Update, october 24: One day only and the car is gone. October 24 We believed to have found a very good priced Giulia SS here, but we were wrong. This 1964 Giulia SS looks good, for sure not a concours car but for sure very far to seem in need of a urgent restoration as… Read More Cheaper is harder: 1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint Speciale
What you see here is not what you get. Actually we are oriented in reviewing cars from 1980 backwards but this is really worth a couple of considerations. Indeed this is not a Dino 246 but a Ferrari 308 GTBi which had a new body to seem what it’s not. The seller says that such… Read More Masquerade: 1981 Ferrari 308 GTBi “Dino 246” Coupé
Probably there’s not a classic little car with more class and style than a “Topolino” Belvedere. This car was born to let common people have a little and cheap car but, at the same time, providing them with more space than a standard Fiat 500 for every family need. This particular car is very nicely… Read More Early wagon: 1952 Fiat 500C “Belvedere”
Actually we don’t know the the building year of this car (we mean the Porsche body) as the seller doesn’t specify it; we suppose that this is one of the early “bumpers” cars so we arbitrarily decided to title it as a 1975 car. The seller doesn’t specify the story behind this car as well: it… Read More What you won’t expect: 1975 Porsche 911 “Bigfoot”
Update, october 19 One day has been way enough to sell this car. That’s what we call “a quick sale”. October 18 Apart from GTA’s, the GTV is the rarest model of the Giulia Sprint GT breed: they made it for only two years (’66 and ’67) and in less units than the first series… Read More Grey calls red: 1966 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT Veloce
To the collective imagination the name “Aurelia” means sport, coupè, spider or Touring. But, before all these models, there was an Aurelia built for executives or affluent family men. Indeed this is a four door, six seats fastback pushed by the Lancia V6, the first V6 engine ever made, designed by engineer Francesco De Virgilio. Few,… Read More Family man’s V6: 1956 Lancia Aurelia B12
Update, october 16 Nicola Becherini, grandson of Nicola Becherini (the builder of this car) contacted us giving us more fresh info. First, he says that the body was not crafted by Vignale but by Carrozzeria Fratelli Neri (Neri brothers coachworks) of Tivoli, Rome. He also says that that’s pretty sure that the engine belonged to… Read More One of one: 1949 Becherini Spider by Neri
Sometimes it happens that, because of health issues, death or whatever bad reason it is, an entire collection must go. In this case the seller doesn’t mention the reason of the sale; however the collection has been made putting toghether mostly america cars along with some european spot. It starts from a “Buddymobile”, aka 1949… Read More Classic stash: A collection for sale
Really, the paint job on this car really catches us. Although such paint job could seem a sacrilege, we must admit that it has been realized with a clear project in mind. It doesn’t seem improvised: a very good hand did such job, unfortunately we don’t know when. We could bet on a late ’70’s… Read More Acid paint job: 1961 Chevrolet Corvette “Fuelie”
The seller says that this car (VIN 80798) belongs to his wife’s family since more than fifty years ago. It’s clearly a project car but, as the car has been in the same family for all these years, it should be almost complete and probably rustless (almost). As a project car, interiors have been disassembled… Read More The wife’s car: 1955 Porsche 356 Speedster
