This specimen belongs to the latest generation of the F12 series, whose production would end in 1983. That it is a late model can be seen from the greater presence of plastic compared to the previous series, especially in the passenger compartment whose design begins to “smell” of the 80s. In addition to this, it… Read More Farm worker: 1978 Alfa Romeo F12 Diesel
What is more important, whether a car is fast or it looks fast? We are confident that everyone has their own answer in mind, and that this car was designed to answer those for whom the second option mattered.

The seller says that… Read More Banana Split’s car: 1978 Mini Custom

The seller says that actually this car was initially prepped by Autodelta, but then the owner wanted a special touch… Read More Bad to the bone: 1978 Alfa Romeo Alfetta by Mikylauto
It is the first time we see such dark red on a 308, after having consulted the color codes for the 1978 we found out that this color was called by the factory “Rosso Dino”. As it usual happens on CL, the ad features few, ugly photos and a poor, almost missing description. The obly things… Read More Not the usual red: 1978 Ferrari 308 GTS
Sometimes we are dazzled by cars worthy a lot of money on the actual market, and often what is more expensive looks also more aestetically attractive, but sometimes you need just to look under the stage to find cheaper, albeit beautiful, alternatives like this 504 Cabriolet. The 504 Cabriolet, designed by Aldo Brovarone at Pininfarina, was not… Read More Beautiful Cinderella: 1978 Peugeot 504 Cabriolet by Pininfarina
