Our friend Alex has shown us the rarest version of the Fiat 500: It is called Sport and it is speculated that only 2 (other than this car) are around nowadays. Compared to this model, an Abarth 595 is a commodity. Soon after the launch, in 1957, the Fiat 500 was not performing well on the… Read More The rarest of them all: 1958 Fiat 500N Sport
Ludwig Mies Van De Rohe, a famous german/american architect father of the architecture and design minimalism, used to say that “less is more” and that “God is in details”. Unfortunately, both statements don’t fit the purchase of a classic car to restore. What we have here is a wreck of a Giulietta Spider 750 which… Read More Less is less: 1958 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider
This is the third Intermeccanica we find for sale in a month, still we’re not tired to look at it as it’s a beautiful creation. Indeed these cars have not the same allure of the typical italian GT car but they however have the same good thing of cars like ISO or Bizzarrini: a powerful and… Read More Cobra under the hood: 1967 Intermeccanica Italia Coupé
There is a big question here: is this car a true Zagato spider or just a cut car which is useless now? Indeed Zagato built just an handful of these cars and how it often happens for these coachbuild specials, it’s difficult to know the exact number of the specimen produced: to be honest, before… Read More Real or experiment: 1968 Lancia Fulvia Spider by Zagato
This early Giulietta Spider carries a three digits chassis number: it is the #250 to have seen the light out of the Portello factory. It was sold new to Hoffmann in NY and then it was white as the old paint on the dashboard tells us; nothing else has remained of that white which was… Read More 250 from launch: 1956 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider
Two days, two Dino: this is the time of the blue-blooded (and painted) Ferrari and, moreover, it has a removable roof too. Of course the word “cheap” makes you think at a car who could be afforded by an average person: no, this isn’t the case. Indeed this is still a Dino Ferrari and, from what… Read More Cheaper is harder/3: 1972 Dino Ferrari 246 GTS
Time has passed since these cars were cheap: now this is the cheapest Fino Dino 2400 around, of course if you exclude wrecks. The 2400 had not only a bigger and more powerful engine than the 2000, but also independent rear suspensions, the same of its noble cousin, the Dino 246 GT. Back then it… Read More The family Ferrari: 1970 Fiat Dino 2400 Coupé
This is another example about how we are just custodian of these cars, which will survive to us for many years to come. This Giulia Spider Veloce has been bought by a US serviceman in Vienna back in 1966, and then he carried this car home in central US. probably that soldier is not anymore… Read More Tougher than life: 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider Veloce
Let’s begin with saying that this car it’s not a bargain, and we suppose that no-one could believe it is. However, this is so beautiful that deserves to be published. It’s a 1000 Bialbero “Long Nose” from 1964, a car (like most Abarth’s) buillt in order to join every available race accross the world: every detail of… Read More Short car, long nose: 1964 Abarth 1000 Bialbero
Well we’ve seen this car on eBay last friday but our own policy says, with rare exceptions, one car per working day so here she is now. For sure many have seen this car so far even because it’s a rare find: not so rare for the usual seller which has put many of these post-war… Read More Golden retrieved: 1950 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Freccia d’Oro
