Morning all.

Not my usual corner of PH but I'm on an inspiration hunt.

My uncle, who after years of Citroën and Panhard has been won over by some Italian flair.

He has bought the below lancia and I am looking for something on this theme for an Xmas gift. Comedy and genuine suggestions welcome. So far we are stuck on a pot of waxoyl a toolkit and a bottle of beer moretti.

He's already got lancia subscription. And plenty of AA thanks to the classic Citroën. smile

Is there anything unique about this car that is worthy of a book /info type gift. Or maybe I should go down the pi55 taking route.

Is thete a Haynes manual ? Or something more Italian in its place?

Is it this engine that expensively spits out the cambelt when the engine is started with the steering on full lock?

Have you looked at http://www.automobilia.nl/en/lancia/

Their service is excellent and postage reasonable!

Thanks. Nice site that. Not much for the Gamma model. But the keyring will certainly start off ideas.

There's a good book on "Lancia Sporting Coupes" by Brian Long. The the Gamma coupe is covered albeit briefly.


But it covers a lot of other Lancia coupes as well, then the brand starts to get under your skin and you want more.
