Colour dark red with yellow and blue striping combined with a black leathercloth interior and black carpet. This Lancia Fulvia Coupé 1600 HF is the holy grail of the programme. It is an original so called ‘Fanalone’ (big headlamps) version of which only 1258 cars were built from 1968 until 1970. The easiest way to distinguish this special version is by the triangular holes between the big headlights and the grille. This original sporting version is built using a lot of aluminium panels, plexiglass rear window and rear side windows, no bumpers, and a minimal interior to save on weight. This Lancia Fulvia was extensively restored in the past; the car is in a superb top condition! The car shows all the original details and is fitted with the special original Ferrero steering wheel with the engraved autograph of Sandro Munari (legendary Lancia rally driver). The bodywork has received a full Waxoil treatment of the hollow spaces. The odometer currently reads 64272 kilometres. Recently the Lancia received and extensive service and adjustment of the ignition and the carburettors on a Dynamometer (Dyno test). The engine delivers a very healthy 133 (DIN) hp.
