This lowlight Karmann Ghia is said to be a one family car since new, and indeed it looks like an untouched specimen, including the period tires, the black CA plate and the original dealer plate frame. The seller has provided a very detailed description, partitioned in chapters for every area of the car. It comes… Read More One family car: 1958 Karmann Ghia Coupé
Nowadays we use to see a lot of abandoned cars covered by a one finger-tall layer of dirt and dust, and that is defined as “patina”. This early 356 (chassis #51465) is not dusty but indeed it has the real patina. The seller says basically that this car is a survivor: he indeed says that this… Read More Patina is not dust: 1953 Porsche 356 Coupé
We’ve seen many variations made on the great VW, however we must admit that this customisation has been made with great taste and attention to historical details. Of course the owner/customiser has tried to backdate this Combi as the little taillights show, he also put older wheels and used a typical early ’60s color combo. The… Read More Beach cruiser included: 1970 Volkswagen Combi
We believe that Italy was the only place on hearth where someone could think to build a twin cam engine powered van, and that place was Arese, just outside Milano, in a factory called Alfa Romeo. Indeed this van (along with others like Romeo 1° and 2°) is powered by the same single carburetor of the… Read More Twin cam van: 1968 Alfa Romeo F12
This 1st series E-Type has arrived to us from the early days of rock’n’roll: watching those very old tires it’s clear that this former car has been abandoned somewhere many years ago and then cannibalized of its engine and transmission. Now it’s just a rolling chassis. Someone could say that it’s just a parts car as restoring… Read More Rock and rolling: 1963 Jaguar E-Type Coupé
These Cisitalia’s are very rare as they were built when Dusio, founder and owner of the firm, moved to Argentina and there he decided to carry on with his business with the help of his son Carlo. So, most of these cars remained in South America and never saw Europe or U.S.A. Of course these… Read More Southern relic: 1962 Cisitalia DF 85 by Fissore
Virgilio Conrero has been one of the most famous and successful italian tuner of the last century. His career as a tuner began putting his hands on Cisitalia’s soon after the WWII, but his name is mostly gathered with Alfa Romeo: he built his first twin plug head in 1954 and succesfully tuned a lot… Read More Touched by the Genius: 1970 Opel 1900 GT “Conrero Edition”
This blog is now the official home of these cars. Here in another one living in France (like most of these cars, if you exclude Germany) which looks quite good. Differently from the other OSI 20M TS published here, this car has a little boss on the bonnet which could maybe hide an engine bigger… Read More Gimme one more: 1968 OSI 20M TS Coupé
Two are the odd things about this ad: the first is that the seller says that this car was originally painted in “banana yellow”, but so far we didn’t know that was a shade used by Bertone. The other thing is that now the car is painted in a dark bronze color outside, while the engine… Read More Banana, chocolate and tomato: 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint
Actually “Peppe” is the name written by the seller on the ad, we don’t know if it’s real but the most interesting thing is for sure the yellow Innocenti 950 Coupé. We’ve published another car like this one some months ago: we told that it is a rare car and now we realize that probably the… Read More Peppe’s yellow little bird: 1969 Innocenti 950 Coupé
