September 25 And here it is in Italy… April 15 And yet it’s still possible to find some Veloce to restore, and this car proofs that.

Whilst the seller of this Appia Convertibile (2nd series, chassis #812.01.3810) is not sure about what shade of gray his car is painted of, we are pretty sure that this is a very nice project. That is because this car appears, first of all, very solid. I have a Vignale Convertibile in the same conditions… Read More Two shades of grey: 1960 Lancia Appia Convertibile by Vignale
This Vignale coachbuilt Lancia has not the exotic look of the same car bodied by Pininfarina or of the convertible made by vignale as well, but still it’s a rare and classy coupé. 481 of these cars were made with the same care given to build cars much more expensive than this, and today very few… Read More Rare coachbuild: 1960 Lancia Appia Lusso by Vignale
This car wanted to be the anti-Fiat 500, unfortunately it was produced too late so it lost the war with the more famous Italian competitor. Nonetheless it was sold in good numbers: when it was exhibited for the first time this little and cute car had more than 20,000 reservations which was a successful debut… Read More Two wheels more: 1960 ACMA Vespa 400
This is the very first time we see this kit car about which we don’t know anything but that it’s based on Triumph TR-4 Engine and chassis.

Nope, we definitely can’t ever imagine that a relict in this conditions could ever be put for sale as a car, but this is it. This car was born as a Porsche 356 T5 Cabrio, and we must admit that, 55 years ago, it came out of the factory with a very nice paint, which… Read More C.S.I. required: 1960 Porsche 356B T5 cabrio
This Alfa Romeo (Type 102) belongs to a series which had not much success: designed to fill the need of the italian upper class families, finally they sold these cars mostly to the government, for representative purposes. The reason why it wasn’t a best seller is clear to everyone: even then, the bulky side of this… Read More Project 102: 1960 Alfa Romeo 2000 Berlina
This relic from the great sixties has arrived to us, brought by his last owner since 1977. It’s a 1960 T5 Roadster with a S75 engine: the seller says that the engine is not inside the car and he has no Porsche Kardex but when he bought the car he was told that the engine… Read More Whitened belly: 1960 Porsche 356B T5 Roadster
You know…when the classic cars market is yet overinflated, what else to do? Just inflate it a little bit more! What we have here is a bunch of Ferrari 250 in need of a total restoration and, moreover, they are not even complete: particularly the 250 spider is basically a body and a chassis, with some… Read More Many millions: Ferrari 250 stash
Lately it has been difficult to see an SS prepared for historic races, mainly because the value of these cars has quadrupled in the last four years. Indeed the seller says that this car was converted to race specification in 2005 (in Italy, of course), a time when many people could afford a car like this… Read More Race dress: 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale
