The Monviso body shop was not new to the standard Fiat modification, to create special cars for those wealthy customers who wanted to stand out from the crowd. Clearly Monviso was one of the dozens of Italian bodyshops that dedicated themselves to this kind of work, but it was one of the largest and in… Read More Almost blue: 1948 Fiat 1500 Stella Alpina by Monviso
We will be brief and concise in describing this car, starting in particular from some collecting considerations. The considerations are far from complex: in essence the Karmann Ghia cabrio is a car built with the typical solidity of a German product, with a line designed in Italy and, last but not least important, with a… Read More Most of the top: 1958 Karmann Ghia Cabriolet
Older and older: this is the market trend on the Porsche 356 which, in the models prior to ’55, have experienced a real boom in recent years. Surely the motivation is linked purely to aesthetics: these are slow cars, they do not have a great sound and are and by many considered simply as an… Read More Missing windshield: 1953 Porsche 356 Cabriolet
It is a strange feeling to see in reality a car seen only in the photos of a book: this is the case of this Moretti 2300 S Cabriolet. As connoisseurs of classic Italian cars can imagine, this creation of the Moretti coachworks started from the base of a Fiat 2300 S: reliable and powerful,… Read More It exists: 1962 Moretti 2300 S Cabriolet
Although we have published other Simca 8s in the past, none of them was in the conditions of this convertible that looks like a real time capsule. The seller says that this car has been brought in the US when his service was over very common in those years: That’s not the first time we… Read More Flash inside: Simca 8 Cabriolet by Pininfarina
Exactly six years ago, on February 25, 2013, we published an article titled “Patina monster”: that time it was a Volkswagen Beetle while this time it’s her cousin. It’s a Porsche 356 Cabriolet from 1960: once I had the same color even in the color but it was much worse than this which has instead… Read More Patina monster/3: 1960 Porsche 356 B T5 Cabriolet
It is not the first time that we publish a Peugeot 403 Cabriolet and let’s hope that it is not even the last, especially when that’s about a barn find. In fact, the seller claims that this cabriolet, built in little more than 2,000 specimens by Pininfarina, is a true barn find in the sense… Read More A restaurer: 1957 Peugeot 403 Cabriolet by Pininfarina
This little roadster produced by Siata in the immediate post-war period was made on the chassis of the Fiat 500C but with a hand-beaten skin. It was in fact a car designed for a more demanding (and economically stronger) clientele that could require various customizations both in the set up and in the color, moreover… Read More Little green roadster: 1949 Siata Amica Trasformabile
It is not the first time that we find one of these very rare cars for sale: to be precise it is the second time, but the car published a few months ago was slightly different from this one. The reason is simple: unlike the first published here, this belongs to the first series (impossible… Read More More than rare: 1960 Fiat 600 Capri by Caprera
The car we are publishing is only one but the same seller is also selling a 356 “Notchback” currently for sale, and parked in the same garage. The one we are dealing with is, in fact, a T5 Cabriolet of 1961 (chassis # 153931) that seems in excellent condition: it was parked ten years ago… Read More Two in a shed: 1961 Porsche 356 B T5 Cabriolet
