    Yet another car I'll likely never see in person. Beautiful - sporty yet understated in a way few cars have managed. #lancia

    Is it just me, or is anyone else reminded of the original Nissan Silvia CSP311 of 64-68 by the Lancia Fulvia Coupe? The side profile bears a striking resemblance! I tend to wonder if the Italians copied the Japanese on this one, as the Silvia predates the Fulvia Coupe by one model year.

    @Jim-Bob: More likely the Italians had been working on it for 20 years and then got industrial-spied-upon just as they were cranking up to make them. #lancia

    @Jim-Bob: The Fulvia coupe and sedan were styled in-house by Lancia, and the Nissan was styled by their own designers with input from Count Albrecht Goertz. A stylish coincidence, I think. #lancia

    @Jim-Bob: Perhaps a mixture of both. The body-length bevel was probably borrowed from Bertone's Alfa Giulia coupe, which emerged in 1962. The hard angles on the greenhouse very new, but not unique. The Silvia carried the bevel to the rear, which was unusual. The shark nose was pretty advanced, too. BMW hadn't used it on its coupes/sedans yet.

    One of my favorite vintage Japanese designs. #lancia

    As opposed to the bastardized-Fiat Beta coupe in yesterday's PCH, this is pure Lancia through and through. The Fulvias are definitely worth preserving, though they still rust like mad. Very pretty little coupe, but that front-end facelift with the staggered lights is not an improvement over the original nose. #lancia

    @mechimike: Which Wildcat had staggered lights? The only Buick I can think of with staggered lights was the '59 - the Wildcat was introduced for '62. You really think those little pods for the outer lights on the '72 Fulvia are an improvement over the smoother, earlier nose? #lancia

    North Central WV used to have lots of wierd Euro iron on the roads. I'm originally from Grafton WV (the Home of Mother's Day), and there were Fiat, Triumph, BMC/British Leyland, Renault, Peugeot, Volvo and Mercedes Benz dealerships here well into the mid-70's. Many cars were brought back by servicemen from Europe. My neighbor had a Renault R8 Gordini that fascinated me as a kid. I also remember seeing a Triumph Vitesse convertable that used to pop up on our local roads each summer. The art teacher at our local middle school drove a Lancia Beta coupe. Still, a Fulvia Zagato in Weston is a surprise.


    For the record, I do not have a vestigial tail, webbed feet or hands, Hapsburg chin, hemophilia or any other genetic abnormalities. In addition, I have all my teeth, do not find my sisters attractive, and enjoyed indoor plumbing and cable tv throughout my life in the Mountain State.

    One of these has been sitting unsold at Fantasy Junction for months. You'd think it was a new car or something. The FJ car has the added benefit of Euro headlights and Campy (?) wheels.

    Sexy car. Too bad it's just 1.3 liters.

    @theeastbaykid: E.B.K., the 1.3 motor's pretty good for its day: DOHC, twin sidedraught carbs, around 90 bhp from only 1298ccs. Provided you remember to keep the revs up, it's great fun.


    And the one at FJ actually has a 1.6 in it, per the description on their site. Don't really understand why it's been there so long.

    @etang: Didn't mean to belittle (har, har) the 1.3 motor, but contemporary smallbore Alfas and BMWs (to use two examples) were musclecars by comparison. That said, there are a couple of 1.3L standard Fulvias running in California vintage-rally circles, and they seem to do just fine. Nice 1.6 catch on the FJ car--I guess that would make this a Fulvia Zagato HF for the nerds.

    In my opinion, the regular Fulvia coupe is much prettier than this thing. The European models of the Zagato had rectangular headlights that look better than this awkward setup.
