Of course we all know that cars like a Dino 196S barchetta are unaffordable unless you are some kind of tycoon. Also this car is not cheap but at least there are much more people who could reach it. This is a replica built, as the seller says, 20 years ago by an italian coachbuilder (we… Read More Not real but a good deal: 1959 Dino 196S tribute car
A pre-war car must have something really special to catch our attention and this Lancia for sure has it.

This Merak could not be the cheapest around, but apart from its beautiful and rare color combo there are other things to be considered. If you are a true enthusiast and not just a trader, you can – for example – think that a Porcshe 911S 2.4, with the same horepower and the same number of… Read More French blue from Modena: 1975 Maserati Merak 3000
It’s rare indeed to spot a Mercury coupé which still is the same car of 60 years ago when it left the Mercury factory.

When we have seen at a glance this ad we thought “WOW”: unfortunately it was too good to be true.

Most classic cars nuts don’t even know that once there was an italian car factory called LMX Automobile S.R.L. who produced very few specimens of a GT with a Ford engine and a fiberglass body.

It’s not the first time we see some mix on classic Alfa’s, but this time it’s hard to understand what’s the truth. Indeed the seller says that this is a 1957 car but almost everuthing tells us that this is a 101 series, not a 750. The front clip, the grills, the rear fins and… Read More Mixin’ series: 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint
The Toyota Sports 800 was one of the first production cars featuring a lift-out roof panel, or targa top, pre-dating the more famous Porsche Targa.

As we supposed, here it is another old Alfa by the same seller who’s selling the 6C 2300 published earlier this week. That’s a 1952 5C 2500 bodied by pininfarina: this is a less seductive Alfa as it has four doors but it’s however a rare piece as it’s a special bodied car made… Read More Here is the next: 1952 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Berlina by Pininfarina
