  • Single-family ownership from new
  • Highly original unrestored example, ideal for restoration or preservation
  • One of only 180 triple-carburettor, 2.8-litre examples

Perched atop the Lancia Flaminia pecking order was the GT Convertible, a sophisticated two-seater built upon a shortened-wheelbase platform. Clothed in a body sculpted from aluminium by Carozzeria Touring using their trademark Superleggera construction technique, it was the perfect convertible to use and enjoy in the Italian sunshine.

This particular single-owner Lancia Flaminia is amongst the most original examples left, and it is offered today by the son of its first and only owner. With 887 Flaminias produced, only 180 examples were equipped with the upgraded 2.8-litre all-alloy V-6 engine fed by triple downdraft Weber carburettors and capable of 150 bhp.

Delivered new and kept in its native Portugal its whole life, the car’s first owner was won over by its advanced design and particular disc brakes. The car was regularly used for ten years before being hidden away on the owner’s estate upon Portugal’s 1974 Carnation Revolution. It has not turned a wheel since and presents in exceptionally well-preserved condition throughout. Largely complete, albeit for a missing driver’s side window, it even retains its original interior and rubber floormats.

Beautifully specified in

Avorio

Chantilly and trimmed in dark red leather with a black soft top, it is undoubtedly a car for the connoisseur and a wonderful opportunity to acquire a unique Lancia as the perfect basis for a restoration or preservation.

Au sommet de la hiérarchie des Lancia Flaminia trônait la GT cabriolet, une deux-places raffinée construite sur une plateforme à empattement court. Habillée d'une carrosserie en aluminium sculptée par la Carozzeria Touring selon sa technique de construction caractéristique Superleggera, c'était le cabriolet parfait pour jouir du soleil d'Italie.

Cette Lancia Flaminia à l'unique propriétaire est l'un des exemplaires les plus conformes à l'origine qui subsistent ; elle nous est proposée par le fils de son premier et unique propriétaire. Sur les 887 Flaminia produites, il n'y en eut que 180 équipées du V6 tout alu de 2,8 litres dans sa version améliorée à trois carburateurs inversés Weber, qui délivrait 150 chevaux.

Cette voiture, livrée neuve au Portugal et ne l'ayant jamais quitté, avait conquis son propriétaire par la modernité de sa ligne et par l'originalité de ses freins à disques. Elle a été utilisée de façon régulière pendant dix ans avant d'être dissimulée quelque part sur le domaine de son propriétaire lors de la Révolution portugaise des Œillets, en 1974. Elle n'a pas bougé depuis et se présente dans un état de conservation remarquable. Elle est quasiment complète, sauf la vitre de la porte conducteur qui manque, et son intérieur est d'origine, y compris ses tapis en caoutchouc.

Cette voiture, d'un magnifique ivoire Chantilly avec un intérieur en cuir rouge foncé et une capote noire, est à n'en pas douter une voiture pour connaisseurs. Elle représente une merveilleuse occasion d'acquérir une Lancia exceptionnelle qui sera la parfaite base d'une restauration ou d'une conservation en l'état.
