1963 Lancia Flaminia GT 2.5 3C
UTAC Millbrook | Milton Keynes, Bedfordshire 55000 - 65000 Registration No: AJM 206A Chassis No: 824.10.3435 MOT: Exempt � 2.5 Litre triple-Weber fed 3C variant � Converted to right-hand drive during the 1990s � Regarded as the best handling GT car of its time � Offered with a comprehensive history file dating back to its import to the UK in the 1990s, with much work performed by Omicron Engineering � Presented with matching engine and chassis numbers Introduced at the Turin Auto Show in 1957, Lancia�s Flaminia line was the successor to the ground-breaking Aurelia. The Flaminia inherited the Aurelia�s revolutionary DeVirgilio-designed V6 and rear-mounted transaxle, but the earlier model�s sliding pillar front suspension was replaced by a more modern unequal-length double-wishbone front suspension and the V6's stroke was decreased while the bore sizes increased for higher revving. The Flaminia platform was so excellent that it was subject to a number of coachbuilt designs to complement the factory Pinin Farina offering from the likes of Zagato for the 'Sport', Pinin Farina themselves for the 'Coup�' and 'Speciale' and of course Carozzeria Touring for the 'GT' and 'GTL' models. The very rakishly designed Carrozzeria Touring 'GT' first appeared in 1959 and was constructed with an attractive Aluminium 'Superleggera' body. Available in both Coup� and Convertible forms, the GT featured ultra modern twin headlights, finned rear wings and a shortened wheelbase to be proportionally more satisfying as a two seater. The early cars were powered by the 2,458cc version of the V6 engine fed by a Solex Carburettor, which was considerably 'hotted up' for the GT and produced 117hp - an increase of 16hp over the more pedestrian Berlina.
