For the umpteenth time we are faced with a car that is very rarely sold, and is also unknown to most. This car was actually an idea born from Opel which, in a very similar version, presented it at the 1969 Frankfurt Motor Show under the name “Style CD”: the prototype met with great success… Read More Doppelgänger: 1975 Bitter Diplomat CD
The intent of many car builders during the 60s and 70s was to build beautiful, powerful but not overly expensive cars, and there was only one way to achieve this. In fact, the solution consisted of coupling a European body, generally more suited to a sports car, to an American engine that, although not technically… Read More Protein cure: 1964 Sunbeam Tiger
Ethan, the seller of this car, told us about the ad on eBay and, being this a Maserati Quattroporte, we could not exempt ourselves from publishing it. To be precise it is a 1967 Quattroporte first series, equipped with the famous V8 with 4.2 liter displacement and four Weber two throat carburetors which, unfortunately, are… Read More Black tie: 1967 Maserati Quattroporte
This is one of the rarest BMWs ever made: it is a 3200 CS produced in just over 600 examples of which few survive today. The reason for the poor commercial success of this car was certainly not due to its aesthetic: keep in mind that this is a car designed by Bertone in 1963,… Read More Hofmeister kink: 1963 BMW 3200 CS by Bertone
Porsche enthusiasts are the most intransigent in terms of changes made to 911 so, clearly, the idea of replacing the original engine with an American V8 would give them goosebumps. Yet there is someone who, in terms of modifications, does not stop at nothing: it is the case of the owner of this 1972 911… Read More Sacrilege: 1972 Porsche 911 V8
This Aston Martin DBS is one of the few cars produced with the right hand drive (the seller claims that only 181 were produced with this configuration), has an uncommon color for an Aston and also another peculiarity. The engine is in fact a V8 but not produced in England but in the US: it… Read More Transplanted: 1969 Aston Martin DBS
Back at the end of the sixties, there were very few options to ride fast and confrortable in a four seater car: one of those was for sure the Maserati Mexico. Expensive to buy and to maintain (other than to feed), it was powered by the most american of italian engines: a big twin cam… Read More Highway mothership: 1969 Maserati Mexico
This big coupé was the swan song of Glas, even though ths particular model was built when Glas was already been overtaken by BMW, indeed this has a 3,000 c.c. engine instead of the Glas 2,600 c.c. unit. This car indeed wears the BMW badge on the nose but unfortunately there are much more things… Read More Almost complete: 1967 BMW-Glas V8 3000
This kind of car is not the cup of tea of euro classic cars nuts, with the exception of the Northern Europe, but nowadays it’s really hard to find cars like this one. That’s because this is a real relic of the hot rod era as it is as original (we know that’s a bit… Read More Real thing: 1932 Ford B Roadster Drag Car
The Sunbeam Tiger is one of those cars that merge the best of both sides of the pond: a typical british roadster style with american muscle. The basis of this car was of course the Sunbeam Alpine in which it was transplanted, thanks to the collaboration of Carroll Shelby, a 4261 c.c. (260 c.i.) Ford… Read More Blue cat: 1966 Sunbeam Tiger
