This next car comes as a tip from Johnny Bouncewell who writes: Its killing me that this hasn’t sold yet. A running and driving (kinda) odd ball volvo needs a home when it costs a case of beer more than its scrap steel value. Find this 1969 Volvo 164 offered for $1000 in Rio Rancho, […]
Happy Columbus Day to all Italian-Americans out on the web, a day where we celebrate that crazy Genoese sailor who tried to find his way to the East (he probably wanted some JDM parts before you could overnight them from Japan…) by sailing West. It is also Canadian Thanksgiving (say what!?) but we’ll save our Turkey & Poutine Cacciatore jokes for the next feature. Sorey a boot that. Anyway, this Italian machine will need to get a ride on the next Niña, Pinta, or Santa Maria to head West across the Atlantic because it is located in The Netherlands, but Find this 1995 Alfa Romeo 164 Diesel offered for $3,499 buy-it-now or make-offer located in Ried, Netherlands via eBay.
This next car comes as a tip from Erik202 who writes: Without looking at this car in person it’s hard to say but my feeling is the seller is overly enthusiastic about it’s condition. That being said, there doesnt seem to be any rust and the interior looks to be in great shape minus one shift […]
The Alfa Romeo 164 was designed by Enrico Fumia (designer of Grifo D’Oro Bertone, Siata Spring, Ferrari F90 & Lancia Ypsilon) when he worked at design house Pininfarina. The angular design was part of the Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Lancia and Saab cooperative agreement to develop the Type Four platform, which produced the Lancia Thema, Saab […]
Is it a good sign or a bad sign when someone sells his entire fleet of cars? On the one hand you get a ton of spare parts to keep the “good” car running…but on the other hand…you NEED a ton of spare parts cars to keep the “good” one running….sheesh. It is also an […]
Getting old is a bitch and having too many needy Alfa Romeo’s can put a real damper on one’s golden years. Today’s seller has a trio of Alfa’s that are all interdependent on one another to make one decent ride. The 3.0 Milano Verde is the most valuable car of the of the bunch and […]
Two thousand pages of Uncle Sam’s greenbacked promissory notes doesn’t buy much in a car these days. Just about anything that passes your local inspection requirements and can be driven home is worth more than $2k…but what if I said you could get a future classic for $2k that comes from Italy and has a […]
The name Volvo comes from the latin Volvere which means “I roll“, so it is not without some degree of irony that the next seller calls his Volvo a “Swedish Rolls”. And here I thought a Swedish Roll was a freshly baked Kardemummabullar. Find this 1975 Volvo 164E offered for $3,200 in St Paul, MN via […]
Nineteen Ninety-four was a good year for cars. You could get a Buick Roadmaster Estate with the LT1 V8, or a Mk IV Supra with the 2JZ-GTE, or an NA MX-5 Miata with the bigger 1.8 liter BP-ZE inline-4 — but for some unknown reason I find myself inexplicably drawn to this next Alfa like […]
Volvo’s 164 was the long luxurious take on their venerable brick formula – they took the 144 sedan, extended the wheelbase forward of the firewall to fit a few more cylinders, and added a stately Rolls Royce-esque front styling treatment to match the upmarket engine. It may not have the panache (or power) of an […]
