Back on the road again - Lancia HPE Volumex

[shouldbworking]

Newly professionally restored from a 6 year hibernation but now back on the road! here we are...







Not much left by the professionals for me to do, but i shall have fun tinkering just the same. This will be my daily transport...

and im knackered right now so cant type more

[Richair]

That looks lovely! Can't be many of these left now?

Any chance of some engine bay pics? Im guessing the bulge conceals a nice 'charger

[TCEvo]

Very nice - don't see many of those any more & pleased to see another Lancia this week.

[MJK 24]

Well done that man

Have you any photos of the restoration you could post up> Kinda like a mini blog from rags to riches!

[jimmyjam]

Fantastic, I'd really love an HPE. Well done

[bob1179]

Very very nice

My grandad had a blue 'Y' plate one was I was a young lad. I used to love going out in it.

I quite fancy one myself now!

What about some 'before' pics so we can see the extent of the work done? (or some 'during' pics would be interesting...)

Doesnt look too bad in the before pics but proved to hide a multitude of sins

That looks lovely. Have a soft spot for these as my father had a bright red one when I was little. Sadly it had to go to make way for a Volvo 265 wagon when my sisters were born.

Their site appears to be down at the moment, best I can suggest is using google 'lancisti my hpe vx resto begins' and look at the cached pages till its back up.

Edit : Appears to be back up now!
