Title: Hi from Italy !
Post by: StefanoF on November 29, 2018, 10:08:36 AM
Good morning! My name is Stefano and I am a mechanical engineer, 67 old, from Florence - Italy. With my old Beta Montecarlo gr.4, I won two Italian Hill Climb Championship in 2015 and 2016: now the car is in France, attending the European Rally Championship...... but I don't was able to remain without one Lancia Beta and one week ago I bought a beautiful Coupè 1800-blu Lancia-1974 !!!
Thanks for welcome !
Stefano

Welcome Stefano that's a great looking Coupe  - very early too. Has it been used in competition? I see the seats and the kill switch.

Hi

Looks like a really nice car, and an 1800 S1 which is a bit special being pretty rare.

One question, the grills on he bonnet are not black, was this a later mod or original?

Those grilles can be silver or black but I've never got it sorted as to which model has which!

I really like both the wheels and the interior. It is nice to see period alloy wheels as they would have been used to replace the steel ones by many owners.

Yes, Eric is right, those wheels have grown on me after a couple of views!
