Mutation: 1961 Lancia Flaminia Convertibile 2.5 by Touring

ScreenShot004

This 1961 Flaminia Touring Convertibile has been modified in the past in a way never seen before. Basically all the front end has been elongated like if someone pull it out with some kind of magnetic force: both the grill surround and headlights protrude of about half foot from what, once, has been the original front end edge. The oddest thing is that such modification seems not an home made job but it seems done by a professional hand.

Apart form such unique modification, this car is a proper barn find: for sure this car is liyng in a garage since many years, and it seems in quite good shape although it need a ground-up restoration which is usually expensive, much expensive on these cars made by Touring.

Also the dashboard features a woodgrain trim which we really don’t know if it’s an optional request or a custom made trim: it seem properly done and it’s not easy to make it with all those curves. Find this oddity for sale here in Plaistow, NH, with bidding at $15,100 and reserve not met.
