If we find a rare classic car, it is very likely that it will be published by us: let alone a car produced in a single specimen. In this particular case, as has often happened, the manufacturer and coachbuilder have different nationalities: the first is Jaguar, a brand that needs no introduction, the second is… Read More One off cat: 1952 Jaguar XK 120 Roadster by Beutler
The problem with writing a review of cars like this is that often we don’t even know how to define the model to be included in the title: the only sure thing is that the chassis is that of a Kubelwagen. As many know, the Kubelwagen was a vehicle used by the German army during… Read More Something different: 1951 Volkswagen Kubelwagen “Bolide”
We have written several times, but we will never tire of thinking or reiterating it, that if there is a story that deserves to be told, that concerns the countless creations based on Fiat 1100 chassis. And we are not only talking about the 1100-103 frames but also those of the previous series, that is… Read More Former sedan: 1938 Fiat 508C Berlinetta by Geburth
It is Italian, it is convertible, it is very rare. Three excellent topics to report this very special Fiat which saw its birth a few months before the storm. Indeed, to be precise, “rare” is an understatement since, most likely, this is the only car of its kind. Obviously after 80 years and without adequate… Read More Less than two: 1939 Fiat 508 C Cabriolet by Viotti
Actually we did not know exactly how to call this car: we know that – as the seller says – under the skin is the frame and engine of a Henry J. but we don’t know much else. Technically speaking, we do not know the year of manufacture of the chassis, nor the year in… Read More Time traveler: 1950 Kaiser Frazer Henry J. “Custom”
This car is an example of the reason why Classic Virus was born: to identify those special cars, even unique, built by hand up to the period when television was still a luxury for the few. We are dealing with an extremely rare, if not unique, car: a Fiat 508 Balilla with a special Pininfarina… Read More Goggles included: 1932 Fiat 508 Balilla by Pininfarina
This Abarth 750 is a little different from others we have published here, not only for the appearance of the nose but also for the underlying technique and its history. The seller says that this car was sold new in the United States and there its history is unknown until 1969 when it was bought… Read More Red rascal: 1958 Abarth 750 Spyder by Allemano
I know what you are thinking: why change a Pantera GTS in this way? Well, this car is the first GTS built and has been modified by De Tomaso factory itself. Obviously we are reporting what the seller writes: this is the first Pantera GTS built (chassis #7427) and as proof of this the seller… Read More Number one: 1975 De Tomaso Pantera GTS
This very rare (unique, actually) small spider was built using a Gilco tubular frame and dressed by Zagato. You will not see many others like this around, that’s for sure. Indeed, this car belongs to the large family of special cars that were built to order by wealthy drivers who were planning to participate in… Read More One of one: 1951 Gilco 205 MM by Zagato
The seller of this curious car says that this barchetta has been found just out of Mosport Raceway, Canada, and looks like someone wanted to build his own dream racer. Of course during the fifties a lot of petrolheads built cars in their own garages, however few of them had good taste and sense for… Read More Past present: 1953 One-off “barchetta”
