Graduate from the 80’s: 1967 Alfa Romeo Duetto

We know more or less everything about this Duetto: the seller was clear about his conditions, but there is one thing – not a detail – that we have not understood. What is not clear (perhaps because it escaped us both in the auction and in the video published by the seller) is the engine… Read More Graduate from the 80’s: 1967 Alfa Romeo Duetto

Cabin fever: 1957 Heinkel Kabine 200 Typ 154

The Heinkel Kabine was a microcar designed by Heinkel Flugzeugwerke and built by them from 1956 to 1958. Clearly this car owes a lot to the ISO Isetta. The 1950s saw a remarkable flowering of Microcars, this is quite obvious because on the one hand there was a growing need for mobility, on the other… Read More Cabin fever: 1957 Heinkel Kabine 200 Typ 154

Big bumpers: 1983 BMW 633 CSI

It is nice to find rare, special or unique history cars for sale. The only problem (for 99% of enthusiasts), is that cars with these characteristics almost always have unattainable prices. Yet there are also many cars, secularly in the so-called “youngtimer” segment, which are very interesting and have affordable prices provided – be very… Read More Big bumpers: 1983 BMW 633 CSI

Rare sunroof: 1964 Ferrari 330 GT 2+2

We are pleased to note that this seller we have known for years has been threading some remarkable barn finds one after the other, and they are almost always high level cars. The most noteworthy is certainly the 300 SL Roadster, a single owner, found not many weeks ago, while today we are talking about… Read More Rare sunroof: 1964 Ferrari 330 GT 2+2

Clean cab: 1950 Volkswagen Beetle Cabriolet

We have already written on other occasions how difficult it is to find a nice, early Typ 1 specimen for sale, and we meant a specimen with a closed roof. Finding a cabriolet is extremely unlikely. All the more if we are talking about a specimen – according to the seller – which has never… Read More Clean cab: 1950 Volkswagen Beetle Cabriolet

Patina monster/5: 1961 Ferrari 250 GTE

“They are still out there,” a user of a forum to which I was subscribed (and occasionally I still attend) used to say. He said it ten years ago but it is clear that that statement is still valid. The proof is this 250 GTE first series found in exceptional conditions maintained by the last… Read More Patina monster/5: 1961 Ferrari 250 GTE

Dusty razor: 1967 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Type 34

For all those who are not profound connoisseurs of the classic Volkswagen models, the naming convention of the different models can be confusing. In the specific case, here we are facing a Type 34. This model was joined to the “classic” Karmann Ghia that we all know to provide customers with a more powerful and… Read More Dusty razor: 1967 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Type 34

Small displacement: 1976 Lamborghini Urraco P200

It is rare to find one of these Urraco P200 for sale and not only because it is a Lamborghini: only 66 were built. The reasons for these small numbers are essentially two: on the one hand, the fact that we are talking about an expensive sports car created just three years after the biggest… Read More Small displacement: 1976 Lamborghini Urraco P200

Vintage dust: 1960 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster

“The Cobra in the Barn: Great Stories of Automotive Archeology” was a book published in 2005 by Tom Cotter, which met with moderate success among classic car enthusiasts: it would certainly have included this 300SL if it had been resurrected 15 years before. Seeing the photos of the ad surprised us: first of all because… Read More Vintage dust: 1960 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster

HIR 993: 1962 Maserati 3500 GTi by Touring

When, in the world of classic cars, it is said “it is original only once”, it is not just the fact that it left the factory and is no longer modified. That saying also means that, as people get to grips with it, some details – related to the finishing of one part or the… Read More HIR 993: 1962 Maserati 3500 GTi by Touring
