We know well that, unlike other markets such as the American one, European cars, especially Italian, did not offer many paid options in the 1950s and 1960s, which is why we were interested in this Flaminia. The first reason for our interest is certainly the state: the dealer says that this car is a survivor,… Read More Loaded: 1963 Lancia Flaminia Coupé by Pinnfarina
We have published some Fiat 600s built by Viotti, both in Coupé and Granluce versions, but it is the first time that we have had a green one. Christophe, the owner of this beautiful car, reported the ad to us and we did not miss the opportunity to comment on it. The photos available to… Read More Cute green: 1956 Fiat 600 Coupé by Viotti
This rare Appia Sport is said to be available to the public for the first time after 40 years during which it was owned by only one person. This person is (or was, we did not understand) a producer known in the studio environment, Arthur Vitarelli, it seems that among his productions there were titles… Read More Producer’s car: 1963 Lancia Appia Sport by Zagato
It has a beautiful color and looks very, very well preserved: this is the brief identikit of this rare Audi. The fact that the car looks very well preserved is probably also due to the fact that the car – so the seller says – has passed from father to son and has therefore remained… Read More One family car: 1972 Audi 100S Coupé
“Beauty in things exists in the mind which contemplates them” (David Hume) In the panorama of classic car collecting there are many levels of rarity, beauty but, apart from the rarity which is measurable in numerical terms, beauty is very subjective. Yes, because beauty is often made up of several factors, although aesthetics is the… Read More Odd sedan: 1975 Citroën GS Pallas C-Matic
We do not know if this Alfa Romeo 2000 sedan has ever been restored, but the impression we get is that of an extraordinary survivor. The seller says in fact that the car is original and in fact from the point of view of the appearance, with the exception of the Alfa Romeo badge on… Read More Americana: 1961 Alfa Romeo 2000 Berlina
This Mustang looks like a car that has been for 50 under a turned on hair dryer, but that’s not necessarily a negative point. The seller says that he bought the car from its first owner who, according to the Marti Report, has a unique combination of colors and options: factory air conditioning (not working),… Read More Green over gold: 1967 Mustang 289 Fastback
We can say that there is no better way to start the year 2021 with a survivor, even though in this case it is a car. Car, we have said, but certainly not a trivial one: it is in fact an automotive icon of the twentieth century whose image has also been too inflated and… Read More The survivor: 1967 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 O.T.S.
Surely this car will have been amazed to see how the world has changed during the 38 years during which it has been locked in a Texas garage collecting dust. Unlike the surrounding world, however, she hasn’t changed much: a nice layer of dust still covers her but underneath there is still a healthy car,… Read More Lost in time: 1972 Dino 246 GT
All fans of classic cars like patina: if it develops on a black surface, it is even more fascinating. The surface we are talking about belongs to a Jaguar XK 140 model DHC: it is the more “civilized” spider version, less extreme than the OTS (the one with “low” doors, so to speak) but always… Read More Dark matter: 1955 Jaguar XK 140 DHC
