When you spot a fifty years old Porsche in the countryside you’d expect to see a rusty wreck and that’s true for most of those finds: this one however, is an exception. The seller says there is no rust whatsoever on the car which has been disassembled in order to restore it but clearly the… Read More Outstanding gaps: 1962 Porsche 356B T6 Cabrio
This Giulietta Sprint Veloce (chassis #1493E*25815, engine AR00106*01131) is not one of the valuable 1st series cars: it’s a 101 series but that doesn’t make it less rare than the 750E. Indeed we’ve forgotten the last time we saw one for sale: of course these cars have not the “racing” details of the 750 series:… Read More 2nd generation: 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Veloce
As it often happens the seller didn’t say anything about the build year of this car but we suppose that this is a 1968 car, even though these were built also in 1967 and 1969. Some source say that only a couple of dozens “Samantha” still live: of course these numbers have not any scientific value… Read More A blue one: 1968 Fiat 125 “Samantha” by Vignale
This car is actually a 3.5 litre CS because the original engine have been swapped with a later Motorsport 3.5 unit which, on top of that, is fed by a big turbocharger. All these things together are said to produce 800 hp which is an impressive power even on a modern car full of electronic… Read More 800 hp: 1972 BMW 3.0 CS Turbo
Brooks Stevens, one of the greatest american industrial designers of the 20th century (he designed cars and bikes, along with kithchen appliances and other architectural items) is the father of this very special Cadillac. This car was built on a 1954 Cadillac sedan chassis and so its proportions are huge: it’s a 22 feet long… Read More Retrospective: 1955 Cadillac Die Valkyrie by Spohn
This late 750 Giulietta Spider (chassis #1495.11180) could have been in better conditions than it is but unfortunately both sides are damaged because of a farm equipment which backed into the car from the driver side. Then the car was pushed on another farm equipment on the passenger side: this carelessness now means a salty bill… Read More Hard farming: 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider
Here is another car which doesn’t need a full restoration: it oozes “patina” from every spot and it looks as original as it leaved the factory 55 years ago. Of course it is not a driveable car as it is parked from many years ago but the seller says that the engine turns so we… Read More It’s original once: 1962 Lancia Flaminia Coupé by Pininfarina
The Hemi 426 is probably the most famous engine of the muscle car era: with a stellar power output of 425hp and tons of torque it had basically no rivals on the streets. One of those Hemi engine is installed in this 1970 ‘Cuda (chassis #BS23R0B100003) which is said to be the first Hemi E-body… Read More Millions: 1970 Plymouth ‘Cuda Hemi
This Giulia Sprint GT is advertised as a Veloce but what we can see actually belongs to a “normal” one: however, don’t think that this is much more common than its faster sister. So it is not a Veloce: not only for the wrong steering wheel, dashboard, seats, but most of all for the chassis… Read More Not Veloce: 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT
Dry weight of 1035 kgs (2281 lbs), 170 hp, one turbocharger, 341 units made, one color available: these are the numbers belonging to one of the rarest Alfa made between 1983 and 1984. Of course the engine of his car was the legendary “Bialbero” but fed by an AVIO Alfa Romeo TC2000 turbocharger (often replaced by… Read More Barely driven/2: 1984 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Turbodelta
