The seller of this beautiful 356 Roadster says almost nothing about this car but that it is the result of a three years long restoration job. Indeed this car looks beautiful in every aspect: although the ad has few words the seller put a lot of photos (we prefer photos to words) which shows a… Read More Three years later: 1960 Porsche 356 B-T5 Roadster
This 1960 Fury Convertible is said to be a barn find and, indeed, it actually seems to be it. The overall conditions of this car are almost exceptional as it looks perfect and complete both inside and outside. Interiors are almost perfect and you can also find the period rocket-age steering wheel which is flattened… Read More Barn find Mopar: 1960 Plymouth Fury Convertible
Here it is another Italia 2000, this time with body #46. It is speculated to be a former italian car (like the 90% of all Italia 2000 produced) and to have been restored in 1998 and then imported in Netherlands. As we have experience with the Italia 200o, we can say that’s a good car,… Read More #46: 1960 Triumph Italia 2000 Coupé by Vignale
This Moretti 750 has been carried out from a barn, along with other italian classics, where it sat for many years. It need a total restoration of course, but it’s a rare coupé, much scarcer than its convertible sister. The car is not so complete as many exterior trims and bumpers are missing and basically… Read More The light, again: 1960 Moretti Tour de Monde 750 Coupé
In the period between mid ’50’s and mid ’60’s many do-it-yourself builders engaged in building race cars, taking inspirations by european barchettas (mostly Ferrari) but with a cost much lower. The most famous of these guys was Bill Devin who established his workshop in El Monte, CA. He began to build fiberglass bodies using various… Read More The american way: 1960 Devin-D/Porsche Roadster
It’s not usual to see a Fiat 1100 in USA, but it’s much more difficult to see a station wagon model: actually these cars are scarce even in Italy so just a real 1100 nut could have imported this car to U.S. Must also say that this car is in very good conditions: the two… Read More Rare in the U.S.A: 1960 Fiat 1100H Familiare
This pretty Italia 2000 (Vignale body #30) is said to have been registered new in Madrid and that it has 88,000 kms from new, which is quite plausible on such car. The most curious thing on this car is the pale blue paint which seems old, probably original, but it’s a shade not mentioned in… Read More Strange color: 1960 Triumph Italia 2000 Coupé by Vignale
This 1960 Maserati 3500 GT was born with a Grigio (grey) color and it has seen much better days. It seems a car forgotten for several decades among nature elements and it carries all the pain of such negligence. The seller says that what you see is what you get: so, whatching the photos, you… Read More Grigio, not Frigio: 1960 Maserati 3500 GT by Touring
And here it is another Italia 2000 which pops out of darkness. The seller doesn’t say anything about the car itself: just few words to tell again the well known history of these cars and the relationships among Ruffino, Michelotti and Vignale. One of the most important information about these cars, the Vignale serial number,… Read More Waiting for a savior: 1960 Triumph Italia 2000 Coupé by Vignale
Here it is one survivor of the 1,075 Eldorado Seville made in 1960. Actually, for us the ’60 Seville is The Cadillac: in that year the Caddy abandoned those huge (and somehow ridiculous) fins to adopt a couple of sleeker and elegant fins on the back end. The Seville had also a particular front/rear grilles,… Read More Gold inside: 1960 Cadillac Eldorado Seville
