Positive camber and over tyred, still like it though.

Lancia chopped the tops off 2 or 3 Fulvia 1.6HFs and entered them in the Targa Florio sometime in the late ’60s / early 70s. From memory they did not look this “aggressive” – they were rather odd things, looked as if they had just been driven under a 3 foot high barrier at speed!!

Yes - they were known as 'F&M Specials' - F&M 2 was more brutal looking & was the likely inspiration.

The car pictured above is a 'replica' built by Vere Lancia in the Netherlands - for sale at Silverstone Auctions at the NEC next month.

Sorry. Like Neil I’ve failed to find the non Porsche vid of the day thread, so forgive me posting this here.

With a new lockdown some of you may have some extra downtime to have a chance to see this. I enjoyed it and thought it a very frank car guy chat.
