For the “Barn Finds” series here is a particular car: it is a Mustang like many others but unlike most others it is a Shelby GT 350. It has been found in the condition in which you see it sleeping in a storage room / garage / barn (you decide which is the most appropriate… Read More Bowie ticket: 1968 Mustang Shelby GT 350
Don’t be surprised to see that we have published this car: I have owned the same model and I know what I’m talking about. The S2 coupé, one of the rarest models of the 944 lineage (it is much easier to find the spider version of the same model for sale, although the number of… Read More Transaxle breed: 1991 Porsche 944 S2
In 1984, as a car enthusiast kid, my pantheon of supercars was obviously made up of Lamborghini Countach, Porsche 911 Turbo and Ferrari 288 GTO. However, just one step below, there was a sedan. The sedan in question was the Maserati Quattroporte, probably because of its elegant but muscular lines at the same time: even… Read More V8 living room: 1984 Maserati Quattroporte 4.9
Undisturbed actually seems to be the right word: this first series E-Type seems to have been completely forgotten for decades, luckily somewhere indoors. In fact, this car probably comes from some place with a non-dry climate: this is what the traces of moss on the trunk floor tell us. Certainly though, if it had been… Read More Undisturbed: 1962 Jaguar E-Type Coupé
It had not happened for a long time to find a Giulia 1600 in these conditions: it is the faded photograph of when it was parked for the last time, in 1984. The thing that immediately catches the eye of this car are its conditions of originality: apart from a few details inside the engine… Read More Time capsule: 1966 Alfa Romeo Giulia Super
It’s not that we forgot to put the year of the car in the title, the fact is that the seller didn’t write it. In fact, this Elite, perhaps the most beautiful Lotus ever produced, is a “Type 14”, produced from 1957 to 1963: we are not Lotus experts so we are unable to deduce,… Read More Needs cosmetics: Lotus Elite Type 14
It is nice to find rare, special or unique history cars for sale. The only problem (for 99% of enthusiasts), is that cars with these characteristics almost always have unattainable prices. Yet there are also many cars, secularly in the so-called “youngtimer” segment, which are very interesting and have affordable prices provided – be very… Read More Big bumpers: 1983 BMW 633 CSI
Do you like unrestored classic cars? Do you like them Italian? Do you like them rare? This car will satisfy all three requests. Actually this car is not uncommon: in fact it is extremely uncommon as it’s a Siata 300BC. We do not know how many specimens were built (nobody knows for sure, actually), but… Read More Old is gold: 1955 Siata 300 BC
“The Cobra in the Barn: Great Stories of Automotive Archeology” was a book published in 2005 by Tom Cotter, which met with moderate success among classic car enthusiasts: it would certainly have included this 300SL if it had been resurrected 15 years before. Seeing the photos of the ad surprised us: first of all because… Read More Vintage dust: 1960 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster
When, in the world of classic cars, it is said “it is original only once”, it is not just the fact that it left the factory and is no longer modified. That saying also means that, as people get to grips with it, some details – related to the finishing of one part or the… Read More HIR 993: 1962 Maserati 3500 GTi by Touring
