automotive engineering with this stunning 1973 Lancia Fulvia 1.3.
Renowned for its dog leg 5-speed, nimble handling, advanced
engineering, and timeless styling, the Fulvia was the epitome of
Lancia's commitment to innovation and craftsmanship. This Series II
example captures the essence of Italian motoring heritage and
offers an exhilarating driving experience.ExteriorThe classic lines
of this Fulvia are accentuated by its graceful proportions and
distinctive front fascia, complete with the iconic narrow grille
and quad headlamps. The body is finished in a beautiful shade of
red, which highlights the elegant curves and crisp edges of the
Bertone-inspired design. The chrome bumpers and trim shine
brightly, offering a tasteful contrast against the bodywork. It
sits on the correct period-correct 14' steel wheels that are
wrapped in 165/80R14 Falken Sincera tires.InteriorThe cabin is an
exercise in understated sophistication. The black bucket seats are
supportive and comfortable, offering a perfect place to enjoy
spirited drives. The simple, driver-focused dashboard features
classic Veglia Borletti instrumentation, woodgrain details, and an
elegant 3-spoke steering wheel that pays homage to Lancia's
motorsport pedigree. All controls are within easy reach, reflecting
the thoughtful ergonomics that Lancia was known for. The dash
features a speedometer, tachometer, voltmeter, engine temp, oil
pressure, and further over to the passenger side a
clock.PerformanceUnder the hood lies the heart of this Fulvia: a
1,298cc V4 engine producing a lively 90 horsepower. Mated to a
precise 5-speed manual transmission, this powerplant offers an
engaging and responsive driving experience. The engine is
front-mounted with front-wheel drive, which, when combined with the
car's lightweight construction and independent front suspension,
delivers exceptional handling and balance. The disc brakes on all
four wheels ensure confident stopping power when you are driving
past the limit.Heritage & ConditionThe Lancia Fulvia enjoyed
success in motorsport, particularly in rallying, and this 1.3 model
retains the DNA of those championship-winning 1.6 HF Fulvias (we
have one in stock!). This example has a lot of recent work
completed by Car Cave including suspension, brakes, coolant system,
fuel system and complete tune-up. We completed almost $8000 in
reconditioning and maintenance to get this Fulvia road ready.
