Rare barnfinds, spectacular restoration, perfectly preserved cars: these are the categories that most attract collectors or classic car enthusiasts; however, reality is also made up of other categories. In fact, between the extremes there is a reality in the middle that is less fascinating for the imagination, but certainly more appropriate for the wallet: or… Read More 20 footer: 1963 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider
It has happened sometimes to write an article about a René Bonnét Le Mans and, whenever we find one for sale, especially a cabriolet, we will do it again, just because we like this car. Indeed, despite not having the appeal of a special Italian car with aluminum bodywork, it represents very well the French… Read More Hardtop equipped: 1963 René Bonnét Le Mans Cabriolet
This is one of the few existing 1300 TS Siata, built on the basis of the Fiat 1300/1500 and designed by Michelotti. And it has also been completely restored! It is not a small thing because the restoration of a classic car, if done well, is very expensive and certainly in this case, the seller… Read More Burgundy special: 1963 Siata 1300 TS Coupé by Michelotti
Among many experiments of merging the italian style with foreign machinery, there is one less known than others, the Hillman Imp dressed by Zagato. Both Zagato and the Rootes group (owner of Hillman) decided to go on with this experiment involving the Hillman Imp so the name of this car, then, changed in “Zimp” and… Read More The experiment/2: 1963 Hillman “Zimp” by Zagato
As an Italian-American hybrid, there were not a lot of choices about the engine to be used: for this luxury coupé mr. Rivolta, along with Bizzarrini, decided to choose the Corvette engine mated to a four speed trasmission. Bertone, thanks to the magic hand of Giugiaro, put his signature on the body lines and the… Read More Corvette inside: 1963 ISO Rivolta IR340
The Daimler SP 250 is the typical car that can be loved or hated: it’s difficult to find someone for whom the look of this car is indifferent. Clearly the seller loves it so much that he owns three of them. The first one is a 1961 BRG car which has been converted into a race… Read More Package deal: 1961, ’62 and ’63 Daimler SP 250
This car has no feelings but, at the same time, has a special heart: it’s not the common aircooled, pushrod engine of the common 356’s of that period but a very rare four cam engine. That’s because this is a 356 Carrera 2 GS, not your common 356. Very few were made and, back then,… Read More A special heart: 1963 Porsche 356 B T6 Carrera 2
Here is one representative of one of the oddest italian design experiment. That’s not cute at all – at least for most people – but it’s special, and we like it just for this reason. This particular car is pained in orange which we don’t recall to be a standard color for these cars, maybe… Read More Orange blood: 1963 Lancia Flavia Sport by Zagato
“I’m a different person, yeah, turn my world around…” (Lola’s Theme, The Shapeshifters) This Giulia SS has changed a lot outside. We don’t know by the hand of who and when, fact is that the body has been completely rebuilt taking inspiration, clearly, from the TZ and some element from the Superflow, especially for the… Read More Mutation/3: 1963 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint Speciale
This 356 T6 Coupé is, in our opinion, much better than it could look at a first glance: it seems a solid car with a very nice color combo with one main issue. The issue is that the engine is missing: it could seem a big bug but the truth is that a 356 with… Read More Potential outlaw: 1963 Porsche 356 B T6
