We are siblings growing up surrounded by beautiful classic cars. This has instilled in us a great passion for vintage machines (or auto d'epoca as the Italians call them). And we are determined to keep automotive cultural heritage alive!
For us, classic cars are not simply transportation devices. They are pieces of art, each with a unique story to tell and representative of a period in history....unfortunately long before we were born!
Our aim is to discover and document these stories and to explore what relationship the owners have with their automobiles, what emotions they trigger and what crazy things they have done to keep their rides on the road.
Join us on our journey...and please do subscribe and follow us on Instagram: instagram.com/growing_up_with_classic_cars/
My first car was identical to yours. Same colour, year, and type of doors. It was eight years old in 1972 when I bought it. I paid £10 for it at the time, which was about three days of my wages then. Probably about 250 euros in today's money. I live near Inverness in Scotland, so my one had the steering wheel on the right hand side. I had several Fiats over the years and liked every one of them. A Fiat 128 estate 1979, a Mirafiori saloon 1981, and another Mirafiori saloon 1983. Holidayed in Italy many times and always liked to visit.
What a great video!! The hosts are not only super cute but so smart and eloquent...and not to mention the driving skills! As a Porsche enthusiast, I could not think of a better way to showcase the beauty of the 3.2L ! Congrats!
Lovely film of an excellent event ! The ABARTH for me absolutely love them and I have been lucky enough to have been around Varano as a passenger in one of. Great work as usual !
This video was exceptionally well presented! We're seeing a lot of younger members own a 924 as their first car now. Perhaps this young lady will make the same decision?
Wieder ein sehr schönes Video. Es erinnert mich an das Endeder 80er, als ich häufig in der Toskana unterwegs war - natürlich mit verschiedenen Alfa Romeos. Vielen Dank und weiter so 🎉
Che bel video. Entusiasmante, ma poi descritto benissimo da tua figlia, è una bravissima cronista, ha superato Ciclo Otto ecc., e tanti altri cronisti di auto d'epoca e corse di auto. 10 e lode. E' già una professionista nel settore. Tu sei un bravo pilota, complimenti. Piero❤
Your knowledge and enthusiasm are marvelous! The cars magnificent! I must ask... Is that Brunelleschi's Dome in the distance? I am sharing his with my daughter.... She will love it!
Ross King's history of the Santa Maria del Fiore is fascinating. Your area has given the World many wonderful things. You are continuing this tradition!
Thanks for the great conversation! Mr. Enrico Fumia is a true master of design. His sense of balance while respecting functionality is exceptional. I am grateful to him for his creativity and persistence to make his design come true - to the satisfaction of all of us 916 owners!
Sempre video fantastici, sto imparando l'italiano e sono un amante delle belle auto, alora vostri video sono perfetti! Parlate bene e è facile ad capiscare. Grazie e bravo
I visited Florence about 20 years ago. I'm a big fan of Vespa's. I bought some ice cream right there at the Duomo, sat on the step, and watched about 1000 Vespa's go by. My mind couldn't handle it, they just kept coming! I decided later that it was one of those perfect moments in life, just sitting on step of the Duomo eating ice cream with endless Vespa's. I couldn't stop smiling, then or now! I like your channel very much, it's super interesting and cool. -Paul, USA
Another excellent video ! Especially covering an interesting and little covered subject. Great to see the inclusion of the AGIP and FIAT Tagliero . I have been captivated with the prefabricated AGIP staton since seeing one on display at the Padova show.
Great video, keep it up! Subbed to the channel. One small correction though, 996 is not the best selling 911 in history. 997 sold even more, but 996 sold more than the previous gens. Cheers!
