It is the second time we see a Fiat Pininfarina like this on sale and, definitely, we are amazed because we thought that after the one published here, we would not have seen another one on sale for many years to come. But there is nothing more beautiful than being amazed (in a positive sense)… Read More Swedish plate: 1958 Fiat 1200 Coupé by Pininfarina
If we exclude high-end cars. in the 60s the car models with a double overhead camshaft engine, intended for an “average” clientele, could be counted on the fingers of one hand. In Italy, in addition to the Alfa Romeo (of course) one could opt for another car, which in our opinion was no less fascinating… Read More The rival: 1961 Fiat 1500S OSCA Coupé by Pininfarina
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
