Lately it’s not easy to find interesting classic cars for sale, especially for picky guys like we are. However, luckily someone, many years ago, thought to leave cars like this in a barn, just to let them being discovered many years later. This 1962 Appia cabriolet was one of the few made by Vignale which… Read More Hibernated lady: 1962 lancia Appia Cabriolet by Vignale
Update, same day: This car has gone fast, sometimes the bird must be even earlier… When the Appia came out, many coachbuilders made a lot of style exercises on this platform, the most famous of them were for sure Pininfarina and Vignale: The Pininfarina coupè has for sure a sleeker line than this car which, however, still… Read More Two doors only: 1960 Lancia Appia Coupé By Vignale
The seller of this little racer has posted a photo of a Zagato bodied lancia Formula Junior: in our opinion that photo has nothing to do with the car auctioned. However it could be really a Dagrada racecar: Angelo Dagrada began to built these cars using a Lancia Appia 1100 engine with an head completely… Read More Racecar trivia: 1959 Lancia Dagrada Formula Junior
The seller says that this is a rare find in the U.S., and we agree with him. These were not officially imported in the U.S.A. and even then, they would have be too expensive, especially if compared with the huge american sedan competitors. However, this car need more than some work: the seller sasy that… Read More Matt black berlina: 1959 Lancia Appia Series II
Few words by the seller for describing this car (chassis #2890) which looks in almost desperate conditions. Indeed, if the body of this car wouldn’t be made in aluminium, at this point we would see just a pile of rust. But, as we all know, aluminium doesn’t rust but the steel floors do: it could… Read More Clown face: 1959 Lancia Appia GTE by Zagato
The seller must be a Lancia Appia nut, however he’s now oriented in parting with his two Appia Convertibile: a 1959 without title and a 1961 which is more complete than the other one. Actually, as the seller says, you can make only one car from these two as one lacks of too many parts,… Read More Two is better than one: 1959/61 Lancia Appia Convertibile by Vignale
This yellow Appia GTE (chassis 81203-5076) is said to have been fully restored in 2004, including mechanical parts which have been overhauled by the actual seller. It was imported in UK from Holland (both countries have a special feeling with classic Lancia). This doesn’t seem a concours-level restored car but it actually looks good: we don’t… Read More Not so expensive: 1961 Lancia Appia GTE by Zagato
The Lancia Appia coupé was built on the chassis of the Appia 3rd series, starting from 1959. The previous series had different taillights but it was not much different from this car, especially the slanting lines of the roof were the same. Many don’t know that this series was built in the Viotti factory as… Read More Not many around: 1962 Lancia Appia Coupé by Pininfarina
The seller doesn’t specify the year of this stunning Appia Zagato but, because it says that this car is a “passo corto” (s.w.b.), we can deduce that this car is at least from 1961, the first production year of this model. The red – perfect – paint should be the “Rosso Arcoveggio” shade which perfectly… Read More Amadori equipped: 1961 Lancia Appia Sport “Passo corto” by Zagato
This week we have here another delivery van: a 1957 Lancia Appia “Furgoncino”. These cars were often set up in this way to be sold to various companies, especially mechanics-related producers and distributors. These vans were not built by coachbuilders but by Lancia factory. They had a lower power than the sedan version, but a… Read More Style delivery: 1957 Lancia Appia C80S 2nd series
