In the same year that the Mustang starring in the film Bullitt was built, Ford produced an even more powerful version of the one that jumped on the bumps of Russian Hills. This is the 428 Cobra-Jet, certainly best known in the declination of 1969 and 1970: in 1968 only about 1300 specimens of the… Read More Green snake: 1968 Ford Mustang GT Fastback 428 R-Code
The problem with cars like the Giulietta Spider is that, when they are universally recognized as an “Icon”, their prices break off the ground and start flying high. As a result, it happens that, if ten years ago you could have brought home a beautiful Giulietta Spider Veloce with, say, $ 30,000, today that amount… Read More Sleeping icon: 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider
If not everyone, most of you have already seen a Jaguar E-Type painted with the Union Jack scheme in the 1999 film “Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me” In 1999, the Jaguar E-Type, even those belonging to the first series, had prices far from the current ones: today thinking of painting an E-Type in… Read More Groovy roadster: 1965 Jaguar E-Type OTS
If you have a lot of money on hand and a passion for classic cars, you don’t necessarily have to think about a car from the 50s or 60s. Indeed, in the case of this car we must even talk about the 80s: at the beginning of that decade I was a child, it is… Read More Warrior breed: 1982 Lancia 037 Stradale
Whoever conceived this van was clearly inspired (and driven) by the great success of its most famous rival, the Volkswagen T2. This van was in fact designed starting from the platform of the Ford Falcon, Ford’s “small” one: obviously the dimensions of the Falcon were equivalent, at the time, to the largest sedan produced on… Read More Green draggin’ wagon: 1964 Ford Econoline
Undisturbed actually seems to be the right word: this first series E-Type seems to have been completely forgotten for decades, luckily somewhere indoors. In fact, this car probably comes from some place with a non-dry climate: this is what the traces of moss on the trunk floor tell us. Certainly though, if it had been… Read More Undisturbed: 1962 Jaguar E-Type Coupé
This rare Giulia Spider Veloce has a big flaw but also many good points: the first good point is the combination of colors. It seems that this is the original combination: the bodywork is painted in a very light gray tone (we do not know the factory name) while the interiors are red: we have… Read More Two faces: 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider Veloce
It is certainly one of the most beautiful Maserati ever made, yet it is one of the most forgotten: perhaps because it was not lived in a good period. His life in fact overlapped with the worst oil crisis ever happened, and that crisis claimed several victims, this does not mean that this was probably… Read More Stainless blue: 1972 Maserati Bora 4.7
Paul Bracq is the designer behind the successful E24 series produced by BMW for 13 years: from ’76 to ’89. Personally, Lamborghini, Porsche and Ferrari aside, the E24 series was the dream car of my childhood and, still today, I find its lines of timeless elegance: it is what we call a successful car, and… Read More Land shark: 1983 BMW 633 CSi
Having four seats but not giving up on sportiness (and, why not, on economy): this asked the typical buyer of the OT 850. Clearly even at the time there were many other cars that could meet these requirements, but they were much more expensive cars and therefore difficult to reach by the middle class, consequently… Read More Quick family car: 1966 Abarth OT 850 Berlina
