This Flaminia Coupé is painted with the Lancia Blue shade: for the uninitiated, this shade was not “out of the box” but it was the outcome of a very special paint process, involving multiple stages. Of course the Lancia blue were often mated with the red interior just like this car; that’s a very elegant… Read More True color: 1960 Lancia Flaminia 2500 Coupé by Pininfarina
This Glas 1700 GT is one of the few built in 1967 before BMW took over: since that moment these cars were produced with the BMW badge. So, few of these cars are still around; we have published a couple during the past years and it’s always nice to spot another one for sale: first… Read More Not really a roller: 1967 Glas 1700 GT
The seller of this racing-look MG A 1500 Coupé is actually a Classic Virus reader and, by the way, he told us that he’s also the actual owner of this car which, after many improvements, won the 1st prize (category 1956-1975) at the Antwerp Classic Salon of this year: congratulations both for the car and… Read More Green racer: 1958 MG A 1500 Coupé
Time has been hard on this Fulvia Zagato which, not only had to endure time and weather, but also the odd creativity of some previous owner. The car has been for sure leaved outside for years, so we can spot the dashbard wood which has rotten due to the water infiltrations through the windscreen gasket. Of… Read More Mutation/2: 1969 Lancia Fulvia 1300 Coupé by Zagato
The right balance indeed as during the last years you could find perfect 356 at crazy prices or, on the other side, hopeless wrecks, also these at high prices. This car indeed seems to be the right balance between features, conditions and price: that’s a matching number T6 S90 (so with the most powerful engine… Read More The right balance: 1962 Porsche 356 B T6 S90
Sometimes it happens to find a Maserati Ghibli for sale on eBay; most time they’re good cars or wrecks; this one is a car which has a good appearance however it needs work, much work. Indeed this car (chassis AM115/614) has the typical aspect of a good driver and maybe it is but, having restored… Read More California Euro: 1969 Maserati Ghibli Coupé
That’s not easy to find a true barn find Coupé Deville in the (almost) same shape as when it left the factory, but sometimes it still happens and this blue ’59 proofs that. By the way we never saw this color combo on a ’59: we’ve far away to be Cadillac experts but we’ve seen hundreds… Read More Fifty years long sleep: 1959 Cadillac Coupé Deville
The first thing that has caught our attention about this car is the beautiful pale blue mated to the striking red leather interiors. Then we realized that this coupé has the OSCA engine too. That’s not the most powerful Fiat OSCA made (like the 1600S 118B): this engine is 100 c.c. smaller and it is fed… Read More Blue meets red: 1961 Fiat 1500 OSCA Coupé by Pininfarina
More than a proper coupé this Granluce (something like “great light”) is basically a two door sedan: actually back in the early fifties this was the cutting edge Fiat model just after, of course, the 8V. And few knows that this car was originally designed to be pushed by the famous 8V Fiat engine, mostly because… Read More Panoramic view: 1954 Fiat 1900 “Granluce” Coupé
This is the first black and white Flaminia Coupé Pininfarina we’ve seen on the market: black and white like the decade which it belongs to. Indeed many of these cars usually were painted in dark, sober colors as the average owners of these were mid-aged professionals or industrialists. We could see the same for the… Read More Black and white: 1964 Lancia Flaminia Coupé by Pininfarina
