It’s nice to see cars like this coming up for sale: until a few years ago there were so many but now it seems that they have almost disappeared from the market. We are clearly talking about very special models produced in very few specimens for which we have survived a few, very few. As… Read More Rare bird: 1949 Fiat 1100B Cabriolet by Farina
Yes, we know he is mostly known as “Beetle” but we like to play the part of those who know things from time to time, please forgive us. So this car has several very interesting features: the first, as the title says, is that it has only 4,700 miles driven new and that it was… Read More 4,700 Miles: 1977 Volkswagen Typ1 Cabriolet
This 356 SC is no longer in the possession of the previous owner as it has been confiscated and auctioned off on July 20: it is rare to find classic cars that suffer this fate. It must be said that in recent years the SCs have experienced a surge in prices but in particular the… Read More Foreclosed: 1964 Porsche 356 SC Cabriolet
In our opinion, there should be a specific branch of classic car collecting dedicated to custom-built cars built on a Fiat basis. But we are biased. This is a very rare – and we do not exaggerate much stating that it could be the only one in existence – “St. Leger” built by Bertone in… Read More Blue on blue / 3: 1950 Fiat 1400 St. Leger Cabriolet by Bertone
We do not know who made this conversion and above all, more importantly, we do not know how it was done. The conversion from closed car to open car in fact requires a deep expertise of the torsional forces that are exerted on the body of a car. Nonetheless, we find this specimen very interesting.… Read More The odd cabrio: 1974 BMW 3.0 CSI
There are no errors in the title of the article: this is a 1955 car even though it clearly looks like a car conceived in the 1930s. And there is a reason for this apparent inconsistency. The reason is simple: this is in fact a car from the late 1930s built by the DKW-Audi group… Read More Never seen before: 1955 DKW / IFA F8 Cabriolet Export by Gläser
By now, for those who want it, there are no longer many possibilities to get your hands on a Porsche 356 at a “human” price. When I sold my 356 T5 Cabriolet for $ 47,000 more than ten years ago, it took me six months and even had to accept a car as a partial… Read More Last call: 1963 Porsche 356B T6 Cabriolet
Here is a small convertible that will certainly not make you feel the thrill of speed but it will still make anyone’s head turn when you drive it on the street. We have published others in the past: some in very good condition, some so-so, others still in desperate condition, however they are small cars,… Read More Spotted cabriolet: 1951 Siata Amica
Porsche convertibles up to m.y. 1953 are rare, very rare. And if we add rarity to the well-known marketability of vintage Porsches, very important values begin to jump out. What we see here is even a car from 1952 (chassis # 15051), and here we begin to enter the elite of classic Porsches, especially because,… Read More Former Adriablau: 1952 Porsche 356 Cabriolet
There is little doubt: German cars fared strong in the USA in the 1960s while being far less powerful than an American car sold for the same price. Perhaps due to the exotic charm, perhaps due to the period counterculture that elected Volkswagen (literally “people’s car”) as its representative on four wheels, the fact is… Read More Red find: 1965 Volkswagen Typ 1 Convertible
