We did not know of the existence of this model: in fact we knew the OT 2000 called by the nickname “Monster”, this is the smaller sister. In fact, it seems that very few specimens of this model (technically called 102 / B) were built: this model had to be purchased directly from the racing… Read More Top tier: 1965 Abarth OT 1600
This car is as small as the charisma it emanates is big: you don’t need to be a supercar to turn heads. The merit is a very accurate design and studied in every detail: customers who, more than 50 years ago, bought cars like these wanted to feel driving a high-level car while spending acceptable… Read More Big charisma: 1969 Fiat 850 Sport Racer Berlinetta by Bertone
If, at the end of the 1960s, you had been Italian twenties, not necessarily rich, but at least wealthy, you probably would have asked your father for a car like this. And in fact the target of this car was precisely the kids who could afford a car with a sporty but not as expensive… Read More Red toy: 1969 Francis Lombardi Grand Prix
All Italian classic car enthusiasts know that there is an underlying problem when it comes to Abarths based on mass-produced Fiat models. In fact, if we talk about an Abarth Record Monza or Bialbero, we know with certainty that at least the bodywork and the interiors are original as it would be uneconomical to reproduce… Read More Snappy red: 1967 Abarth OT 1000 Stradale

The car published yesterday was described by its seller with very few words and only one picture. This Abarth OT 1000 too is described with few words but, at least, has several photos. We do not know if it is a car stored or restored, for sure it is difficult that the paint is original… Read More Folk hero: 1967 Abarth OT 1000 Coupé
If this car was as long as its name, now we were looking at a 20 feet car. Indeed, this is te tiniest coupé built by Fiat and designed by Bertone. One of the strangest things about this car is that most of the production was exported to the U.S.A: number says 2,890 out of… Read More Tiny coupé: 1969 Fiat 850 Sport Racer Berlinetta by Bertone
How long has it been since you saw the last Cisitalia for sale? Ok this is the “2nd generation” Cisitalia but, anyway, many months have passed since the last time we saw one for sale. These cars was not entirely built by Cisitalia: the founder’s son, Carlo Dusio, kept on building cars but starting from… Read More Red and open: 1961 Cisitalia-Abarth 850 Spider by Allemano
This is not the first time that we publish one of these specials based on the Fiat 850 chassis and engine, however it’s the first time we see one preserved like this one. Indeed the seller doesn’t say much about the car but that it is a complete car: we’d say that it’s even more… Read More Fading lines: 1969 Francis Lombardi Grand Prix
The seller of these two little coupes must be a Vignale (and Fiat) enthusiasts as he has two of these for sale: it’s quite rare to find one for sale but it’sthe first time we see two in one shot. The odd ting is that both car looks to have the same color: both arepainted (were… Read More One shot, two cars: 1964 Fiat 750 + Fiat 850 Coupé by Vignale
