Up for auction in London on the Sotheby’s online auction. The only Fulvia Competizione. How cool is this. So different to any other fulvia.  https://rmsothebys.com/en/auctions/lf20/london/lots/r0064-1970-lancia-fulvia-hf-competizione/998949

It sure is something else. I notice that it has chassis no. 2279.
My S1's engine is 2279.

It appears to be built on a S1 1600 chassis, but with a 1300HF engine.

Rare, but you could buy six pretty Fulvias for that.

Not what it appears...... Chassis number is +1 from the Series but the car was shown at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1969. The engine is a 1600 (block height) but seemingly an early Var1016 based on 342 crankcase (my info is about 5-10 of these were built in 1968) prototyping  the 818540 - has standard DDHF42s, and a modern alternator but still mech fan. The front subframe is unique as it lowers the engine and does away with the transverse leaf spring in favour of coil over dampers. The satin black and pop rivet scoop and flares are ugly and later additions.

No such thing as matching numbers for Fulvias etc.

Is there a story behind the colours of the Lancia badge on the steering wheel? I've seen a key rings in those colours too.

Seems a reasonable price, certain buyers are more into the prestigious events they can attend than the car itself and this must be one of the cheapest invites available.

I was expecting "a Fulvia" so took a few seconds to work out I'd clicked the right link. Anyone logged in to read all the blurb?

Ok pleased to read Tim's story on this car, at the first look I thought it was mid engined like the Stratos prototype seen the very low nose...not for rallying then I guess.

And indeed whats the story on the two handbrake levers?

Maybe it's the control for the rear spoiler, which seems to be adjustable.  Airbrakes?Huh?

I just noticed how Strato's the front seats are...... Why the 1600HF on the dash which is Series 2 and much later....??
