We were amazed to see a Duetto in silver: it was a factory color code (AR728), however it is rare to find one that was born in this color. And in fact, this specimen, according to the seller, was born in white. The seller also says the car has been repainted by the previous owner… Read More Silver streak: 1969 Alfa Romeo Duetto
The BMW E9 series is one of those that has had one of the biggest revaluations in the past decade, yet these are complex cars. Complex and expensive to repair, both as regards the bodywork and the engine and transmission: they were the supercars of the 70s and, in fact, they had a build quality… Read More Cheap and chic: 1973 BMW 3.0 CS
We always appreciate anyone who spends money and time to bring a classic car to a new life, but we must also point out things that do not convince us. All this, all the more so if the car in question is as rare as this Giulia Spider Veloce: do not be fooled by the… Read More The odd color: 1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider Veloce
It is certainly one of the most beautiful Pantera we have ever seen, for just two – but important – reasons. The first is obvious and concerns the color: we cannot remember the last time we saw a Pantera painted in silver; we have probably never seen one before and this is the first, and… Read More Wonderfully preserved: 1973 De Tomaso Pantera L
This might seem like a week deliberately dedicated to Alfa Romeo, but it depends only on the ads we happen to find and, of course, the condition of the car. However, we believe that many of you do not mind seeing a worthy representative of the Alfa of the 1960s: a Duetto 1750, a version… Read More Invest in silver: 1969 Alfa Romeo Duetto 1750
This Lancia Flavia Coupé was originally painted in Silver with “Baseball glove leather” interiors, as the seller says. Apart from the definition, that’s a nice color combo. It’s an italian delivered car (there’s still the original Lancia dealer window sticker on the rear glass) which, like many other classic italian cars, more or less cared… Read More No reserve: 1967 Lancia Flavia Coupé 1.8
The BMW e10 series, in this case represented by this silver 2002 Tii, was the german response to the sporty sedans built by Alfa Romeo: they didn’t have the charm of the cars built in Milano, and yet they were great two doors sedans. The engine of the Tii is a four inline fed by… Read More Needs nothing: 1974 BMW 2002 Tii
Personally I’m becoming a little bit tired of static shows which, too often, are just a runway for cars which, too often again, are shiny for sure but sometimes are not properly restored (that doesn’t mean they are restored badly, of course, but that they are restored more in order to amaze than respecting how… Read More Forget Villa d’Este: 2015 Vernasca Silver Flag
Once again, here is a photo report from this edition of the Vernasca Silver Flag, the historic evocation of the hillclimb race. As usual, no lawn here: every car is asked to growl and run uphill from Castell’Arquato to Vernasca: 8,5 km of bends. This year the Flag is dedicated to the genius of Vincenzo… Read More Vernasca Silver Flag 2014
This is one of the best classic car events all around the world, in our opinion. Actually this is the evocation of an historic hillclimb race hold from 1953 to 1972 through the road which goes from Castell’Arquato to Vernasca, near Piacenza (Italy). Differently from static and glamorous events like Pebble Beach or Villa d’este,… Read More Vernasca Silver Flag 2013
