Due to a diminished eyesight, the owner of this barn is forced to clear all the stuff inside among which there are a Lancia Flavia Coupé 1.5, a Beta Zagato plus a couple of Fiats: a 1200 Cabriolet and a 600 Cabriolet. The seller did not go very far in describing his projects: he says… Read More Barn clearance: Fiat and Lancia projects
It’s very rare, at this point, to find a 356 Cabrio to restore (yep, 356: the “pre-a” nickname have never been used by Porsche), and finding a very early ’52 car it’s like to win a (little) lottery. Also because, even though this car (chassis #15005) clearly needs a huge amount of work, it is basically… Read More COD 420: 1952 Porsche 356 Cabrio
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.

Nope, we definitely can’t ever imagine that a relict in this conditions could ever be put for sale as a car, but this is it.
