Something about myself. Really into cars and especially rally's. A dream is to drive the Roger Albert Clark rally in 5 to 10 years but do some navigational rallies/ map reading tours now for fun. Bought the Lancia as a project car to hopefully make it a rally car one day. Anybody tips?

For now just fixing leaks, trying to install a new Nardi steering wheel, new front shift rod, maybe a new stickshifter, some other repairs and am looking to redo the interior. From there on the Rallycar build can start. Anybody experience?

Welcome Olivier!

There's a lot of info on here in every area. Have a good
read. Plenty of folk around to give advice on specifics.

Good luck with your project, and please post
some pics of your car.

Hi Olivier

Welcome, that car you refer to was owned by Kevin who is on here and can hopefully provide some info on it.

Thanks for the info! Definitly would like to talk to Kevin about his old car and the upgrades he did to it.
