We owe an apology to Federico, our reader who reported this splendid specimen to us ten days ago: unfortunately we missed his email and only noticed it yesterday. We still try to make up for lost time. The car in question is a fantastic and very rare Fiat 500F transformed into a “Spiaggina”, i.e. part… Read More Spring break: 1968 Fiat 500F Albarella by Savio
The Fiat 850 platform has lent itself over the years to be used for the most diverse uses: van, ambulance, hearse, work vehicle, and also for very special uses like this one. It is not the first 850T that we have seen transformed in this way: in its golden years, Fiat commissioned these cars which… Read More Just one: 1968 Fiat 850T “Visitors” by OSI
We will never get tired of the madness of the 70s, which very often found one of its forms of expression in the extreme customization of cars. Here it is no longer a question of “taste”, but only of observing a snapshot of those years represented by a 1968 Chevrolet Corvette roadster: it is certainly… Read More Big Banana: 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible
We have seen more than a 1600 GT for sale in recent years, and in various conditions, but this one looks by far the best. First of all, because it has a typically “BMW” color, both outside and inside, and then because it appears to be in unique condition: it looks perfect inside and out,… Read More Silver bimmer: 1968 BMW 1600 GT by Frua
Pininfarina is certainly the best known Italian coachbuilder in the world, and certainly not without merit, but in our opinion Bertone was the one who “dared” most of all. By “daring” we mean that Bertone has always been the one who designed the bodywork with that extra inspiration that you would not expect, with solutions… Read More The french italian: 1968 Simca 1200S Coupé by Bertone
While it is true that rarity in itself does not make a car more desirable, it is equally true that rarity makes a classic car certainly full of charm and, at times, of mystery. This is a very rare “van” version of an Autobianchi Bianchina that had a platform suitable for loading objects as the… Read More Open top: 1968 Autobianchi Bianchina Furgoncino
Probably, among the classic cars, there is no sedan that is better read to sports modifications, and this example is the proof of this. In fact, it was born as a 1300 TI and registered in Italy (it still bears the first original black plate) but since then it has come a long way: all… Read More Bad attitude/2: 1968 Alfa Romeo Giulia 1300 TI
Mistral is a strong, cold, northwesterly wind that blows from southern France into the Gulf of Lion in the northern Mediterranean. And like the wind of the same name, this Maserati too can leave the observer rather “frozen”. There is in fact a lot to do with this car, indeed, there is not a single… Read More Cold wind: 1968 Maserati Mistral 4.0 by Frua
Technically speaking, this Mustang GTA is a one-of-a-kind specimen. Clearly its uniqueness is due to a combination of features testified by its Marti Report. Let’s start with the fact that, Marti Report aside, this GTA looks like a real survivor, a car that has never been restored and arrived intact to us: the seller says… Read More Surviving raven: 1968 Ford Mustang GTA 390 Fastback
Interceptor is the name given in the 1960s to the engines installed on police cars for pursuit: the most famous is the 428 cubic inch one first installed by Bob Tasca Sr. on the second series Mustang. Shelby also did not miss the opportunity to use this engine for “his” Mustangs: initially it was thought… Read More Interceptor: 1968 Shelby Mustang GT500
