There’s a quite important debate about cars for sale with incredible curricula and a huge amount of historical papers, proving their eligibility in the most important international events.  This is, of course, the result of a deep and substantial evolution in the collector mind, that’s now much more focused on traceability, history and provenance. Good and compliant restoration, as well as mechanical reliability are still very appreciated, but talking about “matching number” and “matching colour” examples makes the real difference. In my personal opinion, this difference is a precious and irreplaceable value, especially if fully documented by a faultless certification. Thanks to the professional skills of the international registrars, the marque specialists and the daily growing bibliography, there’s a quite available network that can help us to build up a substantive file to accompany and valorise our beloved vintage cars.

Being part of the 1000 MIGLIA Register as an appointed consultant since the beginning of this year, I had the chance to assist to the FIVA special session for the Mille Miglia eligible cars at the Mille Miglia Museum on February 23^rd and 24^th. Working with my beloved friend and partner Paolo Mazzetti and my estimated colleague Paul Loveridge, I’ve been dealing with the whole ASI staff during the inspection operations on the huge variety of vintage cars that came there with their proud owners and collectors. It was such a great and important experience made of interesting and different opinions and professional comments… Thanks a lot to all the people who made these two days a fantastic event to start again a marvellous racing season!

Many thanks to Stefano, Paolo, Riccardo, Raoul, Veniero, Roberto, Francesco, Henry, Ger, Ivan, Massimo and all the friends coming to the 2021 event with their Motorstorica sportscars…. See You next year!
