Unusual stuff: 1957 Lancia Appia Convertibile by Vignale

Ok, we imagine that at first glance you may look at this ad and think “What am I supposed to do with this wreck?” This question would make perfect sense if the car in question was an Appia Convertible belonging to the third series, this instead belongs to the second series and this means three… Read More Unusual stuff: 1957 Lancia Appia Convertibile by Vignale

Roman citizen: 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint

Sold new and aged in the same place, this could be the short story of this Giulietta Sprint. It is in fact a specimen which, although it is not rare in itself (in relative terms, of course) has the rarity of having been sold new in Rome in 1965, and has remained in the Italian… Read More Roman citizen: 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint

More than patina: 1956 Porsche 356A Coupé

“Patina” is a term that is too often overused: it is in fact used for a wide range of conditions, from the perfectly preserved and original car to the one that has rust holes. In the case of this Porsche 356 (chassis #57011) we are talking about patina but in reality there is a lot… Read More More than patina: 1956 Porsche 356A Coupé

Under the tarp: 1957 Porsche 356A Speedster

What can be the conditions of a car built 60 years ago and left 20 or 30 years outdoors, under a tarp? Not good, of course. Especially if the climate is that of Virginia, one of the wettest states in the United States, a climate that puts all classic cars to the test. Of course,… Read More Under the tarp: 1957 Porsche 356A Speedster

Last call: 1963 Porsche 356B T6 Cabriolet

By now, for those who want it, there are no longer many possibilities to get your hands on a Porsche 356 at a “human” price. When I sold my 356 T5 Cabriolet for $ 47,000 more than ten years ago, it took me six months and even had to accept a car as a partial… Read More Last call: 1963 Porsche 356B T6 Cabriolet

Baikal rust: 1971 BMW 2800 CS

If the restorers were superheroes, they would all have one common enemy: rust. And rust is unfortunately an enemy to be feared especially on BMW’s E9 series. In the particular case of this car, the damage caused by corrosion is evident at first glance, but on these cars the horror hides inside the front fenders… Read More Baikal rust: 1971 BMW 2800 CS

Tenant of the barn: 1957 BMW Isetta 300

Also in this case – unfortunately – we are faced with a project that ended only in the mind of those who thought it up. In reality we only see a disassembled car. That the car is disassembled is not a problem in itself, the problem arises when a project is abandoned for years and… Read More Tenant of the barn: 1957 BMW Isetta 300

Vegas green: 1969 Ford Mustang GT 390 Sportsroof

The originality of this specimen is not in question, but the state of its body is. In fact, this car still seems to have all the specifications and details of when it left the assembly line: in a photo published in the announcement there is also the detail of the towbar supplied by the factory.… Read More Vegas green: 1969 Ford Mustang GT 390 Sportsroof

Pasadena recluse: 1965 Jaguar E-Type O.T.S.

An icon needs no introduction and the Jaguar E-Type, particularly if a first series, is no exception. Many have been produced and many have survived, especially if we compare them to other sports cars of the same era, yet the quantity of examples still existing has not inflated their charm: the value of this model… Read More Pasadena recluse: 1965 Jaguar E-Type O.T.S.
