Title: Info wanted on Trevi Post by: peteracs on 04 September, 2020, 10:03:56 PM Hi All
I received an email for information re the Trevi as follows, I can provide email address if you have any relevant info. Peter Original email Thank you very much. I know someone who is (quietly) mad keen on Trevis, and they commented recently there is practically nothing available about its history, so I’d quite like to find something for them. My research has unearthed who designed the dashboard and that there was a twin-engined version, but little beyond that. I would think the Trevi was developed on a tight budget and wasn’t a huge seller, but there’s surprisingly little background information. If anyone does know anything more, I’d be very grateful to receive further details. All the best, Charles. Also I’ve been searching for some information about the Lancia Trevi - initial drawings, prototype pictures - that sort of thing. Would you know if anyone has such information? I’ve tried contacting FCA Heritage in Italy, but drew a blank. I also tried contacting your Club Secretary, but got a bounce-back to my email. If you could help me, I’d greatly appreciate it. Best regards, Charles Kirk Loughborough Title: Re: Info wanted on Trevi Post by: mikeC on 05 September, 2020, 07:44:50 AM Several publicity photos on eBay here, including Volumex and Bimotore:

Even the dashboard wasn't unique as it went in to last series of conventionally shaped Beta saloons. The seats are remarkably comfortable though for something that looks as flat as a park bench.

If he's after deep detail then might make sense tracking down a service manual or other technical info (e.g. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lancia-Beta-Trevi-Wiring-Diagram-Book/254711424035 (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lancia-Beta-Trevi-Wiring-Diagram-Book/254711424035)). I don't know if the club librarian can help in that respect. |
