A tip from personal experience: if you intend to buy a classic car to be restored, never buy rotten scrap just to save on the purchase price: at the end of the restoration you will regret it bitterly. You will regret it for three reasons: the first is about the money you will spend; in… Read More Dry white: 1962 Porsche 356B T6 Coupé
Certainly there is still a long way to go, before returning to being usable, for this rare Alfa Romeo, but also in rather serious conditions. It is a typical example of a car abandoned for decades (in our opinion no less than three) in bad weather and later, probably consequently to the rise in prices,… Read More Long way to go: 1969 Alfa Romeo GT Junior by Zagato
Of the many Giulietta Spiders we published, very few, indeed probably none (at least as far as we can remember) were black. And when we say black we mean born that way, certainly not repainted in the course of her life. Black is a color that according to me gives a lot to this car:… Read More Black shade: 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce
It’s Touring, but it’s not Superleggera. Indeed, this GT was probably a few tens of kilos heavier than the coupe from which it was derived. As already mentioned other times, this version had been entrusted to Touring for the conversion to Cabriolet and the consequent reinforcement of the body to be done professionally and with… Read More Open top: 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia GTC by Touring
A v8 under the hood, beautiful lines and excellent build quality of BMW (that of 60 years ago, we mean), this is the synthesis of the BMW 503. At the time it was a very expensive car and in fact it did not have a great commercial success: the seller says that only 416 were… Read More Four heads: 1957 BMW 503 Coupé
Four years ago we published an article about a similar car, but unlike the first this one looks much more complete and “refined”. However, it is very rare to see for sale these kit cars produced in the 70s and, obviously, based on a Volkswagen Typ1 chassis (more commonly known as Beetle) which ensured maximum… Read More Old future: 1961 Sportsland Concept 1
This is the small sister of the 300SL: the 190SL was in fact built in the image and likeness of its older sister but with a price tag that can still be reached by few, but certainly more than those who could afford a 300SL, both coupe and spider. And we must also say that… Read More Little sister: 1961 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL
Browsing through the ads on the net, it is not that difficult to come across an Abarth 750 from the 1950s or 1960s, however this is not the case with this particular car. This is indeed the Berlinetta version built by Allemano, characterized by a more slender line and above all by the particular shape… Read More Rare bird: 1960 Abarth 750 Berlinetta by Allemano
There are fewer and fewer of these cars, and we don’t mean the model so much as the chance of finding one to restore according to your own standards. But this raises another question: When is a restoration really worth doing? In fact, compared to a few years ago (and we tell you this by… Read More Less and less: 1964 Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint
The bull is not only a symbol of Lamborghini, but also of a factory like Intermeccanica which saw its birth in Turin, the city – in fact – whose symbol is the bull. This Intermeccanica Italia was born red (at least so the seller says) and equipped by the factory with air conditioning and electric… Read More Yellow bull: 1969 Intermeccanica Italia
