Title: Flaminias wanted Post by: fensaddler on 08 February, 2010, 04:12:18 PM Again for a joint feature - Pininfarina, Touring and Zagato examples. Leads and volunteers please - I'm hopeful because I know we have a number of owners/enthusiasts posting on here, I'm just not sure who has what...!
Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: ColinMarr on 08 February, 2010, 04:59:10 PM Chris,
Our President has (or maybe had!) a fabulous Zagato - Flaminia SuperSport, but I don't think he has ever visited the Forum so may not be aware of your appeal. Colin Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: stuwilson128 on 08 February, 2010, 05:53:59 PM I could be wrong, but I think the President has now sold his Flaminia SuperSport.
Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: Charles on 08 February, 2010, 06:01:55 PM Hi Guys, I have a Touring bodied 2.8 3c convertible - a right hand drive one. I would be content to put it forward but need to know when. I'm off to France for two weeks on wednesday.

I'll email the complete list of U.K. Flaminias - don't know what condition they are all in though! Diana Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: Sliding Pillar on 08 February, 2010, 07:39:42 PM Yes the president did sell the Super Sport. Here's a pic of it taken in the late eighties when I owned it photographed with other Zagato bodied Lancias for a group test for Classic & Sportscar.
Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: frankxhv773t on 15 February, 2010, 10:37:31 PM There was a lovely sedan at Covent Garden a year or so back. It should be possible to track down if you want the full set.
Frank Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: fensaddler on 16 February, 2010, 11:19:48 AM I do! I have the list of cars in the club and their owners, and I'm in the process of contacting them to see what we can pull together...
Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: frankxhv773t on 16 February, 2010, 08:40:48 PM Chris, the sedan was AAS 718, an early one in Lancia blue with the whacky internal and external rear wipers.
Good hunting. Frank Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: ColinMarr on 16 February, 2010, 10:25:08 PM Chris,
I still have contact details of all the Covent Garden cars and their then owners. Let me know what you still want. Colin Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: lee69 on 17 February, 2010, 08:00:45 PM Not much help, but while we're talking about Flaminias, there's a lovely white Coupe featured in the Flickr Lancia Automobili group : http://www.flickr.com/groups/lancia/pool/
Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: fensaddler on 17 February, 2010, 10:51:10 PM Frank - thank you, that will be a useful cross reference with the list I have. Colin, yes please, likewise as per my comments to Frank.
Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: ColinMarr on 17 February, 2010, 11:16:46 PM Chris,
I don’t think the Flaminia Sedan/ Berlina at Covent Garden is still in the same ownership. What other variants do you need? Colin Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: fensaddler on 17 February, 2010, 11:44:36 PM I'm hoping to pull together all four - Sedan, Touring, PF and Zagato - but it looks as though we have a Touring. Probably Oxon/Gloucs area, looking like March, if that helps.
Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: ColinMarr on 18 February, 2010, 11:06:27 AM Chris,
I have just sent you an off-form email with some possibilities. Colin Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: ColinMarr on 02 March, 2010, 05:51:15 PM Chris,
Just thought I should check - did you ever receive my off-forum email on 18 February, which ended with: "Let me know if any of this, or none of this helps! Good luck" Colin Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: fensaddler on 02 March, 2010, 10:01:33 PM It did, very much, and thank you! I now have commitments of both a Touring Coupe and Convertible, a PF and a Zagato. I also have a lead on a saloon, but the owner is the son of a very well known businessman and I'm a little trepidatious about ringing him... Our journalistic friend no longer owns one...

Go for it Chris, he can only say no! anyway I never had you down as a shrinking violet ;D Brian 8227 8) Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: ColinMarr on 03 March, 2010, 08:10:19 AM If the berlina is the same one I mentioned to you, then I can tell you how to approach it… see off-forum email.
Colin Title: Re: Flaminias wanted Post by: lee69 on 20 May, 2010, 09:42:39 PM I'm assuming the new set of Flaminia photos from Michael Ward are what we've been talking about above. This is a fantastic selection of images (on flickr) of 3 very beautiful cars. Scroll right from the first pic this link will take you to for the complete set.

Absolutely knocked out by those photos. I gather a great time was had by all, and I hope all three owners are as pleased with those photos as I am.
