Footnotes
Based on the Fulvia saloon, a 2+2 coupé on a shorter wheelbase was launched in 1965. Though mechanically similar, the beautiful newcomer had all the visual presence its progenitor lacked and came with a 1,216cc engine producing 80bhp. In 1967 the model was up-rated with the 1,298cc, 85bhp engine, becoming the Fulvia Rallye 1.3. Tuned, lightweight 'HF' versions provided increased performance and formed the basis of the Squadra Corse works team's highly successful rally programme that saw the Fulvia HF 1600 secure Lancia's first Manufacturers' World Championship in 1972. Although their symbol was a galloping elephant, these cars were true paragons of lightness and efficiency. Producing 101bhp at 6,400rpm, the Rallye 1300 HF's engine was the most powerful 1.3-litre unit used in a Fulvia. There were only 882 cars made, compared with 1,258 Fulvia Rallye 1600 HFs produced between 1969 and 1970.
This beautiful Fulvia Rallye 1300 HF has formed part of the collection belonging to the current vendor, a well-known driver and member of the famous Italia Jolly Club racing team, since 1975. According to the owner, he won multiple events that year, often setting lap records. Previously, the Fulvia had been owned by his friend Giorgio Corti, another Jolly Club driver, with whom he participated in circuit races and hill climbs between 1974 and 1975 in more than 30 competitions. In 1974 alone Giorgio Corti is reported to have won more than 15 races in this car at both circuits and hill climbs.
The vendor informs us that the car was treated to an extensive restoration in 2017, both cosmetically and mechanically, respecting the original specification and in-period preparation done by Gigi Macciocca and Baggioli for its first owner, Giorgio Corti. Finished in dark red/white with black interior, this is an historically important Lancia Fulvia 1300 HF which presents beautifully.
