The Flaminia was Lancia's flagship throughout the 1960s. Designed by Pininfarina, the Berlina was built in house by Lancia, the last model to be built at the Borgo San Paolo factory. This was a sizeable sedan with presence, so much so that the President of Italy at the time, Giovanni Gronchi, ordered four stretched versions with a landaulet style roof over the rear passenger compartment. While not the Presidenziale version, this Flaminia for sale is equipped with the larger 2.8 V6 and looks rather stately in basic black.
Center armrest, rear armrest, front center armrest, radio. Lancia Flaminia Berlina 2.8, three owners with only 86,000 original kilometers. Super clean condition! Body very solid, no rust below ground, perfect. Mechanically 100% and drives like new. Complete interior refurbishment. The original version 2.8 is very rare!
Flaminia Berlinas in good nick can bring upwards of $30,000 these days. The asking price of this car represents great value for a rare Italian classic in mint condition. The Berlinas usually don't bring the higher values that the sportier versions Zagato, Touring and Pininfarina produced, but they are just as special. This particular Berlina is one of the better ones that I've seen on offer. If I was wealthy and needed a discrete sedan in which to waft around town in, I could very well see myself in this car. Unlike a lot of Italian cars that shout about with unconventional styling and bold colors, the Flaminia has a more conservative, but equally stylish presence. But given that this is a Lancia, I'd almost surely want to skip the driver and get behind the wheel myself.
The Lancia Fulvia is without a doubt my favorite Lancia of all time and possibly one of my most favorite Italian cars. I've raved about this car before here in CICFS, but this is the oldest Fulvia we've featured yet, Oldest Fulvia we've featured. Designed in house by Piero Castagnero and introduced in 1965, this small coupe was where Lancia's status as a rally champion began. This 1.3S for sale in Washington is a prime example of one of Italy's lesser known heros.
What is being offered here is a 1967 Lancia Fulvia 1.3 Ralley Coupe that belongs to a client. He actually owns 2 of them and has decided to part with one. The car is in very good, what I would call a great club car condition. Very straight over all very complete and for the most part correct. No signs of ever having been in an accident. I can only find two areas that seem to have had rust. one is the bottom of the passenger fender (see picture) and the passenger floor pan has been replaced at some point as well. The rest of the underside looks quite original and in good condition.
Receipts with the car totaling over $11,000. would show that in the last two years the engine has been overhauled and brakes rebuilt among other things. I know that my client has well over $18,000. invested in this car, so his loss can be your gain. The car has very presentable paint. The engine compartment is tidy and lightly detailed. The interior is very nice seats clearly reupholstered and to a very high standard, the dash top has been recovered, and the wood face on the dash is the nicest I have ever seen in a Fulvia (and I have seen a lot of them over the years).
The odometer shows 40,522 miles, I am guessing that is 140522 since the odometer maxes out at 99,999. miles. VIN # 818 330 006968. The car runs, drives and stops very well, and starts easily. The steering is nice and the front end does not seem to have any excessive play. Is this a perfect Concours example No, but it is a very good example and one I would not be ashamed to own, it would be hard if not impossible to duplicate a car as good as this at this price. Happy to help arrange shipping for the new owner but all shipping cost will be at the expense of the new owner.
The Buy it Now price of $17,500 is about bang on in terms of value for a clean, well maintained Fulvia, especially considering the recent maintenance done. I'm always surprised that these Fulvias aren't as valuable as the Alfa GTV from the same era, but perhaps their obscurity holds them back a bit. Still, for a car with such a storied rallying career, I tend to think values on these cars have nowhere to go but up.
The following is a short feature from Deutsche Welle TV regarding the rally version of the Fulvia, the 1.6 HF:
For an innovative company as Lancia, it was unfortunate that their short chapter in the US ended with the oft maligned Beta. This wasn't a terrible car, but it was the first Lancia to be developed under Fiat ownership and was designed down to a price, in comparison to earlier, better engineered Lancias. The Beta also got a bad rap from the alarming rate at which the car would succomb to rust, evening prompting a buyback campaign in the United Kingdom. In 1982, Lancia pulled out of the US market; their last car marketed being the Zagato Spider. While not a full convertible, the Zagato featured a roll hoop with targa roof panel and folding rear portion. Under 10,000 were produced, leaving this to be a rather uncommon Italian classic. This Zagato Spider for sale in Phoenix is being offered by the Arizona Chapter President of the Fiat Lancia Club.
Lancia Martini Racing themed livery in removable vinyl on four coats new paint (Aug 2010). Factory original type and color-sanded, buffed flat. Wheels refinished in silver metallic. Engine bay performance modifications include: 10-1 Pistons at .040 over, 40/80 Aquati cam, larger Weber 34mm DATR 2 barreled carb (brand new from box – not refurbished), lightened flywheel, 1” racing cam belt, 105 amp alternator, results similar to European spec yielding about 120HP vs original 90, 82 version 180 degree thermostat and lower fan temp switch, upgraded A/C on custom 4 row radiator, new compressor, much bigger condenser, new evaporator, 134a conversion, 3 electric fans (2 A/C and one engine).
Tightened suspension using all new “Beta Boys” bushes. New modern leather bucket seats. Much better for tall drivers over the originals. History: World wide production (1978-1982): 9390. Body styled by Pinninfarina, but built at Zagato factory. This is one of 2076 (828.BS1 FL) manufactured for the US market. Arizona car since new. 65,000 miles. Purchased new in Tucson, currently in Phoenix. Performance rebuild started in 2006 (at 50,000 miles). I have a highly complete and mostly “restored” Lancia Beta Zagato I have decided to pass on to a good home. These are very practical collectibles and I think a good investment.
As drivers and show cars they are more fun than most people realize. According to a book I have, there were only some 2700 of all variants of this model shipped to the US and not a great many more made worldwide. This example has a new paint job I would put up against any show car of the same model. The pictures do not do it justice, it really should be seen in person. There is over $12K of documented upgrades on the vehicle all since 2006. It went back and forth across the desert on a road rally and also to CA for Monterey car week so is well checked out.
Most recently I changed the radiator/ fan back to original from the modified ones using a brand new full copper core and did an AC a charge before summer. It has new tires and an impossibly rare new turn signal cluster. I have access to a set of the original seats separate sale if desired. I have driven 6 or seven of these and this is the tightest suspension of the lot. The engine is also the strongest in the lower registers. In fact the torque is so good it could really use longer legs in the gearing. Runs about 42 -4400 rpm at 75/80 and feels like it could go the same speed with less revs. This is an AZ car with no rust, that was a real problem with these. I have a 4” thick book of documentation from prior owners including original purchase in Arizona. Much more I could tell, but you just need to see it if that is at all possible. Don’t buy another one without considering this one strongly.
I also have two others including a parts car so I can give you +/- on other year variations and why this is the best if you call me to discuss. The car is just back from another 600 mile tour with other Lancias in northern AZ. So it is well checked out again, but it is 33 years old so there is always something left to do. Items I would mention to work on are a small header pipe exhaust leak, fixed once but a recent bump brought it back; electrical draw when cold, fine if you run it every few days but I keep it on a trickle charger anyway. It needs couple fixes on the interior including a new dash cover and a full hyde food treatment and other details I could mention but nothing serious.
That said, this is now only just 15K on a new engine rebuilt, total suspension and shock bushing upgrade, electrical, ac and cooling upgrades, etc, etc. You won’t find a better example to keep and use long term. I am an active member and current president on the AZ chapter of the Fiat Lancia Club. I have several collectible cars (to many now which is my reason for selling) but the Zagato is the one I take most in the summer and for distance trips. Also used for last minute car meets where I need something that looks good and I can start up right away. This car has been displayed on the Lawn at Concorso Italiano and numerous shows around phoenix gaining “best Lancia” at Belezzze di Italia last Feb.
This Zagato Spider is arguably one of the best Betas I've seen and the asking price of $6,400 seems reasonable considering the ownership history, description and work done to it. The Martini decal certainly isn't too overstated and adds a bit of interest to this car. Any classic Italian car purchase is a risk, but the owner of this Beta has taken out a lot of the guesswork.
We featured a Fulvia Zagato at the very beginning of the month, but the more I keep eyeing these stylish little sports cars, the closer they are to securing a place on my automotive bucket list. With narrow angle V4 engine mounted at a 45 degree angle, they certainly lived up to the unique engineering solutions Lancia was famous for. This one for sale in Florida is a bit toned down in silver, but the color looks sharp with the black seats and red carpeting.
1972 Lancia Fulvia Zagato 1.3S Series II 5-speed. Good condition, everything works including rear window motor. Body excellent shape, no dents or dings. Runs well, no mechanical problems. Good original interior. Good electrical system, three owners from new. We have complete documentation. The miles are marked in the velocimeter 31,580 (19,800 miles) but maybe 131,580 (82,000 miles). Had no major accidents. $25,500 firm
Excellent examples of the Fulvia Zagato are closing in on $40,000 these days, so this example in the mid $20k range is just about right. The fact that the owner does not know whether the car has 31,000 or 131,000 km on the clock is a bit disconcerting and raises a few questions regarding the car's history and documentation. If I was in the market, I'd obviously want to examine the complete documentation the vehicle is said to come with to get to the bottom of that question. Otherwise, it looks to be a solid example of a rorty little Italian classic.
Lancia was never one to follow the crowd when it came to trends. Witness the Beta HPE, which initially stood for High Performance Estate. Two door estate vehicles have never been particularly popular, but Lancia felt the urge to offer a two door Beta with the Berlina’s floorplan to create a long, two door shooting brake. It wasn’t a particularly rare car, with over 71,000 produced, but few worldwide survive to this day. This particular HPE is a very late model example for sale in Germany is a VX, or Volumex variant. This model featured the 2.0 liter twin cam engine with a Rootes type supercharger producing 133 horsepower.
The engine is partially revised, superseded the shift linkage. New parts: steering gear, battery, front brake pads, brake hoses, high performance silicone ignition, 40 Weber carburetors, Bilsten shock absorbers, Ansa dual exhaust, lowering kit (30mm) from Hörmann. Aluminum radiator and thermostat and manifold. The HPE is beautiful, fast, hard and loud. Four winter tires on original alloy wheels are available, a further seven hole Lancia alloy wheels are included. It is a non-smoking vehicle. No winters.
With just over 60,000 miles, we’re looking at about $1,000 per 10,000 miles here with this car. Any Beta over $5,000 is a gamble, as they are not terribly favored in the eye of the collector and there is little room for appreciation in the future. The rarity of the HPE/Volumex combination makes this a more desirable Beta than most, but for interested parties in the US, shipping and importation costs come into play. This certainly seems as good as any HPE you’ll find these days and hopefully someone snaps it up that will look after it so future generations of car enthusiasts can have a window into a period of time where Lancia dared to be different.
The Lancia Fulvia Sport Zagato is one of those rare instances where most enthusiasts would find the original car more attractive than the one designed by the coach builder. The original Fulvia was so delicately proportioned that it seemed hard to improve on, but that didn't stop Zagato, who had worked with Lancia on a number of vehicles in the past. Envisioned as a light weight competition model, the Fulvia Sport Zagato scored a class win at Daytona in 1969. This particular Fulvia Zagato Sport was restored in Europe in the 1990s and subsequently shipped to the US.
1967 Lancia Fulvia Zagato 1.3S. s/n 818650*001015* Eng. no. 818.410-2239540. Red with Black Interior. Always industry leaders in design innovation, Lancia’s Fulvia 1.3 Sport, with front wheel drive, and a narrow angle 1.3 liter V4 engine was no exception. Easy to control with their front wheel drive, and capable of 110 mph, Lancia campaigned Fulvia Sports in international rally and circuit events throughout Europe with great success. In total six different bodies were mounted to Fulvia chassis. The Zagato bodied are generally regarded as the most aesthetically pleasing of all variations.
This particular car has been the subject of a sympathetic restoration in the early 1990s by Lancia expert Franco De Piero in Italy. Best described today as a very nice driver, it has been tastefully fitted with fender and rocker panel flairs, more modern seats with additional side supports and headrests, charcoal carpets, and a more rigid, smaller diameter steering wheel. This gives the car a decidedly sporty feel and appears when compared to a stock Fulvia 1.3. Attesting to the mechanical condition, after the restoration was complete Mr. De Piero drove the car from Italy across mainland Europe to Amsterdam where it was exported to the US.
Cosmetically, the car presents very well. The car has seen a nice repaint in a deep shade of red over straight and solid panels. The interior was re-trimmed at the time of the restoration and also makes a strong impression. The dash top is free of cracks, and the original gauges, switchgear, and gear shift knob remain. The headliner is dyed black and in very good order. The car runs and drives well with good power, minimal smoke, and a nice transaxle. All the gauges appear to work, and the rear hatch opening and closing mechanism is operational. The suspension and steering are compliant, and the brakes effective. With prices now exceeding $650,000 for the 1600cc Alfa Romeo TZs, this is an opportune chance to acquire very presentable, exotic, Zagato bodied, small bore Italian GT before prices on these too soar out of sight in today’s fast moving market. $34,500
At the high end, Fulvia 1300 Sport Zagatos are glancing the $40,000 mark. This example is priced just about right given the restored condition. The modifications may put some purists off, but they aren't too offensive as to take away from the finished product that much. When you consider what other coach built Italian exotics go for, this could possibly be one of the least expensive ways into such a car, while enjoying the unique pleasure of owning a Lancia.
We've featured a few Lancia Scorpions for sale here on Classic Italian Cars for Sale, but I must admit, I think this is the best one yet. Looking sharp in silver over red leather, this mid engined sports car is a rare sight on these shores, as they were only sold here for the 1976 and 1977 model years. Differing from it's foreign market counterpart, the Montecarlo, the US market Scorpion had a smaller 1.8 liter engine, crash bumpers, taller suspension springs and semi pop up headlights, as opposed to fixed, flush units. Still, this car struck a very modern pose in the mid 1970s and they are revered by a small group of enthusiasts to this day. This example is for sale in Arizona and includes an impressive amount of documentation.
Up for auction is a 1976 Lancia Scorpion Beta sports coupe. This lovely little treasure is exceptionally clean inside and out. Extremely rare and nearly impossible to find in this near mint condition. This Lancia comes equipped with the original factory mid-engine 1.8L twin cam motor mounted to her five speed manual transmission. The Beta also has 4 wheel independent suspension and 4 wheel power disk brakes. Factor Air-conditioning that is complete and a rear defrost window as well. The rack and pinion steering makes the car handle great and a true sports pleasure to drive.
These Lancia Scorpions were only produced in an extremely limited quantity with this unit being number 383 out of about only fourteen hundred for the year 1976. They only produced them for two years total, ceasing production the following year, in seventy seven. The exterior is a stunning silver with red leather upholstery. Factor alloy wheels with Pirelli tires all around. She runs fantastic and hustles down the open road. This Scorpion Beta has a clean, straight and very dry body throughout. The Lancia has a very unique retractable sports roof that opens up and is a sheer pleasure when driving the automobile.
The rarity of this model makes people take notice immediately as the car demands attention. Styling by Pinin Farina attracts all from the Ferrari crowd at any car show it enters or attends. This Lancia has only sixty five thousand original miles with a clean Arizona title and complete factory paperwork including window sticker, shop manuals, dealer literature and much more. This is a fabulous car and will make a great auto for the astute aficionado and avid collector.
This car really does a good job of masking its 65,000 miles, even if this is a nominal amount for a 36 year old car. It's unreal to think this car is that old, as it still looks contemporary to this day. Scorpions in good condition can range anywhere from $4,000 to $10,000 these days. If this example brings well over $10,000, I won't be surprised, as you'd be hard pressed to find a better one.
When it was introduced in 1979, few could believe that the Lancia Delta would eventually go on to be the vehicle that would win six World Rally Championships in a row for Lancia, from 1987 to 1992. But before the four wheel drive arrived, before the championships began to amass, there was the car you see before you here. Introduced in 1979, the original Delta featured a 1.5 liter four cylinder engine with 85 horsepower, front-wheel drive and squared off lines penned by Giorgetto Giugiaro. The combination was attractive enough to win the European Car of the Year award for 1980. This like new example residing in the Netherlands is possibly one of the best examples of an early Delta left.
The Lancia Delta was introduced in 1979 and was voted European Car of the Year in 1980 by an international jury. It was a Giorgietto Giugiaro design. With the total concept of the Delta with its transversal mounted engine, front wheel drive and independent suspension a new era began in the Lancia history. The engine’s of the Delta had 1300 cc and 1500 cc with 75 hp and 85 hp. The larger engine had electronic ignition. The Delta was manufactured on a computer controlled assembly line, a guarantee for a better than average quality. From 1980 until 1986 the Delta was exported to the Scandinavian countries as "Saab-Lancia 600." Later the Delta was very successful in many international rallies in the HF Integrale version until the early nineties.
The 1983 Lancia Delta 1500 of the 1st series now available at Montagna ha had only one previous lady owner from Germany who drove 62.600 km with the car. The car is in an extraordinary condition and looks, drives and handles like a new car, a real collector’s item!
For a thirty year old vehicle, this Lancia is in amazing condition. Showroom condition is a term often thrown about on vehicle forecoruts, but this car lives up to that hype. For $7,500 USD, this is an amazing piece of Lancia history. Even if it isn't one of the faster Integrale versions, the appeal of this car lies beyond speed. This was where an icon began.
I wasn't your ordinary teenager. When my peers were pouring over tarted up Japanese subcompacts and muscle cars, I had different ideas. I always wanted a Lancia Fulvia. The looks, the oddity of a V4 engine with a 5 speed dogleg gearbox and the rally pedigree were enough to get me hooked. I still haven't experienced the pleasure of owning a Fulvia, or any Italian car, for that matter. Being the determined person I am, however, I know I will achieve that goal someday. Unlike a few Fulvias we've featured recently, this one isn't residing in the old world. It's right here in New York.
This is a absolutely beautiful Red 1972 Lancia Fulvia 1.3S coupe, all restored to its original condition. The 1972 Lancia Fulvia is special because in this year it made automotive history by winning the International Rally Championship. This car is a 5 speed manual transmission and its a blast to drive! This car was professionally maintained in Italy before being shipped by its only owner. The owner is a distinguished Italian gentleman that collects cars. He is a long time member of the Italian racing club Scuderia del Castello Alcamo and this car is his show baby.
That being said this car is in excellent condition. The interior is soft black leather with no rips or tears. The dash has no cracks and the wood is perfect. The body has no rust and the lines of this car are perfectly aligned (as you can see in the pictures). The chrome is in excellent condition around the windows and bumpers. The motor and clutch was restored in Italy before being shipped, since then the car is has been mechanically kept by and well known Italian mechanic and the car has been kept in a temperature controlled garage. Mechanically the car is in excellent condition and no expense has been spared! I want to make sure that you when you bid and buy this car you buy it with confidence! So in an effort to be totally transparent this car is a 9.5 out of 10. It has does have a rip on the roof lining 3 inches long, the lining is original and it was white and a little dirty. The paint has some minor chips, under a half inch and less then 5. The rocker panel chrome is a little worn (I'll post the picture). If you Google this car, 1972 Lancia Fulvia you will see what they are going for! This car reserve will be way way below what most people want for this car.
Average prices for Fulvias that reside stateside are averaging around the $15,000 to $20,000, with the very best examples reaching into the $20,000 range. Enthusiasts in the US are beginning to recognize just how significant these vehicles are and soon you'll see values of these trend closer to the legendary Alfa Romeo GTV Coupes. If this car could be had for right around the $15,000 mark, it would be a smart buy and a very savvy way to get into the hobby of classic Italian car ownership. It certainly is well presented and shows little in the way of modification.
One of the cars at the top of my wish list to import is the Lancia Delta Integrale. With earlier models of this rally legend legal to import, I am now awaiting the day when the later Evo models will be welcomed within US borders. While this Integrale is not an Evo nor 25 years old, it already resides in North America and is a remarkably well kept, low mileage example. Those enthusiasts living in Canada or for any US enthusiast who may be able to figure out how to federalize this car should take note.
I am offering one of the best 100% factory original 1991 Lancia Delta Integrale 16V with 28,413 original miles. Yes, twenty eight thousand original miles since new! This is a rare numbers matching 1991 Lancia Delta Integrale, the 6 time World Rally Champion and was stored in a private collection and still looks as new today. Lancia won more rallies with the Delta Integrale than any other car!
Here are some highlights: The actual mileage on this Integrale is 28,413 original miles or 48,000 km. No rips, tears, cuts, or any other imperfections in the factory Recaro leather seats, door panels and dashboard - brand spanking new! Non-smoker and was never smoked in by anyone else. There is an original Sony Lancia stereo.
TRANSMISSION: 5-speed transmission. The transmission shifts perfectly in every gear.
BODY: 100% rust free, all metal! This Lancia Delta Integrale has the factory original paint and was never in any accident or collision whatsoever. All original factory shell panels, no aftermarket parts whatosever. Perfect floors, rocker panels, trunk, etc. Look at the detailed photos.
EXHAUST SYSTEM: Factory exhaust system front to back.
WHEELS/TIRES: Factory original, OZ Racing wheels will be bead blasted and refinished in any color you choose.
INTERIOR: All original, factory Recaro leather interior. What can I say? Again, let the photos speak for themselves!
I am sure I forgot to mention other stuff that was done, please ask me any questions that you have.
WHY I BOUGHT IT?
To the best of my knowledge and from the Integrale I have ever seen, this is the best unmolested original 1991 Lancia Delta Integrale 16V, just the engine compartment alone speaks volumes of its condition. No black tar or black paint to cover up the flaws like all the others I have seen. It is as the day it came out of the factory.
WHY AM I SELLING IT?
I bought an Aston Martin and need to sell some of my precious toys. The asking price is very reasonable, after all, you are buying as new, lowest mileage, unmolested Integrale that should be a part of a rally collection.
TITLE/SHIPPING
This 1991 Lancia Delta Integrale comes with a clean Canadian title. I will assist the buyer in shipping and can arrange delivery to the USA/Canada or anywhere in the world at the buyer's expense. I encourage you to come and see this Integrale for yourself. I do not want to mislead anyone to its condition and my standards may be different than yours.
These early 90s, pre Evo Integrales tend average around $15,000 to $20,000 USD for examples in decent nick with under 100,000 miles. I would go out on a limb and say that given this Integrale is one of a few in North America, the asking price is worth it, given you will be avoiding shipping and customs fees. A tempting piece of (currently) forbidden fruit for US enthusiasts, but if you have a place to store this until it's legal in 2016, this would be a great investment and a fun piece of performance motoring history.
