Although we have published other Simca 8s in the past, none of them was in the conditions of this convertible that looks like a real time capsule. The seller says that this car has been brought in the US when his service was over very common in those years: That’s not the first time we… Read More Flash inside: Simca 8 Cabriolet by Pininfarina
During the 50s and 60s, about 50% of Italian automobile production was destined for export, and this Flaminia Coupè testifies it since it is located in Puerto Rico. This car was probably painted in Blu Lancia, the flagship color of the factory since the Lancia was the only one to produce this color as it… Read More Blue away: 1961 Lancia Flaminia Coupé by Pininfarina
It is not the first time that we publish a Peugeot 403 Cabriolet and let’s hope that it is not even the last, especially when that’s about a barn find. In fact, the seller claims that this cabriolet, built in little more than 2,000 specimens by Pininfarina, is a true barn find in the sense… Read More A restaurer: 1957 Peugeot 403 Cabriolet by Pininfarina
This car is not only the same model used by Lieutenant Columbo in the homonymous TV series, but it also seems to be painted in a similar color and in very similar conditions. It is a Peueot 403 Cabriolet, built from 1958 to 1960 by Pininfarina in little more than 2000 specimens, of which some… Read More Columbo’s favorite: 1958 Peugeot 403 Cabriolet by Pininfarina
This is one of the most expensive project ever seen and we actually wonder if it has sense even though is about an ultra rare and very early Maserati A6G Coupé with a body built by Pininfarina. In the same period in which this car was built, Maserati gave to Farina (whose founder was Giovanni… Read More 1 of 9: 1951 Maserati A6G 2000 Coupé by Pininfarina
In case you missed this year edition of the Mille Miglia, don’t worry: this is a car that hardly can be refused by their organisation: many joined the MM during the fifties and maybe this one was one of those. The car we have here has been fully restored: never judge a car trough a… Read More Next time: 1954 Fiat 1100 TV Coupé by Pininfarina
“Patina” is quite an abused noun, often used to tag cars that are actually wrecks: in this case such noun is appropriate as this car looks just like an “old” car. Indeed this is – or seems, at least – a car that hasn’t ever been restored, neither partially: the paint, by now faded, seems… Read More Grey patina: 1962 Lancia Flaminia Coupé 2.5 by Pininfarina
Yes indeed these cars once were abandoned everywhere, including fields, just like this one that has still its body only because it’s made of aluminium. The car is sold with a bill of sale only and it’s easy to understand why: nobody provides you with a title in a field: jokes apart this is a… Read More Field find: 1950 Simca 8 Sport Convertible
The seller of this – quite nice, we must say – Lancia Flaminia Berlina says that the car is in this shape because of a stuck restoration process and that it could be used also as a parts car. Of course we deeply disagree with him because the car looks actually good even though, of… Read More Even for parts: 1962 Lancia Flaminia Berlina by Pininfarina
