Well yes, it seems that this is the Veloce version of a Giulietta type 750, although we don’t have much to deduce from, if not the seller’s description. The point is that this car seems to be equipped with a “normal” type engine, characterized by the classic intake manifold ending with a single Solex PAIA… Read More Single inside: 1959 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce
Let’s make it short: we’ve never seen a pick-up like this, we didn’t know it existed, we didn’t even know that BMW had produced this type of vehicle after the war. You never stop learning, right? In fact, the seller says that after World War II BMW produced “industrial” vehicles under the name EMW, but… Read More Working class: 1951 BMW 340 Pritschenwagen
We have already seen a similar car but in red: we do not know if it is another example or this one painted in a different color, the fact is that this shape is not new to us. Last week we talked about the “Sport” category: here is another representative of this category, this time… Read More Blue Barchetta: 1951 Fiat 1100E Sport
Anyone who has fully restored a classic car knows very well that an easy restoration does not exist, unless it is a car that already looks good and only needs general tuning and detailing. This is not, in fact, the case, indeed it takes many hours of work to bring this 356 back to the… Read More Drive the dolphin/2: 1960 Porsche 356b T5 Roadster
Since most of the Giulietta Spider 750s have been recovered (indeed, almost all of those that were not reduced to a pile of rusted sheet metal without an engine), it is very unlikely today to find a good 750 to restore. But unlikely does not mean impossible and in fact here is one that not… Read More Good start: 1958 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce
The name Vespa inevitably makes us think of the most famous scooter in the world, but as enthusiasts know well that it is not just that. Indeed, The Vespa 400 of this article is a rear-engined microcar, produced by ACMA in Fourchambault, France, from 1957 to 1961 to the designs of the Italian Piaggio company.… Read More Unplugged: 1959 ACMA Vespa 400
Owning a rare car also means taking on the burden of working with parts that are difficult to find, as in the case of this Viotti. Actually, from the mechanical point of view, this car does not require a lot of effort since the chassis, engine, brakes, suspension are those of a Fiat 1200, produced… Read More The quest for parts: 1958 Fiat 1200 Granluce by Viotti
There is certainly not a long description of this car by its current owner, probably a man of few words. Too bad because this little spider is a fairly rare car, in fact it is a model already published by us on other occasions but often the car was in better condition than this: it… Read More No brakes: 1964 OSI 1200 Spider
For the “Barn Finds” series here is a particular car: it is a Mustang like many others but unlike most others it is a Shelby GT 350. It has been found in the condition in which you see it sleeping in a storage room / garage / barn (you decide which is the most appropriate… Read More Bowie ticket: 1968 Mustang Shelby GT 350
We use the words spoken by Mugatu, the crazy designer, character from the film Zoolander, to describe a phenomenon that affects not only the world of classic cars, but the world of collecting in general. Long story short: one day owning a certain object, be it a car, a painting, a watch, a porcelain sign,… Read More So hot right now: 1968 Ford Bronco
