This is one of the most beautiful creations we have seen for many years. It is an incredibly rare 1963 Lancia Flaminia GT Coupe by Touring. Right Hand Drive. It is the 2. 5 litre car. 1 of about 10 known to exist. the car will need a full restoration but all glass and lights are present. please check the boot photos for parts included. The original number plate 595GLA could be re-assigned. as it is just on a normal A Reg. the car was Cream with Red Leather from new. The engine turns freely and this was a 3C car from new but now has a twin choke solex.

The coupé and convertible versions of the Lancia Flaminia was made in relatively small numbers and surviving examples in good condition are. therefore. quite rare. Lancias Pininfarina-styled Flaminia saloon had debuted at the 1956 Turin Motor Show. Designed by newly recruited Antonio Fessia and intended as a replacement for the Aurelia. the Flaminia retained its predecessors mechanical layout. though the form of unitary construction was changed and Lancias traditional sliding pillar independent front suspension. which had been used on every model since 1922. gave way to a more modern double wishbone and coil spring arrangement. Aurelia carryovers were the overhead-valve. 60-degree V6 engine and De Dion rear transaxle (with inboard brakes). although the former had been extensively reworked by Fessia. resulting in a much stronger power unit than that designed by his predecessor. Vittorio Jano.

The short-wheelbase Flaminia Coupé appeared in 1958. followed by the Touring-styled GT and GTL (2+2) coupés and the Convertible. The latter trio shared a further-shortened (to 99) wheelbase with the Sport and Super Sport models. and all featured disc brakes and increased power. The 2. 58cc V6 produced 119bhp when installed in the more sporting Flaminias. with 140bhp available in the 3C models from 1961. which was further increased when the 2. 75cc version arrived in 1963. The majority of the restoration work was carried out in Italy. it has had a complete retrim. bare metal repaint and the leather and carpets replaced/refurbished.

Our car is incredibly rare. and it goes without saying. there is not another one available anywhere in the world. It is UK registered and ready for restoration. with prices of this model moving every month they are finally reaching the values they should be.
