THE MOTORCAR OFFERED

This Flaminia has had only three owners in the last three decades. Maintained by the father of the current owner in the mid-1980s, it was purchased by the previous owner in the late '80s. A careful custodian of the elegant Italian coupe, he kept it regularly serviced at the same shop as the previous owner. Painted silver when he acquired the car, it was repainted in the 1990s to the more understated black that it carries today.

Outside of the repaint, however, the car presents and largely original with the glass and brightwork looking nicely mellowed 56 years after leaving the factory. The original interior, however, is truly stunning. Very original and beautifully preserved, it shows not just the quality of the materials and craftsmanship, but also the carefully thought out design that made this car an ergonomic masterpiece. Extremely comfortable and beautiful to behold, it is little wonder that Lancias of the 1950s and 60s are so well regarded for their excellent design and supreme quality of workmanship.

In the last five years, the car has had the brakes and carburetors rebuilt and the fuel system cleaned out. Last year, a burned piston resulted in the engine being overhauled with new JE piston, valves, and bearings. Described as a very smooth runner, this is a truly stunning machine that will provide comfort and driving enjoyment beyond most anything else from the period.
