1981 Lancia Beta Coupe For Sale

After Fiat acquired Lancia, they needed a more modern replacement for the Fulvia and the Beta is the result. Fitted with parts from the Fiat parts bin, this car was very modern for it's time with all independent suspension, 5 speed transmission, dual overhead cams, and wait for it -- front wheel drive! This would explain the spaciousness of the interior in such a small package. This car also has some very nice touches like functioning air conditioning, pop-out quarter windows, tilt steering wheel, and four wheel disc brakes.

Currently the auction is at $4000 and it appears to be no reserve! With only 3 days remaining, get your bid in now!
