Title: Lancia Beta 2.0 Post by: AdrianWin on February 05, 2022, 05:11:14 PM Hi, my name is Adrian and I will be continuing the story of Beta Coupé 2.0, 1980, that I am restoring currently.
The engine is nearly ready, (https://images91.fotosik.pl/569/4ab72efe174341dcmed.jpg) (https://images91.fotosik.pl/569/4ab72efe174341dc.jpg) (https://images90.fotosik.pl/569/5ca6208dac4835bbmed.jpg) (https://images90.fotosik.pl/569/5ca6208dac4835bb.jpg) Next step will be to revise the gearbox. Title: Re: Lancia Beta 2.0 Post by: AdrianWin on February 05, 2022, 05:17:04 PM I have a question - as the car has a front bonnet from 1 series, I would like to change it to second series 2.0 (the one with long plastic). I found interesting one but from volumex (with mound).
Would that be to big change to instal a volumex front bonnet on a 1980 2.0 beta coupe? I understand that car would lose a little from originality - but would that be much in your opinion? I am rather a fan of originality but here I am bit unsure Thanks Title: Re: Lancia Beta 2.0 Post by: SanRemo78 on February 05, 2022, 05:28:16 PM Bonnets are interchangeable but you may need to change the bonnet hinges too if you want to fit a later radiator grille and lights/surrounds. Or an earlier bonnet/grille to a later car!

The car is serie 3, 1980, coupe, so old type front grill. Overally - from esthetic point of view - would a volumex bonnet fit third serie coupe 2.0? |
