We have already spoken in many past articles of the fiberglass era between the mid-50s and the mid-70s: in this period FiberFab was one of the leading companies. In fact, it has created kits for many models: in the past we have published one of these kits, the “Banshee”, installed on the chassis and engine… Read More UK joins US: 1959 Austin Healey 3000 “Banshee” by FiberFab
What’s better than owning a Fiat 1100-103 TV? It probably is owning one that, coincidentally, is also registered with the same province: the Italian one of Treviso or, as an abbreviation, TV. Easy humor aside, we would like to note that the seller, both in the title of the ad and in the description, says… Read More Double initials: 1956 Fiat 1100-103 TV
Summer is the time of year when it is more difficult to find interesting cars: anyone who plans to sell often postpones everything to September, however there are always exceptions. This exception in particular concerns a completely original 356A (although not in an excellent state) which, according to the seller, was parked in a barn… Read More American Fjord: 1959 Porsche 356A Coupé
If there is a difficult undertaking in the world of classic cars, this is finding a car produced after the Second World War up to the 80s in the so-called “communist bloc”, which is beautiful to look at: here is an exception. In fact, this does not surprise us: since the 1920s, the Czech Republic… Read More Eastern bloc roadster: 1959 Skoda 450
Didn’t you know that there is also a four-door version of the Fiat 600? well, now you do. Surely it is not surprising not to know this version, created in very few specimens by Francis Lombardi coachworks: so far we have only seen period photos and advertisings; we suspected that some would have survived but… Read More The variant four: 1959 Fiat 600 Lucciola by Francis Lombardi
This car can be classified as a forerunner of the high-performance coupes that we all know well today. It is in fact a car, produced in very few copies, designed starting from the chassis and engine of the Fiat 2100 sedan, improved from the mechanical point of view by Abarth, from the aesthetic point of… Read More Grand tourer: 1959 Abarth 2200 Coupé by Allemano
“Ashley” is not the name of a friend of ours but that of a model produced by the British company Falcon Shells, a model that we have already published a few years ago. The Competition MKII was in fact introduced in 1959 as a car intended primarily for competitions (as the name suggests) and the… Read More After Ashley: 1959 Falcon Shells Competition MKII
The seller is very clear: the price he asks is for the entire Cadillac lot, consisting of five cars, and is not negotiable. The lot we are talking about includes: a 1954 Series 62 Sedan, blue with white top, a 1959 Six Window Sedan silver 1959 Six Window Sedan, a 1959 Convertible, white with black… Read More Fins everywhere: A Cadillac collection for sale
This Bianchina painted with a very imaginative combination of colors, is one of the very few present on American territory, and this does not surprise us at all. Sixty years ago there was in fact no reason why the average American citizen felt the need to buy a car as big as the trunk of… Read More California (little) dreaming: 1959 Autobianchi Bianchina Trasformabile
Fifty years are, in human terms, a very long time. There are many people who at the age of 50 are not even lucky enough to arrive and others, such as the former owner of this Ace Bristol, have even owned the same car for all these years. The previous owner actually bought the car… Read More Black barn find: 1959 AC ACE Bristol
