Whilst the seller of this Appia Convertibile (2nd series, chassis #812.01.3810) is not sure about what shade of gray his car is painted of, we are pretty sure that this is a very nice project. That is because this car appears, first of all, very solid. I have a Vignale Convertibile in the same conditions… Read More Two shades of grey: 1960 Lancia Appia Convertibile by Vignale
Your classic car can be the queen of the show mostly for a couple of reasons: it’s the most valuable car of the bunch or it’s something you really can’t see not only every day, but sometimes in a whole life. That’s the case of this Lancia Flaminia from 1961 which, back then, was given a… Read More Lateral thinking/2: 1961 Lancia Flaminia hearse
This car seems covered by a layer of expoxy primer, otherwise that color perfectly matches the “Avorio Santa Anita” (a special shade of Ivory) often used by Touring and Zagato during the sixties. Actually the original color of this car should be grey (as the dashboard is) but in this case the color in itself… Read More Solid ivory: 1963 Lancia Flaminia GT Coupé by Touring
This Vignale coachbuilt Lancia has not the exotic look of the same car bodied by Pininfarina or of the convertible made by vignale as well, but still it’s a rare and classy coupé. 481 of these cars were made with the same care given to build cars much more expensive than this, and today very few… Read More Rare coachbuild: 1960 Lancia Appia Lusso by Vignale
Of course “sixer” is not related to the car condition (as far as we can see9 but to the V6 engine of this elegant Flaminia Coupé. Unfortunately the seller doesn’t specify if this was originally a 3b (three carburetors) car, but there are many possibilities that, being a 2nd series car, this is still a… Read More Silver sixer: 1963 Lancia Flaminia Coupé by pininfarina
Well, the presentation of this car is not good but at least the seller has said the truth about the conditions of this car. It’s an Aurelia B20 GT, probably a fifth series, which need a lot of patience and work, along with a good amount of money and time to spend on it. That’s quite… Read More Much rust, no papers: 1956 Lancia Aurelia B20 GT
This car has quite a design: I’ve known no one who could say “what a beautiful design”, and yet many are fascinated by this odd car. Indeed Zagato, differently from other coachbuilders like Bertone and Pininfarina, didn’t ever spot on the design for every cars he made: many are beautiful but other are simply “strange”. Of… Read More Unpredictable design: 1966 Lancia Flavia Sport by Zagato
This one owner, preserved Fulvia Coupé is simply something spectacular: it seems a true survivor in exceptional conditions. Indeed this is a one owner car which run for 80,000 kms so far: it looks completely original and still has the door panel wrapped with the factory cellophane. The seller has posted also a photo of… Read More Untouched: 1968 Lancia Fulvia Coupé 1.3 S Rallye
There is a big question here: is this car a true Zagato spider or just a cut car which is useless now? Indeed Zagato built just an handful of these cars and how it often happens for these coachbuild specials, it’s difficult to know the exact number of the specimen produced: to be honest, before… Read More Real or experiment: 1968 Lancia Fulvia Spider by Zagato
Aurelia’s B20 are not usual to spot in the U.S. but sometimes when you find them they reserve big surprises like the former MM car published few months ago and stored for many years in a barn in Oregon. This car clearly comes from UK (at least the plate says it) and it is said to… Read More Minor cosmetic only: 1957 Lancia Aurelia B20
