Here is another car that emerges from the darkness and we assume, given the details of some photos, that it comes from South America. Obviously we are not sure but certainly, in relation to this car, there is very little, as in the announcement there are no details relating to the origin, the chassis number… Read More From darkness/3: 1947 Cisitalia 202 Cabriolet by Vignale
As we have already mentioned in this post, the Doretti was built by Swallow Coachbuilding Company which, before this car, used to build small, economy cars: this was a true exception in their production but unfortunately it didn’t last long. This car is based on a tubular steel chassis, Triumph TR2 mechanical components and an aluminum… Read More Mixed body: 1955 Swallow Doretti
Another day, another spider, another Alfa Romeo. But this time it’s the bigger sister of the one released on Monday. It is in fact a 2000 Spider designed and built not at the Portello factory, but at the Touring body shop which, at the time of production of this model, was a 20-minute walk away.… Read More Matte silver: 1962 Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider by Touring
We have always wondered why most European cars were sold new in California, and perhaps one of the answers is that the morphology of the terrain is the one most similar to the Italian one in the rest of the USA. Consequently, a nimble little car, even one with not as much horsepower as a… Read More SWB project: 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider
It has been resting for many years, but hasn’t lost its charm yet, maybe it’s time someone put it back on the road. This Giulietta Sprint Veloce has belonged to the same owner for 20 years but is said to have been taken off the road in 1977: on the one hand this is negative… Read More Sleeping bialbero: 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Veloce
If, looking at this Swedish car, you have the impression of recognizing the Italian style of the time, you are not wrong. The designer of this small Swedish berlinetta is in fact Sergio Coggiola, a little-known car designer who, however, had important experiences such as the one at Ghia. Either way, the Sonnett IIII oozes… Read More Uncle’s car: 1973 Saab Sonnett III
This 356A is very down in the dumps, it will take a lot of work to restore it to acceptable looks and function, yet we believe it is someone’s dream. The reason is obvious: in fact this is a blank sheet from which you can start for any type of creation. In fact, since the… Read More Carbon look: 1957 Porsche 356 A Coupé
This 2000 Spider has definitely seen better days, but it’s still better than many “projects” seen lately. In fact, we have seen models like this, or 2600s, so rotten that we don’t understand how they are still all in one piece, for sale at prices which, although apparently low, would have led the owner to… Read More Ti-red: 1959 Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider by Touring
It’s amazing how, despite the cleanup of all the barns and backyards done in the last 15 years, cars like this still pop out. This Giulietta Spider Veloce swb (chassis AR1495F.09918), certainly the most coveted of the series together with its bigger sister Giulia, was in fact taken off the road in 1969 and bought… Read More Red project: 1958 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce
The idea of the Apollo was born from the desire of Milt Brown, a young Californian engineer, to create an American response to the European GTs such as the Ferrari berlinettas and the Aston Martin. In his search for a coachbuilder, in 1960 he met Frank Reisner, a Hungarian transplanted to America who had founded… Read More Fallen God: 1963 Apollo 5000 GT
