Odd seats: 1959 Abarth 750 GT by Zagato

Whoever is looking for one of these cars in order to restore them, has for sure noticed that the most common issue on these cars is that they are not equipped anymore with the original engine. And often the problem is not only related to the original engine, but also that the car is not… Read More Odd seats: 1959 Abarth 750 GT by Zagato

Sunburnt: 1962 Fiat 1500 OSCA Coupé by Pininfarina

Actually we don’t know if this car was produced in 1962 as the seller didn’t mention its build year, nor if this car has been actually under the sun for many years: the cracked leather of the seats tell us so. The car is covered with dust so ot could also have been stored in a… Read More Sunburnt: 1962 Fiat 1500 OSCA Coupé by Pininfarina

Team car: 1961 Maserati 3500 GT by Touring

This car is said to have been a witness of many battles fought around the tracks all over Europe during the fist half of the sixties.

Dull white: 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale

We didn’t expect to spot a Sprint Speciale not yet restored, but sometimes there are more cars around than how you could imagine. Actually this is a Giulietta SS (chassis AR120*00693) which clearly hasn’t been ever restored or, at least, never painted: the white is almost flattened and the car has also some rust on… Read More Dull white: 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale

Unrestored and matching numbers: 1961 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL

The seller of this 190 SL has spent few words to describe the car but maybe we understand why: there’s no much to talk about this car. And that’s why this 190 SL is nothing more and nothing less of a barn find: it has probably been washed with steam or hi-pressure water but it… Read More Unrestored and matching numbers: 1961 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL

Puzzling puzzle: 1957 Aston Martin DB2/4

This is not the first time we find a DB2/4 for sale in need of a total restoration, however it’s the first time that we see one for sale spread around a garage. That is because someone has begun to disassemble the car in order to perform a serious restoration job on this blue chip… Read More Puzzling puzzle: 1957 Aston Martin DB2/4

No shenanigans: 1965 Porsche 356 C Cabrio

There is a very active bidding for this survivor 356 C Cabrio (chassis #161129) which actually should be a full matching number car, well preserved during the last 50 years. Full matching numbers car not because so says the Kardex but because the car has a full pack of documentation since it was new, among… Read More No shenanigans: 1965 Porsche 356 C Cabrio

Roasted but complete: 1967 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT Veloce

This GTV comes from San Diego, CA, where it has been for sure parked under the sun for many years: the result is a roasted car which, however, is complete at the same time. This car should have been born painted in a beautiful Dark Pine Green which is almost gone now: we can spot… Read More Roasted but complete: 1967 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT Veloce

Rare cruiser: 1968 OSI 20M TS

It’s absolutely unusual to see an OSI 20M TS in the U.S: indeeed this car, built in Turin, Italy, by Officine Stampaggi Industriali (hence “OSI) is pretty rare even in Europe. This car is said to be the 175th specimen built and it need a lot of work: it is sleeping since many years in… Read More Rare cruiser: 1968 OSI 20M TS

Unusual year: 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce

1957 is an unusual year for a Giuietta Spider Veloce (chassis #1495F.07111) as it is said that only an handful (maybe 32) of these cars were built in that year: to be honest, we are not sure of that number but sure thing is that you barely see one for sale. So, this is a rare opportunity to… Read More Unusual year: 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce
