The seller says that this Flaminia Touring is, despite appearances, 100% complete and that it had only two owners from new. Unfortunately there are just two photos taken from the outside so we can’t realize how complete it is and, most of all, what kind of job is needed: of course it needs a full restoration… Read More Complete and light: 1962 Lancia Flaminia 2500 GT Coupé by Touring
The “Trasformabile” (the italian word uesd to say “cabriolet” back in the fifties) was one of the two version of the Siata Daina, a beautiful, scaled down Aurelia B20 produced from the 1950 to 1953 by Siata and designed and assembled by Farina coachworks. In the early fifities Italy was still recovering by the wounds… Read More Prototype, maybe: 1950 Siata Daina Trasformabile
The music genius had other meaning in his mind when he wrote this song so we hope he could forgive us for this kind of misuse of the title. But, since he wrote it, many things have changed for real and one of those, althoug not important at all for most people, is the value… Read More Sign o’ the times: 1961 Porsche 356B T5 Karmann Hardtop
The smiling face is, of course, the nose of this 1500S without headlights, front grill and bumper. And that’s because the car is in the early stage of a deep restoration. What is clear is that the restoration of this car wasn’t carried out by professionals but, probably, by the owner itself who tried to… Read More That smiling face/2: 1962 Fiat 1500S OSCA Cabriolet
We didn’t understand which Porsche it was until we read the description: surprised to see that this ’67 targa is an S version, the most powerful Porsche of the time. However, this ’67 has a lot of parts replaced with other coming from later cars (it often happened during the past 30 years, as most 911 have… Read More Hidden potential: 1967 Porsche 911S Targa
Actually when you’re going to buy a car completely disassembled and stripped to bare metal, you know that you’ll have a lot of work ahead of you but, at least, you’ll have no surprises from your purchase. That is the case of this early Giulietta Spider (chassis #1415.01109) which is said to have been bought… Read More No surprises: 1956 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider
For for the uninitiated, the seller of this car is mr. Dennis Collins, friend of Richard Rawlings who is actually the main character of Discovery Channel “Gas Monkey garage” reality series. And we guess that this Apollo GT has been discovered by Rawlings who has some scouts around the country who find cars for him.… Read More Gas Monkey link: 1967 Intermeccanica Apollo GT
That’s not easy to find a true barn find Coupé Deville in the (almost) same shape as when it left the factory, but sometimes it still happens and this blue ’59 proofs that. By the way we never saw this color combo on a ’59: we’ve far away to be Cadillac experts but we’ve seen hundreds… Read More Fifty years long sleep: 1959 Cadillac Coupé Deville
Six people can fit in this car which was designed to carry the large families of the sixties without spending the huge amount of money needed for a Giulietta Berlina or another equivalent car of that era. Of course 50 years ago people were both shorter (and generally thinner) than how they are nowadays, but… Read More Six people together: 1960 Fiat 600 Multipla
We didn’t expect to find a seller who doesn’t know exactly what he’se selling but, nonetheless, it still happens, and again with an Alfa. Indeed last year we published a Giulietta Veloce for sale as a “Normale”(and sold at the same price of a “normale”), while today the seller of this GTV (chassis #AR*252855) sells it… Read More Lack of knowledge: 1967 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT Veloce
