It’s strange to see one of the 273 cars made with the “118B” specifications painted with two longitudinal white stripes “Cobra-like”, but the classic car market often sets aside these kind of surprises. But, apart from the paint job, the rest of the car looks quite unabused: the seller says that this is a one… Read More White stripes: 1964 Fiat 1600S OSCA Coupé
A couple of times per year it could happen to stumble across a rare 1600S OSCA Coupé “four headlights” (273 made) and so far nothing so special. But when we read such asking price things are a bit different. The seller says that he’s in need to sell the car fast as he’s going to move… Read More Underpriced twin-cam: 1963 Fiat 1600S O.S.C.A. Coupé
It’s the first time we publish an engine alone for sale, but this is a very special and rare piece. We don’t know exactly in what year this engine has been built, so we arbitrarily assigned to it the year 1966. The number is coherent with such engine type and it seems that it has been… Read More The first step: 1966 Alfa Romeo GTA engine
The better priced Fulvia Fanalone around has been used for sure as properly as this car deserves: a lot of stickers on the rear quarter window demonstrate how many rodeos this car joined so far. It is indeed a race-ready car with all the equipment needed for the job: intercom, tripmaster, shift light, fire estinguisher, everything… Read More Monte Carlo calling: 1970 Lancia Fulvia 1600 HF Coupé “Fanalone”
The production of this little BMW fastback began when the german firm bought Glas, a german whorkshop which basically made most of their cars starting from a BMW chassis and engine. Indeed this car started its life as a Glas 1300 GT in 1964: yet then Glas asked to italian master coachbuilder Pietro Frua to… Read More Italian-german hybrid: 1968 BMW 1600GT by Frua
The seller of this modified Giulia 1600 “Ti look” is at least honest: he says that this car has rust (how much?) and dents and that that’s not a show car but a car ready to be driven. Other than that, he says that the original engine has been swapped with a tuned 2000 c.c.… Read More Rust, dents and a power plate: 1967 Alfa Romeo Giulia 1600 Super

Actually “few words” it’s an euphemism as the seller completely forgot to add a description of the car. But more than that, we suppose that the seller thought “car and photos speak by themselves” and we must say that he didn’t go so far from that. Indeed this is a 1600 c.c. car which is… Read More Few words, much car: 1973 Lancia Fulvia Coupé HF 1600 By Zagato
Yes, cheaper is harder, at least to find a 1600 HF like this one. Basically this is a “Fanalone” without big headlights but with the same engine and interiors. Apart from the stunning color – a sort of metallic bronze – the car looks ultra clean, detailed and with every part in its place. The… Read More Cheaper is harder/2: 1972 Lancia Fulvia Coupé HF 1600
Another coachbuilt car this week; however this time it’s not s car simply based on a Fiat chassis but on a tubolar frame with a skin designed and realized by one of the greatest artisans of metal, Bernardo Fissore. This is not a Fiat but a real O.S.C.A., the company founded by Maserati brothers after… Read More Lemon special: 1961 O.S.C.A. 1600 GT by Fissore
