AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

GENERAL:

We offer for sale a rare 1968 Lancia Flavia 1800 Series 2 “819” with carburetor. It is a specimen of notable collector interest due to the highly sought-after mechanical combination: 1800 engine paired with carbureted fuel system and steering-wheel gearshift, a configuration produced in only 4,334 units. This car represents the essence of the last true classic Lancia, characterized by timeless elegance and a striking color combination between exterior and interior.

BODYWORK AND PAINTING:

The bodywork is in overall very good condition. It has undergone partial repainting focused exclusively on the areas showing the most signs of wear, while the rest retains the original paint. This conservative choice has helped preserve the original patina typical of “preserved” cars, a value greatly appreciated by purists who want an authentic vehicle.

TECHNICAL:

The car has been recently started after many years of inactivity through a series of important targeted mechanical interventions. In addition to a normal service, specific work was carried out on the fuel system with carburetor revision, tank regeneration, and replacement of the fuel pump and filters. The braking system has been completely overhauled, including calipers, pump, and brake booster, while the exhaust has been renewed with the replacement of the central silencer, rear exhaust, and related supports. Steering components have also been checked. The car is running, however, given the long period of stationary use, a break-in period is advised after which further small technical refinements may be required.

INTERIORS:

The interiors are entirely original and offer an incredible testament to the vehicle’s history. An exceptionally valuable detail is represented by the door panels, where the factory protective cellophane is still present. The cabin preserves the understated luxury and the quality of materials typical of Lancia production of the era, maintaining an excellent state of preservation.

DOCUMENTATION:

The car’s history is clear, having been purchased by the first and only owner, born in 1907. The odometer reads about 78,000 km, which are presumed to be actual. The car was deregistered in 1989 and is currently without documents, but retains its prestigious original black plates. For re-registration in Italy it will be necessary to follow the ASI administrative procedure for issuing a new registration document and the subsequent ministerial inspection.

PICK-UP:

The car is sold as-is and pickup is at the buyer’s expense. For export, note that the vehicle is already deregistered from the Public Registry but will be delivered without a valid roadworthiness certificate. Prospective foreign buyers are advised to inquire in advance with their country’s authorities about the procedures for registering as a historic vehicle.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

This Lancia Flavia 1800 is a mechanical rarity that combines the pleasure of driving a boxer-engine car with the refinement of steering-wheel gearshift. It represents an unmissable opportunity for those seeking a high-level preserved example, with documented history and a production rarity that guarantees its long-term value.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle.
