Paint it blue: 1956 Porsche 356A Cabriolet

It’s not easy in our days to find a 356A Cabriolet for restoration that isn’t a mass of rust and still has its original engine, yet here is one. Moreover, this car was born in Aquamarine Metallic, a rather rare color, although it’s evident that over the years, it has undergone several layers of paint,… Read More Paint it blue: 1956 Porsche 356A Cabriolet

Time traveler: 1936 Peugeot 301 D Coupe

In 1932, just three years after the 1929 crisis, many sectors of the economy were on shaky ground, including (and especially) the automotive industry. Many industries in the Old Continent were forced to close, while others had to drastically reduce production. Against the tide, Peugeot chose to fight the crisis by continuing to invest in… Read More Time traveler: 1936 Peugeot 301 D Coupe

Rare find: 1966 Alfa Romeo 2600 Spider by Touring

Well, yes, we are faced with a rare car not so much for the model itself (although it is quite rare as only about 2,200 units were produced), but for its condition. In the last ten years, many specimens in these conditions have been unearthed and restored. So, if you don’t have $150,000 at once… Read More Rare find: 1966 Alfa Romeo 2600 Spider by Touring

1 of 7: 1960 Seat 1400 Cabriolet by Serra

We always experience a pleasant sense of amazement when we come across a car whose existence we were not aware of, as was the case with this Seat convertible brought to our attention by our reader Kyle, whom we thank for the tip. The brand itself, especially outside of Europe, is little known. Added to… Read More 1 of 7: 1960 Seat 1400 Cabriolet by Serra

1 of 98: 1967 Toyota 2000 GT

One of the most beautiful cars ever made, paradoxically, is also one of the least known to the general public. Certainly, classic car enthusiasts are well acquainted with it – not least because its valuations are extremely high. Yet, we have encountered people who had never heard of this coupe made in very few examples,… Read More 1 of 98: 1967 Toyota 2000 GT

Another one: 1955 Fiat 600 Coupé by Monterosa

If we come across one for sale, we can’t help but post it, almost as if it were a moral duty. In reality, the reason is simple, or rather, there are two reasons: the first is that we are fascinated by the small Italian cars built by master coachbuilders of the last century, the second… Read More Another one: 1955 Fiat 600 Coupé by Monterosa

Old slate: 1963 Porsche 356B T6 S Cabriolet

We were talking, a few posts ago, about the search for originality in collecting, and here we have a Cabriolet popping up in a non-exceptional condition, but certainly original. Speaking of the condition, we notice that the car doesn’t appear to have been restored in appearance. In fact, it seems completely original in every part,… Read More Old slate: 1963 Porsche 356B T6 S Cabriolet

Patina monster/10: 1956 Porsche 356 Speedster

There are not many classic cars on which even a heavy patina like this does not detract from their charm, indeed, in this case it is an important plus. Above all because it is the patina of a car born for the road and later, probably in the 70s and 80s, and was adapted to… Read More Patina monster/10: 1956 Porsche 356 Speedster

Rare RHD: 1965 Bristol 409

It is already a rare British car in itself, as only 74 were built (according to Wikipedia). It is certainly a car that was sold at a very high price as, according to the seller, it cost $12,000 at the time, equivalent to $116,000 today, so it was a high-end car in an era in… Read More Rare RHD: 1965 Bristol 409

Nobody moves: 1966 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA

We won’t dwell too much on the description of the car as there is little to see from the photos, but in person there would be far too much to analyze. And the analysis should be made by an expert not only of Alfa Romeo, but of the GTA as this is said to be… Read More Nobody moves: 1966 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA
