This vehicle was recently restored for an amount of over R 40 000,- by Cape Towns leading Lancia restorer.Find in the following examples of truly outstanding workmanship. |  |
The steering system: For a tigher grip it was obviously decided to remove the rubber disc coupling for the steering box. |  |
However, it must have felt a bit too tight, as now the bolts have been loosened, now the steering has sufficient play that the car requires the full width of the road. |  |
The brake system was taken from some other undisclosed car |  |
even though it does produce some hydraulic pressure,
not much is trying to stop the car on the road |  |
The passengers door does open, the doorgap is set by the famous south african even resource distribution |
 |
the same system was tried on the drivers side, which unfortunatily like with its bigger brother lead to some collateral damage. |  |
Precise door gap |

 |
Special attention was given to the interior, the provenance of the seats is unknown, |  |
but the economically relocated light switches are partially from a Lancia Beta |
 |
Dashboard and door trims are completely handmade. |
 |
The color of the wood is spot on, something that can hardly be said of the shape. |
 |
Which becomes apparent if we see how the dashboard joins to the A-Pillar. |
 |
Last not least, we can see, that by firmly wedging the door in its lower corner the bodyshell is given additional strenghening. |
