This Giulietta Sprint Veloce has belonged to the same owner for 20 years but is said to have been taken off the road in 1977: on the one hand this is negative… Read More Sleeping bialbero: 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Veloce
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
Take a 1960 American coupe, make it 1:2 scale and you get a BMW 700 Coupé like this one. Statistics say that just over 9,000 examples of this model were built by the Bavarian factory, but obviously there were much fewer in the USA: after all, the American who bought this car did it to… Read More Little fins: 1960 BMW 700 Sport Coupé
Everyone in the past has enjoyed the little 190 SL built – let’s not lie to ourselves about that – to provide a roadster for customers who couldn’t afford the 300SL. That doesn’t mean this car was cheap at the time – it cost twice as much as an American luxury sedan and if you… Read More Appalachian star: 1960 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL

However, under that layer of rust that you see there is still a 190 SL which, according to the seller, has matching numbers and also has a hard top, an… Read More Hole in the pocket: 1960 Mercedes 190 SL
We know well that, among the dozens of Piedmontese shops active until the 1960s, Fissore was the most specialized in the reworking of vans or vehicles for professional use. We were therefore not surprised, on the one hand, to find for sale this very special 600 Mutipla, nicknamed “Sabrina” by the Turin coachbuilder. On the… Read More Special van: 1960 Fiat 600 Multipla “Sabrina” by Fissore
One of the problems that often happens to those who are restoring a Spider Veloce is the absence of the original engine. There is the possibility of finding them around but often at extremely high prices: here instead we have a cheaper option. The engine is that of a second series Veloce produced starting from… Read More Spare Bialbero: 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce Engine and Transmission
Of the many Giulietta Spiders we published, very few, indeed probably none (at least as far as we can remember) were black.

Black is a color that according to me gives a lot to this car:… Read More Black shade: 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce
