1958 Alfa Romeo Sprint Veloce. “Confortevole”I must admit to being a little baffled as to exactly what a confortevole is. My understanding is that they made 200 of them. The first 51 had the sliding windows of the Lightweights. The remaining 149 had regular glass windows. Lightweight? Not sure. This one has high compression pistons in it. Needs re..
One of 36 produced.In its relatively short life, the French firm of Facel produced approximately 2,900 cars, all of which were stylish, luxurious and fast. Hand built, they were, of course, necessarily very expensive – the Facel II was priced in Rolls-Royce territory – and were bought by the rich and famous seeking something exclusive and distincti..
The ex-works, Louis Rosier.Talbot-Lago introduced a sensational new 2.5-litre model at the 1955 Paris Salon - the T14 LS - an altogether superior sports car powered by a four-cylinder, twin-camshaft, overhead-valve engine.

Introduced in 1953, the 3rd (and subsequent series) cars were powered by a 2,451cc version of Lancia..
These charming little light commercials keep seeking us out and this is without doubt our best yet. So much cuter than the rival Morris, we know just what crowd pleasers they are from the attention that Josephine, our own example, gets wherever we take her. This one dates from 1959, so has the 948cc engine and the prettier early style scalloped doo..
This is the absolute top-of-the-line wagon available for 1958: the Chrysler New Yorker Town & Country 9-passenger wagon!! Although not yet confirmed, it was stated that only about 428 of the New Yorker Town & Country Wagons were made in 1958, making it one of the most rare luxury wagons ever offered. This particular wagon is rarer still a..
