The poor Lancia looks broken, the Alfa is still pretty though.

that's a he-ll of a barn find, must of been a serial collector, I recognise all of the kit cars as well from my era, some look restorable others not so much

 

[sionie1]

I’ve always wondered how you’d go about registering them with limited or no documents.. Serial collector but unfortunately not a serial restorer

635 CSI manual, HARTGE 750il, Tipo Sedicivalvole and the 155 wide body all appeal...

I used to have a Nova kitcar in the 90's.

I remember one in Canonball Run 2.

The 155 is a Skinny.

They were built in small numbers, and are highly sought after, (not by me lol,) I'm sure the forces used some.

originality and patina makes them more valuable

apart from the algae that actually looks like it could be in good nick, i quite like it, light restoration perhaps, some one will pay good money for that, i think these were professional conversion and not cheap ones at that either

We had them in the RAF as fire tenders. 6x4, I think they had the rover V8 in them, plenty quick

I remember one in Canonball Run 2.

And there was one in Condorman.... being chased by baddies in 935 Porsches

Other than the very rare lifetime collectors you see on US cable TV car shows, I've never seen anything like this.
There are relatively few cars here that aren't worth saving. Either for a future profit and for driving enjoyment meantime, or because of their rarity. Might watch the auction for a bit, if its streamed.

I’ve seen 4 or 5 I’d particularly like.. but the voice of reason pipes up.
