1971 DeTomaso Pantera: Barn Fresh

Here’s an exciting find, a 1971 Pantera with only 18,000 miles! This is one of those poster cars, found hanging on the walls of many future gear-heads. This was the first year of the Pantera, replacing the Mangusta. The… more»

Pan Am Racer: 1961 Innocenti Spyder

The simple fact that this car is an Innocenti make it special, but this one has also lived an exciting life. International travels and racing exploits litter its past. It was originally sold in France and the owner took it with them when… more»

Jeff in the Junkyard: From MA to MD

As we continue our weekly series of junkyard finds (you can find the previous two entries here and here), I’m being a bit lazy this week and combining some remaining finds from the yard that yielded my prized dashboard… more»

Deceptively Beautiful: 1967 Fiat Ghia 1500GT

The seller of this 1967 Fiat Ghia 1500GT only lets us see glimpses of the car in their auction listing. Even the description is short on words, so it’s hard to know exactly what’s going on here. The $10,500 asking… more»

1968 Intermeccanica Italia Coupe: Flamed Out

This 1968 Intermeccanica Italia listed here on eBay for the heady price of $44,950 may be rare, but in reality, it’s actually quite well done. An engine fire took this rare sports car off the road early in life, preventing… more»

1969 Alfa Romeo Duetto: Dreamers Only?

The seller of this 1969 Alfa Romeo Duetto, which can be found here on craigslist for $10,000, calls it a “dream  car.” I’m not sure whether it’s only in his dreams that he’ll see $10K for something this rough, or… more»

1961 Fiat 1200 Spider: Rust Free Italian

I have a weak spot for Fiat Spiders, especially earlier ones. I’m not sure if it’s the styling or the overall Italian experience, but I just love these machines. This 1200 has that wonderful wide open grille and sleek lines… more»

1985 Maserati Quattroporte: B.Y.O.E.

It’s not often you find the words “Maserati” and “hot rod” in the same eBay listing title! But in looking over this engine-less 1985 Maserati Quattroporte sedan here on eBay with a starting bid of $2,500, one can’t help… more»

Not An MG: 1970 Siata Spring

No, it’s not an MG. It’s actually a Siata with a Fiat 850 rear-engine platform and drivetrain.  These Siatas have somewhat of a cult following despite few being on the road. This one is located in Laveen, Arizona and… more»

1968 Lancia Fulvia GT: Drool-Worthy!

I think I’ve died and gone to oddball Italian car heaven! The seller of this beautiful Lancia Fulvia is obviously a connoisseur of fine Italian cars. Seeing a Lancia on our shores is a relatively rare occurrence, so when… more»

1971 Lancia Fulvia 1.3S: Rev-Happy Italian

Italian cars have always been a fascination of mine, but I’ve never come close to owning one. There’s something about them that my old BMWs don’t possess – Alfas and Lancias especially, as they just tend to ooze charisma… more»

Exotic Italian-German Ford: 1967 OSI 20 TM

If you’re like me, you don’t know much about this one—but it sure is pretty! Apparently Ghia split off OSI as a company to build short runs of special cars. This particular sleek coupe is one of around 2,200… more»

Anglo-Italian Hybrid: 1965 Innocenti Spyder

I’ve seen one of these in person and they are really beautiful. This one looks a little awkward because it’s sitting up quite high with the drivetrain out, and the red-painted late MG Midget wheels aren’t helping either. The little… more»

1969 Laverda American Eagle: Thanks Jack!

In the spirit of featuring the occasional motorcycle barn find, this 1969 Laverda American Eagle found here on eBay caught my attention. These Italian-made bikes have an interesting story, especially considering they rose to prominence for their racing abilities… more»

Build Your Own Ferrari

You may have heard the story about how a lucky guy named Tom Shaughnessy purchased a Devin on eBay only to discover that a 1952 Ferrari 340 America Spider chassis was hiding under the fiberglass body. Well, that may… more»
