Lancia “Fulvia 1.3 S”, 1975<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Fulvia Coup\u00e9\u00a0<\/strong>was launched at the 1965<\/strong> Geneva Motor Show, destined to be a great commercial and racing success. The elegant and streamlined body was signed by Piero Castagneto<\/strong>, who said to have been inspired by Riva<\/strong> motorboats. The interior is pure Lancia as well, with the real wooden dashboard and a light and roomy cockpit.
\nThe 1.3S Rallye was born in 1968<\/strong> to replace the previous 1.3. The engine was updated and the performance was better than the previous model. It will be replaced in 1970<\/strong> by the Mk2 1.3S that will be sold in a higher number thanks also to the rally success. In fact the Fulvia Coup\u00e9 had a nice handling and a sporting vocation, becoming the flagship car of the Squadra Corse Lancia.
\n<\/strong>Thanks to the Fulvia, Lancia will start its long and successful rally career, winning the Rally constructor championship<\/strong> in 1972<\/strong><\/p>\n

CURIOSITY
\n<\/strong>The Fulvia 1.3 S owned by the Museo is a peculiar version<\/strong> because of its front end, different from the standard Fulvia coup\u00e9.
\nThis car in fact came from Australia,<\/strong> where there were laws for headlamps’ height forcing Lancia to redesign the fenders to move the lights higher, modifying the front end of the car.<\/p>\n\r\n\r\n \r\n
