1954 was the only year of production of this strange roadster, built in fiberglass by Kaiser Motors and equipped with a six-cylinder Ford engine. In 1952 Henry J. Kaiser, the founder of the company of the same name, had decided to counter the invasion of European sports cars with an American product (the Corvette, the… Read More Plastic Fantastic: 1954 Kaiser Darrin 161
This Porsche 911 (chassis # 300827) belongs to the first series, called “901” by the brand experts because the latter is the name that Porsche had decided to assign, until Peugeot reminded Porsche that the names composed of three numbers with a central zero was their trade mark. We would not have expected to find… Read More Alabama 901: 1965 Porsche 911
This 1952 Porsche 356 is certainly in worse condition than the other two pre-a published in the last two weeks, yet it is still in one piece and also quite complete. The state of the body is evident to everyone, but in reality the only real problem is the back of the car has suffered… Read More Transporter inside: 1952 Porsche 356 Coupé
Here is a rare find, not only because very few Siata Daina were produced, but also because we thought it was very unlikely to find one yet to be restored and, for a change, it is red. The last one we found for sal was in a state similar to this, but it was a… Read More Scaled B20: 1953 Siata Daina Coupé
This 356 T5 (you recognize it from the pointed front bonnet and the absence of the external filler nozzle) was born with a very nice color, Royal Blue, now faded. However, this specimen remained as mother Porsche did it, of course affected by the wounds of time that have left its scars here and… Read More Faded royal: 1961 Porsche 356B T5 S Cabriolet
In the past we have published articles on the Sabra Roadster because they were the only ones we found on sale: this time it is a coupe, or rather, two coupes. These two Sabra are not only the same model but both are red and both have to be completely restored: actually that’s not a… Read More Autumn stash: Two 1964 Sabra GT Coupé
Ok, we are not suddenly set with the Maserati Mistral, it’s just that everyone seems to be selling them at the same time and our job is to report them, at least the most interesting ones. This Mistral 4.0 is something between a project and a driver: indeed the engine does not start but at… Read More Cordoba red: 1968 Maserati Mistral 4.0
What we have here is a Maserati Mistral – with a four liter engine – disassembled years ago to be modified: fortunately for the car, the project to modify it has failed. A substantial part of the project concerned in fact the replacement of its original engine (taken apart 30 years ago) with an American… Read More Rest in pieces/2: 1967 Maserati Mistral 4.0
After a few weeks we return to Argentina to find a very rare car: it was designed and built by Louis Varela and equipped with a Renault engine, transmission and suspension. Being a small producer, Varela appropriately decided that his cars should have a fiberglass bodywork to contain production costs and, at the same time,… Read More Evolution of the species: 1970 Varela Andino GT
This seems like the perfect project: an apparently healthy 356 A, never damaged and equipped with the original engine. You can not ask for much more for a restoration project. In addition to having the original engine, it seems that this 356 also has the doors, the front and rear hood on which are shown… Read More Ready for the job: 1958 Posche 356 A T2 Coupé
