One of our readers wrote to us, a few months ago, complaining that we publish too few BMWs: we hope, with this one today, to have satisfied him for a while. In this case it is, to use a term very popular also on European cars, a Hot Rod built on the basis of a… Read More Euro rod: 1974 BMW 1602
We are not into restomods but sometimes we too have to change our minds when we see a spectacular achievement like this 356 A. Indeed it was born as a regular 356 but it was completely modded during the last years with an incredible attention to details and a ton of craftsmanship work. Who did… Read More Power factory: 1956 Porsche 356 A T2 “Outlaw”
This kind of car is not the cup of tea of euro classic cars nuts, with the exception of the Northern Europe, but nowadays it’s really hard to find cars like this one. That’s because this is a real relic of the hot rod era as it is as original (we know that’s a bit… Read More Real thing: 1932 Ford B Roadster Drag Car
We are not into modding, especially on classic italian cars which, in the vast majority of cases, don’t need any modern touch at all, but this time we’ll make an exception. That’s because we find that this car has been modified keeping clearly in mind which are the limits of good taste, limits which, in our… Read More Modded: 1979 Fiat 124 Spider 2.0
This 356 (chassis #102100) isn’t indeed what we’re used to see for sale: this car started its life as a 356A Coupé but its evolution has been a little different by its sisters. The seller is the owner of this car since 1989, an era when you could buy on of these cars for few… Read More Unusual stuff: 1958 Porsche 356A T2 Coupé
There are few ways to sell a car: most of the seller, i.o.o., believe that the car will sell itself but most times they’re wrong. Indeed it’s a well known rule (by marketing people) that you don’t sell a thing but the dream related to it: the seller of this little japanese hot-rod has understood… Read More Nothing’s missing: 1969 Datsun 510
Maybe you already own a Marmon V16 automobile and you need a spare engine or, on the other hand, if you are thinking to build the hot-rod of your dreams, then this engine can be the first stone to put down for your project. This 8.0L engine (#16-663) is said to come from Swigart Museum… Read More The first stone: 1932 Marmon V16 Engine
It’s crazy, it’s odd, it’s a Fiat hot rod. We could never imagine a transformation like this for a Fiat 600D but, like Sir Arthur Conan Doyle used to say, reality is way more bizarre than how fiction could ever be. The seller says that this car benefitted of a rotisserie restoration and only then four… Read More Euro trash-hot-rod: 1964 Fiat 600D
This 1932 three windows is said to be and original hot-rod which survived to the last sixty years. And we believe that’s the truth otherwise we should never make an article as we can’t stand fake hot rods. Indeed the seller has published a lot of period photo to bear witness about it: since then… Read More Automotive archeology: 1932 Ford Three Windows Coupé
Yes, we like period hot-rods too. We like their ingenuity and their simplicity. So, we can’t stand billet aluminium, digital gauges or $20,000 paint jobs on these cars. This particular car is said to have a known history since it left the factory. The seller says also that the car is rock solid and completely… Read More This is traditional: 1932 Ford Tudor Hot Rod
