There are still some around in unrestored condition, but here comes the dilemma: spend the money on the restoration or buy a restored one? Between the two alternatives, at the end of the day, there is no difference. Differently from a few years ago, when original spare parts could be found (much better than that… Read More Rough steel: 1958 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce
If you were told twenty years ago that, one day, you could sell this van for the price it is asking now, you would probably be laughing. But times – and values – change. In fact, these Alfa Romeo vans have undergone a much greater price hike than other cars of the brand such as… Read More Four lights, twin cam: 1961 Alfa Romeo “Romeo 2 Autotutto”
More than three million Fiat 600s were produced in ten years, but very few were dressed by famous coachbuilders. And of those few made, very few have reached us, including this beautiful two-tone specimen which still has the scent of originality in many of its parts which, in fact, are not perfect. In fact, the… Read More Two tone era: 1958 Fiat 600 by Monterosa
When a special on a Fiat 1100 base appears on the market, we have to publish it, we can’t do without it. Even more so if it is one of the very few (don’t ask us how many, but here we are talking about two dozen at best) Cabriolets dressed by Allemano: this car in… Read More The white sibling: 1954 Fiat 1100-103 Convertibile by Allemano
This 356A is very down in the dumps, it will take a lot of work to restore it to acceptable looks and function, yet we believe it is someone’s dream. The reason is obvious: in fact this is a blank sheet from which you can start for any type of creation. In fact, since the… Read More Carbon look: 1957 Porsche 356 A Coupé
This car was the swan song of Carrozzeria Touring, indeed, perhaps it was the cause of its financial meltdown. Let’s start from the beginning: The car was the result of the collaboration between the Rootes group and the Touring body shop, which already assembled the Sunbeam Alpine and the Hillman Super Minx in its Milan… Read More The last song: 1965 Sunbeam Venezia by Touring
Indeed, for fans of classic Italian cars this is a gem: there are many (so to speak) in the spider version but very few in the coupé version. In the era of the transformations of standard Fiat cars, in which all the Italian (and not only) coachbuilder craftsmen tried their hand, OSI could not be… Read More Silver pearl: 1960 Fiat 1200S Coupé by OSI
Not the first facelifted first series Giulietta Sprint we’ve seen, however this (chassis AR1493*03585) is a remarkable example. First of all for the colour: we could be wrong but it is the “Grigio Chiarissimo” colour, very rare and, in our opinion, very beautiful on the lines of this car. The seller says that the car… Read More Flawless grey: 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint
The 70s were very contrasted years: great creative ferment but also a lot of violence: many had to equip themselves accordingly. And so the symbolic vehicle of the Hippie culture has been transformed for a task very far from the one for which it was born. In this case it is a Typ 2 bus… Read More Bulletproof vest: 1975 Volkswagen Typ2 by Fontauto
We never expected to find a project of this type in the middle of the Appalachian Mountains, yet some enthusiasts have tried it in the middle of the forest. Not only passionate, but also skilled: it is clear that this home-made project has been carried out by someone who knows how to handle a hammer,… Read More Rough diamond: 1964 Ferrari 250 GTO replica project
