1967 OSI 20M TSIf you’re like me, you don’t know much about this one—but it sure is pretty! Apparently Ghia split off OSI as a company to build short runs of special cars. This particular sleek coupe is one of around 2,200 ever built, and is for sale in Ventura, California. It’s offered here on eBay where right now the auction is just under $5,000. The car was based on the German Ford Taunus and features a small V6 engine and a four-speed manual. This one is obviously in nice shape, having won a show in 2014 and said to be running and driving well. It’s only been repainted once, 35 years ago, and the paint looks very nice still. Unlike a lot of barn finds, this one actually comes with all the paperwork since it was purchased in Italy back in the early 70’s. I’m not sure where this will end up price-wise, but I sure like it! What do you think?
