was designed by Gilco, an italian company specialized in building lightweight tubular frames. Less than 1,000 cars like this were made as these were not sold by the official Fiat… Read More Gilco bones: 1964 Fiat 1500 GT Coupé by Ghia
