Indeed this is the rarest twin-cam fiat of the sixties, and probably of all the twin cams made by Fiat. Actually this car was not built by Fiat but by Vignale coachworks: Fiat never recognized this car as on of their cars so much so these were not sold by official Fiat dealers. Around 100 were… Read More Rare twin cam: 1969 Fiat 125S Samantha by Vignale
This Dino 2000 is said to be a car which needs to be restored: we agree with the seller but that’s a quite good starting point for the job. It has a typical color combo of the seventies: maroon with tobacco interiors (which look made in leather but it seems to good after 45 years,… Read More First see it: 1970 Fiat Dino Coupé 2000
That’s not the first time we publish a car like this one: we’ve published another one few months ago but this later car is even a more refined model. What has astonished us is seeing the front seats that basically are the scaled version of the ones installed into the Lancia Flaminia Coupé/cabriolet by Touring:… Read More Precious seats: 1963 Moretti 750 Coupé
We know that Dutchmen go nut for italian coachbuilt cars of the 50-60 era based on Fiats, so this article is especially dedicated to them. What we have here is a coupè built by Vignale in his earliest times, based on a Fiat 1400. We knew immediately that this is a car made by Vignale as the… Read More Enter the coachbuilt: 1950 Fiat 1400 Coupé “Orchidea” by Vignale
Once we said that France is the place where to buy a Simca: facts prove that we are right. This is a white Simca 1200S (quite rare in this shade) which, although it’s not in outstanding condition, is for sure a very nice driver. It has been resprayed for sure but the overall conditions are good:… Read More White declension: 1967 Simca 1200S Coupé by Bertone
This car is speculated to be one of only three still surviving pickup out of 55 ever made by Giannini: we have never seen one so far. Actually we didn’t know that Giannini made a pickup based on Fiat 500 platform (which Giannini knew very well); indeed we believed that, back in the sixties, Giannini’s… Read More Limited delivery: 1965 Fiat 500 Pickup by Giannini
This Abarth 750 spider has a long time race history and, even now, it’s still hungry for races. Of course this car is not a rocket, its engine produces something around 40/45 hp but they’re enough to push this light car which is even smaller than you suppose: these are very tiny cars but, just for… Read More Long time racer: 1959 Abarth 750 Spider by Allemano
We are generally not oriented in publishing replicas or recreations, but this car deserves few rows. Indeed this is the outcome of an recreational job made 30 years ago by a guy with the help of his son, that’s probably the dream of evry classic car enthusiast father. What is really astonishing is how well… Read More Something less, something more: 1971 Fiat Dino 2400 “GTO”
Our friend Alex has shown us the rarest version of the Fiat 500: It is called Sport and it is speculated that only 2 (other than this car) are around nowadays. Compared to this model, an Abarth 595 is a commodity. Soon after the launch, in 1957, the Fiat 500 was not performing well on the… Read More The rarest of them all: 1958 Fiat 500N Sport
Time has passed since these cars were cheap: now this is the cheapest Fino Dino 2400 around, of course if you exclude wrecks. The 2400 had not only a bigger and more powerful engine than the 2000, but also independent rear suspensions, the same of its noble cousin, the Dino 246 GT. Back then it… Read More The family Ferrari: 1970 Fiat Dino 2400 Coupé
