The Lancia Fulvia is one of my favorite Italian coupes. It's slanted grille, delicate roofline and proportions that suggest a larger car than you would think give it presence to which new cars can not hold a candle. I've always dreamed of owning one, but sadly, this V4 powered rally legend is getting more and more expensive by the minute, at least in the US market. Scour the classifieds in Europe, however, and it's another story. Here is a clean example with a repaint and original interior for sale at a reasonable price in my homeland, Portugal.

1974 Lancia Fulvia S3

Currently in a very good condition. Carefully maintained. Excellent mechanical condition. Repainted 7 years ago, remains very, very nice with no defaults. Absolutely rust free! The interior and chrome were in perfect condition and still original. This Fulvia shows all the original details. Very clean car with nice looks.

At €8,500 (~ $11,300), even including the cost of shipping stateside, this represents a good value for a well preserved Fulvia. These cars are beginning to see a rise in values and given their history and significance, will continue on an upswing as enthusiasts come to appreciate them.
