Actually this Samba has its rear axle disassembled and stored inside the cabin: quite a problem when it will come the time to load it on the truck. These are very cute bus but lately they’ve reached unbelievable quotations: weren’t they car for the common people? We wonder how many former hippies can’t believe to… Read More Two wheeled: 1965 Vokswagen Bus T1 “Samba”
What I’ve never understood it’s how come I always find the car of my dreams in the wrong moment. This car is advertised as a “simple” BMW 2002, but when you read the description you spot the magic word: “Turbo”. That’s the reason why you see the wide fenders and the Scheel sport seats. Of… Read More Incomplete description: 1974 BMW 2002 Turbo
It’s getting so hard to see a car like this, still needing of a restoration, that when we found it that’s a nice day.

Tjis “typical” barn find is one of the last Glas produced: we believed that since late ’66 they were badged as BMW but this… Read More Hope green: 1967 Glas 1700 GT
You know…when the classic cars market is yet overinflated, what else to do? Just inflate it a little bit more! What we have here is a bunch of Ferrari 250 in need of a total restoration and, moreover, they are not even complete: particularly the 250 spider is basically a body and a chassis, with some… Read More Many millions: Ferrari 250 stash
Just when we think that top cars barn finds are finished, here it is another one popped out from a garage in UK. It’s an Aston Martin DB2/4 which ran for only 12 years after it was bought new in UK, then it was put in storage and it never saw the light again until… Read More Do not touch: 1955 Aston Martin DB2/4
This Karmann Ghia is one of the few equipped with the vacuum-operated clutch system, called “Autostick”. Unfortunately this car needs much more than a clutch rebuild to run again. The seller says that it’s not a driveable car (you don’t need much imagination capabilities to understand that) and that it’s a California car so the exterior… Read More Autostick car: 1968 Karmann Ghia Convertible
How about installing the V16 posted yesterday into this car? Ok maybe it wouldn’t fit, but the meat here is not the candidate engine but the car itself. It is said to be a roller of S1A model which was never completed and resting almost since 50 years: the body is made of fiberglass so… Read More Tempting barchetta: 1952 Victress S1A Roadster
