    I think you'll have to look in the UK. Are you looking for a saloon, a coupé, or a sport? There's a nice-looking saloon on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Lancia-Fulvia-Sedan-S2_W0QQitemZ250328216471QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAutomobiles_UK?hash=item250328216471&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=66%3A4%7C65%3A3%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318

    omicron.uk.com for sale section usually has a few. Join the club. Talk to some of the members. there's a good few coupes in ireland, although not many of them see too much daylight. The battle with rust and electrics goes on furtively in sheds all over the country. Worth the effort. www.lanciaireland.com

    havent passed there in a few years., though i have been within half a mile of it. I know the man who owned them, drove all of them,and parked them up, as he got another..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 239 ✭✭tyney


    obviously not looking for the gents address on a public forum, but if he has anything salvageable, i'm always on the lookout for fulvia bits. I'm in the middle of a project, and engine/drivetrain bits are scarce in my shed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,783 ✭✭✭rugbyman


    I will drive there tomorrow, just to get away from the remains of the turkey.
    Hope I havent wheted your appetite, with no reason. I know the man , an elegant old chap who always drove lancias. I would imagine he would let stuff go to a good home.

    I used to have one, RZO 700. Unfortunately it was completely destroyed by fire.

    FULVIA

    I went there today, nobody in but had a walk around. Am dying to list the cars that were there but without his permission, wont for the moment.

    From a Lancia point of view, NO Zagato,

    there is a completely beyond repair fulvia sport . the name is in chrome on the front of the bonnet. the engine is in there, the car is irish reg. red colour.
    would be pleased to put two in contact, when i get him in.

    another lancia ,coupe sort of, with 2000ie on the boot lid. We used have a Lancia beta car 1976 and i would say this is the coupe of it.

    There is a completely rotten karmann there with irish plates so i intend to try and get that for myself.

    regards ,RUGBYMAN

    The Fulvia sport is the Zagato, it should have little Z badges on the front wings.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,783 ✭✭✭rugbyman


    Hello Anan 1

    that is interesting. the car looks as if it rotted into the ground from the floor upwards. the curves of the rear wings are evident, the chrome badge saying fulvia sport may have two letters after it / the headlights are small and square. obviously no radiator or grill because part of the engine is visible, possibly the timing chain cover ,blue.

    Though you said yours got burned, tyney said that he believed there were only two in existence. is it known how many there were in the first place.
    I lived in Dublin in 69/70 and remember a few, along with a number of opel gt s around town. there were then also a number of Fiat topolinos about for students who drove( then) classics.

    Are zagatos rare in the uk?

    Regards ,Rugbyman

    I know of 2, but there are likely to be more in sheds around the country. There is no telling what numbers of any model remain. last year I saw a montecarlo left in a ditch to rot. It was driven up there, but it will probably never set tire on the road again. So, I know of 2 fulvia sports, one which drives lovely, and one with 4 wheels on it which will run again. they crop up on ebay uk periodically. Usually without all their bits. Outdoors for 2+ years not running will probably be the end of it. I Would like to be introduced to this rust encompassed engine and gearbox.
