It’s an Alfa Romeo, it’s rare, it’s convertible, it’s a barn find: each of these four elements, taken alone, is worthy of consideration, let alone if taken all together. As for the history of this car, we literally report the seller’s description which is detailed and clarifying: “The first recorded owner of this Pinin Farina… Read More Three nations army: 1952 Alfa Romeo 1900C Cabriolet by Pininfarina
It is not the first time that you will hear us say that this car is undervalued, but this is actually an advantage, certainly not a defect. This is because it is a car with very beautiful lines, advanced from a mechanical point of view (no less than a contemporary Giulietta Sprint, indeed, perhaps more… Read More Little red coupé: 1964 Fiat 1500S OSCA Coupé by Pininfarina
After the Second World War, Europe was in pieces and had started to lick its wounds, yet at the same time there were people who commissioned cars like these. After all, it is not a novelty that rich people are certainly not suffering from the crises, however it is also true that if it were… Read More Post war glory: 1946 Lancia Aprilia Cabriolet by Pininfarina
One of the best children of the Italian-American collaboration was certainly the Nash Healey, especially in the roadster version. As you can imagine, this is also a rare model as around 150 have been built (although we know how difficult it is to know the exact numbers, especially for smaller manufacturers), and far fewer… Read More Triple black: 1952 Nash-Healey Roadster by Pininfarina
The Peugeot 403 are rare in the USA: the Cabriolet version, produced in a total not exceeding 2,500 secimens, is basically nowhere to be found. This very elegant two-door and four-seat convertible designed by Pininfarina was the top of the Peugeot range between the late 50s and early 60s, and it is certainly among the… Read More Florida bronze: 1960 Peugeot 403 Cabriolet by Pininfarina
A couple of years ago we published a Fiat 1200 built by Pininfarina that we had never seen before, despite our good knowledge of small Fiat-based coupes built in the 50s and 60s. We then published another identical but in better condition, so we didn’t think we would see another one on sale for a… Read More Streamlined: 1958 Fiat 1200 Coupé by Pininfarina
In reality we did not understand very well from these photos the exact color of the car: it would seem a cross between green and blue, often called “oil green”. However it is called, the substance is that it is a very beautiful shade, especially when it is flanked by interiors and a soft top like… Read More Vert parisien: 1960 Peugeot 403 Cabriolet by Pininfarina
Also the Lancia Flaminia Coupé, the “poor” sister of the Touring version, has recently acquired more dignity in the eyes of collectors and enthusiasts. In fact, despite not having the slender line and the aluminum bodywork of the sister produced in Milan, it is a magnificent example of an elegant Italian coupé, with some… Read More Green car: 1961 Lancia Flaminia Coupé by Pininfarina
Let’s face it, for all classic car enthusiasts, seeing a car parked in a garage and partially buried by unusual household items is now a cliché. However the fact that it is a cliché does not diminish its charm, as in the case of this Simca 8 Sport Coupé which was evidently parked many years… Read More Partially buried: 1951 Simca 8 Sport Coupé by Facel
In that period between the twenties and the sixties there was an area, bounded on the west by Turin and on the east by Milan, within which the magic of cars happened. This Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 “very” special is the testimony of that magic and, if you are still wary, look in Google for… Read More Design daughter: 1952 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Sport by Pininfarina
