Made in France: 1964 Facel-Vega Facellia

This car was designed and produced in order to face the competition against italian and british sports cars of the era, but unfortunately it lost the battle. That was probably due to the fact that, despite its nice engine, a 1600 c.c. DOHC inline four unit, the Facellia was heavier than its competitor and more oriented to… Read More Made in France: 1964 Facel-Vega Facellia

Fixed white: 1963 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider

This white Giulia Spider is stationary since so many years that now its brakes are stuck: if you want this car then begin to conceive how to solve this problem. At least the seller says that the brakes have this problem which is not the only one: the engine too doesn’t turn but, in the… Read More Fixed white: 1963 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider

Solid ivory: 1963 Lancia Flaminia GT Coupé by Touring

This car seems covered by a layer of expoxy primer, otherwise that color perfectly matches the “Avorio Santa Anita” (a special shade of Ivory) often used by Touring and Zagato during the sixties. Actually the original color of this car should be grey (as the dashboard is) but in this case the color in itself… Read More Solid ivory: 1963 Lancia Flaminia GT Coupé by Touring

Almost surivor: 1967 Porsche 911S

The seller says that this rare 1967 911 S is a survivor: we believe that in this case the term “survivor” has been a little bit stretched. Actually it’s for sure a rare car as the 1967 is the first year for the S model which, in this configuration, produced 160 hp which are enough on… Read More Almost surivor: 1967 Porsche 911S

Austrian sleeper: 1956 Alfa Romeo 1900 Berlina

Of course this is a car which can be found in good numbers in its own native country, but this is one of the very few delivered new in Austria. And we must say that, considering the typical weather of Austria, this car has been preserved really well: indeed it’s not only about the cold… Read More Austrian sleeper: 1956 Alfa Romeo 1900 Berlina

Cheap and chic/2: 1964 Renault Caravelle

Actually you can imagine that a project under 1K is a joke or, at least, a parts car or a rust bucket but this case seems pretty different.  It’s a 1964 Renault Caravelle which is said to be off the road and stored since the mid ‘70s but it’s owned by the actual seller since… Read More Cheap and chic/2: 1964 Renault Caravelle

Patina has a face: 1951 Fiat 1400 Coupé by Frua

Yes, sometimes patina has a face which most classic cars enthusiasts know well, on this car it has the colors and the shades of this ultra rare aluminium coachbuilt Fiat. The three decades in the first half of the last century, the 30s, 40s and 50s were the golden age of coachbuilders who built a lot… Read More Patina has a face: 1951 Fiat 1400 Coupé by Frua

Rough diamond: 1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint

Actually it’s still possible to find project like this at an acceptable asking price; there is money to spend on it for sure but the starting point is good. The seller says that this is a nice project as the body is basically rust and accident free; the metal work is done and the body has been… Read More Rough diamond: 1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint

Almost Daytona: 1960 Caribee TR-4

This is the very first time we see this kit car about which we don’t know anything but that it’s based on Triumph TR-4 Engine and chassis.  But, apart from its platform which is for sure very reliable and easy to fix like every british car of the time, what is astonishing about this car… Read More Almost Daytona: 1960 Caribee TR-4

Veloce heart: 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider

For sure some holes all around an unrestored Giulietta Spider are not a news as, with the exception of an handful of these cars, a Giulietta could rust even if stored life-long in an enclosed space. Of course when you see the first photo of a car like this the first thing which comes to mind… Read More Veloce heart: 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider
