In the same year that the Mustang starring in the film Bullitt was built, Ford produced an even more powerful version of the one that jumped on the bumps of Russian Hills. This is the 428 Cobra-Jet, certainly best known in the declination of 1969 and 1970: in 1968 only about 1300 specimens of the… Read More Green snake: 1968 Ford Mustang GT Fastback 428 R-Code
Whoever conceived this van was clearly inspired (and driven) by the great success of its most famous rival, the Volkswagen T2.

The history of Intermeccanica is very varied: from its birth in Italy, to the passage to the American continent there would be a lot to say, but this is not the topic of the article. Of course we can say that it produced beautiful cars and if it did not have the success it deserved… Read More Sunburnt/2: 1968 Intermeccanica Italia Spider

We like off-road vehicles (after all, it is difficult to find a classic two, three or four-wheel vehicle that does not arouse our interest) but clearly it is more difficult to find a classic off-road vehicle for sale because up to 40 years ago very few were produced. In the USA there was Jeep and… Read More Not abused: 1973 Ford Bronco
