This 1953 MG TD features a classic British Racing Green (Woodland Green, exactly) paint along with a very clean and straight look. The seller says that this car is one of the last of this series, being the 253rd away from the last one produced. The seller says also that the tires are brand new.… Read More Pure british look: 1953 MG TD2
We are used to see many million dollars cars racing the Mille Miglia: actually this car represents the cheapest entry point for such historic race. In fact, every year at least five 1st series Fiat 1100-103 TV are admitted to the race, and this car belongs to the same breed. We are pretty sure that… Read More Mille Miglia entry: 1955 Fiat 1100 TV
We know that this is a hopeless project, but we couldn’t resist to such patina. This car is said to come from a southern California backyard, and it’s not hard to believe it. We wonder if they checked if some hen is still crouching under the front seats. The seller says that this car comes… Read More Patina monster: 1955 Volkswagen Bug
John Cooper was the first (officially) who had the intuition of placing the engine behind the driver. Enzo Ferrari himself didn’t agree with this idea as, according to him, “steers have to pull the cart, not to push it”. Many years later, Ferrari converted himself to Cooper’s religion. About this particular car, the seller says… Read More Methanol fed: 1956 Cooper Junior X1 Formula 3
One of the best things of the classic cars hobby is that your certainties are continuously questioned. In this particular case, just when we thought to know (or, at least, to have seen) all the Italia 2000 survived so far, here is another one that pops out from darkness. We will not pull out about… Read More #95: 1960 Triumph Italia 2000 Coupé by Vignale
Lancia stopped its rally career in 1992: that’s incredible but it still is the greatest rally championships winner with 11 times. Part of this record is due to this car, called “Fanalone” (“big headlight”) because the rally cars needed bigger headlights for night special stages. The seller says that the engine number of this car… Read More Rally queen: 1970 Lancia Fulvia 1600 HF “Fanalone”
The bigger, the better: this is what’s befittingly to this car. This car features a magnificent streamline design and a color which perfectly matches all those curves. This car is much more cute in this two door version as the tail is perfectly joined with the roof line and then softly slopes towards the rear… Read More Bug on steroids: 1948 Pontiac 8 Streamliner Coupé
This MG J2 is a former trial races heroine (as the b/w period photo witnesses; the car has still the same plate), and the seller provides also some papers which tell that this car won two first places in class in 1934. This car come also with many period fixing up invoices from 1933 to… Read More Trial lady: 1933 MG J2
This ’70 Scalino (aka stepnose or stepfront) belongs to the last year’s batch produced with this face. The seller says that this car has been imported from Italy after it has been bought from the second owner. It is said to have 12,354 kms from new, and it’s described as a “Time warp”. This car is… Read More Time warp: 1970 Alfa Romeo GT 1300 Junior
This Flaminia Coupé (pretty rare, as little more than 1000 cars were built with the 2800 c.c. engine with three carburetors) shows a nice stone grey paint, chrome and a solid look. Again, this italian car is the typical “almost survivor” car, perhaps cared during its life probably with a respray and new chrome. As… Read More Wrinkled leather: 1966 Lancia Flaminia Coupé 2.8 Pininfarina
