Orlandi built cars? Never heard of it before. So, we did a check on the book “La Sport e i suoi artigiani” which is the most important book eve made about the italian cars, but no trace of this car. And yet, Orlandi was a known coachbuilder specialized in building truck and coaches but we… Read More Unknown: 1955 Fiat 500C Barchetta by Orlandi
There are many Porsche 356 for sale, in any condition and with prices which range from few bucks (for a late car wreck without engine) to one million and even more. Few have a correct price/condition ratio and even fewer are affodable. Now, we’re not saying that this is – strictly speaking – an affordable… Read More Drive the dolphin: 1964 Porsche 356C Coupé
This period seems actually good for finding many 356 cabrio which have been stored for a long time just like this one, parked in 1973 and never been used since. As often happened, this is a car (chassis #160767, engine #732290, transmission #80335) bought in 1965 by the american owner while serving the army in… Read More Cool silver: 1964 Porsche 356 C Cabrio
This Porsche 356 C Cabrio is actually a survivor: abandoned in a garage (or barn) many years ago, now it sees the light again. There are not many photos, especially under the boot and the lid but it seems that everything is there: clearly the only thing missing is the lid grille but it’s not… Read More Inside forever: 1965 Porsche 356 C Cabrio
This rare Alfa Romeo 1900 C built by Zagato is said to have been parked for years in a collector’s garage which, other than this car, accomodates also other important cars like a Cisitalia Aerodinamica built designed by Savonuzzi. I remember well when I found one of these, a green one in good conditions, ten… Read More Sleeping with the enemy: 1954 Alfa Romeo 1900C by Zagato
“Another one to restore” we thought when we’ve seen the thumbnail of this 356C which looked like a car just like many other 356: a lot of rust and few things to save. Actually this car is has been (almost) totally restored: the owner wanted for sure to preserve the “ratty” look without compromising reliability… Read More Flawless: 1965 Porsche 356C Coupé
The Porsche featured in Doc Hollywood, starring Michael J. Fox, not only was a Speedster but it was also a fake: this car indeed is not a Speedster but it has been found in a Hollywood garage and, last but not least, it’s a real Porsche. It’s, exactly, a 356 C coupé which has been… Read More Doc Hollywood: 1964 Porsche 356 C
There is a very active bidding for this survivor 356 C Cabrio (chassis #161129) which actually should be a full matching number car, well preserved during the last 50 years. Full matching numbers car not because so says the Kardex but because the car has a full pack of documentation since it was new, among… Read More No shenanigans: 1965 Porsche 356 C Cabrio
We have seen many ads of Innocenti Spider for sale during the years, but this is the very first time we stumble across a Coupé. We don’t know the production numbers of this car but it’s easy to suppose that very few were built, and even less have survived so far. This cars is based… Read More Hen’s tooth: 1970 Innocenti 950 Coupé
Probably there’s not a classic little car with more class and style than a “Topolino” Belvedere. This car was born to let common people have a little and cheap car but, at the same time, providing them with more space than a standard Fiat 500 for every family need. This particular car is very nicely… Read More Early wagon: 1952 Fiat 500C “Belvedere”
