For collectors and simple enthusiasts of classic cars there are not many things more exciting than cars modified by small, and often unknown, manufacturers, even if they are not even manufacturers in the strict sense, but only enthusiasts who have wanted to build their own visions. In this case, confirming what has just been written,… Read More Stranger things: 1959 Volkswagen Typ 1 one-off
That’s not actually usual to find a car with such ourageous style in a paddock but actually Lancia built also a prototype racer based on this strange Zagato creation so, if you know some italian cars history, you won’t be astonished to see on of these around a track. This particular car (1 0f 25… Read More Outrageous racer: 1965 Lancia Flavia Sport by Zagato
We believed to have seen a lot of the classic car world but, needless to say, a lot doesn’t mean everything. What is strange here is that this 2600 sprint was born with a right hand drive: you may think that this is simply a car sold in one of the Commonwealth market and then… Read More Big six alien: 1966 Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint RHD
This car is speculated to be one of ten existing Coupé by Touring built with a right hand drive, so it’s very interesting for the Commonwealth collectors or Lancia enthusiasts. Of course there is a lot of work to do here: every part of the car suffers of years of corrosion and the complex chassis-body assembly… Read More The right side: 1963 Lancia Flaminia 2500 Coupé by Touring
We can’t find anything so wrong with this car, at least from what we can see from the photos, but the point is: who goes east to inspect the car? It’s a 1959 Giulia Spider which, as it can be seen, has wrong wheels but that’s not a problem: the car looks like a Giulia (1600 cc.) and… Read More Long way east: 1959 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider Veloce
It’s the first time (again!) that we see this car, although we know Glas company, at least for their products made during the sixties. However, we didn’t know this car so far and we must admit that it’s absolutely lovely, beginning from the kiwi green which is very appropriate for a new zealander car. Who… Read More Kiwi anyway: 1957 Glas Goggomobil Dart
The seller says that this Mistral is one of 28 RHD cars ever made; it has been sold new in England but it was imported in Germany years ago. Probably it was imported as LHD cars had few market so they were generally cheap and, indeed, this car seems still quite cheap. It is described… Read More Italian English in Germany: 1967 Maserati Mistral Coupé
Finally, a GTAm “evocazione” painted in a not-red color. Must say that this dark blue is striking mated with the gold GTAm replica wheels and with the tan interiors. The seller says that this car is loaded with many performance parts, including a rear limited slip differential, fast road cams, and fully adjustable suspensions. The… Read More The faster, the larger: 1969 Alfa Romeo 1750 GTAm “evocazione”
This ’64 SS has two oddities: the banana yellow paint and the right hand drive. Almost surely, the yellow paint was not a factory option but we have no sources to confirm that the lhd wasn’t an option as well. Only the Archivio Storico Alfa Romeo (Alfa Romeo Archive) can make clarity on this point.… Read More Yellow and RHD: 1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint Speciale
