We have always wondered why most European cars were sold new in California, and perhaps one of the answers is that the morphology of the terrain is the one most similar to the Italian one in the rest of the USA. Consequently, a nimble little car, even one with not as much horsepower as a… Read More SWB project: 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider
Ok, we agree that maybe “completed” is an understatement, however, technically, the car is there. From what we understand, it is a Fiberfab Aztec built on a platform – for a change – Volkswagen Type 1 (better known as Beetle). This was probably once a running car, since the wheels, headlights and drivetrain are already… Read More To be completed: 1970 Fiberab Aztec
It has been resting for many years, but hasn’t lost its charm yet, maybe it’s time someone put it back on the road. This Giulietta Sprint Veloce has belonged to the same owner for 20 years but is said to have been taken off the road in 1977: on the one hand this is negative… Read More Sleeping bialbero: 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Veloce
If, looking at this Swedish car, you have the impression of recognizing the Italian style of the time, you are not wrong. The designer of this small Swedish berlinetta is in fact Sergio Coggiola, a little-known car designer who, however, had important experiences such as the one at Ghia. Either way, the Sonnett IIII oozes… Read More Uncle’s car: 1973 Saab Sonnett III
There are still some around in unrestored condition, but here comes the dilemma: spend the money on the restoration or buy a restored one? Between the two alternatives, at the end of the day, there is no difference. Differently from a few years ago, when original spare parts could be found (much better than that… Read More Rough steel: 1958 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce
This 356A is very down in the dumps, it will take a lot of work to restore it to acceptable looks and function, yet we believe it is someone’s dream. The reason is obvious: in fact this is a blank sheet from which you can start for any type of creation. In fact, since the… Read More Carbon look: 1957 Porsche 356 A Coupé
We never expected to find a project of this type in the middle of the Appalachian Mountains, yet some enthusiasts have tried it in the middle of the forest. Not only passionate, but also skilled: it is clear that this home-made project has been carried out by someone who knows how to handle a hammer,… Read More Rough diamond: 1964 Ferrari 250 GTO replica project
This 2000 Spider has definitely seen better days, but it’s still better than many “projects” seen lately. In fact, we have seen models like this, or 2600s, so rotten that we don’t understand how they are still all in one piece, for sale at prices which, although apparently low, would have led the owner to… Read More Ti-red: 1959 Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider by Touring
It’s amazing how, despite the cleanup of all the barns and backyards done in the last 15 years, cars like this still pop out. This Giulietta Spider Veloce swb (chassis AR1495F.09918), certainly the most coveted of the series together with its bigger sister Giulia, was in fact taken off the road in 1969 and bought… Read More Red project: 1958 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce
The idea of the Apollo was born from the desire of Milt Brown, a young Californian engineer, to create an American response to the European GTs such as the Ferrari berlinettas and the Aston Martin. In his search for a coachbuilder, in 1960 he met Frank Reisner, a Hungarian transplanted to America who had founded… Read More Fallen God: 1963 Apollo 5000 GT
