Default Lancia on eBay

Here is a rarity.. makes me wish I had about 30 grand to toss around. The Fulvia Coupe WAS a rally winner. Lancia ran it right before the Stratos was produced.

The Fulvia was also an interesting car. It is front wheel drive with a V4 engine (a rare design) very similar to Vdubs VR6 in basic design. As you can notice, it cranked WAY over to the driver's side to get a low hood line and the engine itself sits infront of the engine. Most "yump" shots you see of the Fulvia show it landing on it's nose becuase of this.

Probably should have given the eBay link in case anybody wants to see more pics. And actually, many people will tell you that the Fulvia was a VERY pretty little car with a very classy look. I will try and dig up a picture of a standard one.

My old man had the same Lancia back in Germany in 1991. It was one of the most "upper class" cars you could drive even even for it being 20 years old.

nope.. dual carbs. One throat per cylinder. Major PITA to keep synced properly, but when properly set up, VERY sweet in both power and sound.
