    Do you have or can you supply samples for patterns?

    If so call this guy. Classic Car Parts and Auto Accesories| Squadra Nuvolari

    A one off set will not be cheap. See how many other owners may want spares.


    Very cool car by the way. Used to have a Flaminia Sedan and a friend had an Aurelia Spider. Always loved Lancias of that period.

    According to a note in the LMC News Sheet of January 1996, one of the variations of the tail light on the Flaminia Zagato came from the Standard Vanguard Sportsman.

    The Flaminia parts catalog seems a bit scrambled on tail lights, and my copy only goes up through 1964 (too early for the Supersport). It shows a Lucas lens for the USA version of the Flaminia Sport (model 824.00/03/13-826.132), but does not give a Lucas part number.

    Have you tried Omicron, ClassicLancia and Rareparts in the Netherlands, Cavalitto, etc. ?

    My approach with difficult parts is to contact the usual specialists, and if they don't have stock ask if they would want to participate in producing a small custom batch. There are various ways to defray the cost of custom production, e.g. with some suppliers I've swapped parts that I've had made for other needed parts they have in stock. Rifledriver's referral seems to have particular taillight expertise.

    Thank you Brian.
    Good to know of this company if for future requirements or if partcollector.com can't actually help.
    I agree about the Lancias up to the mid 60's. The design and engineering is so unique to them. Have also had quite a few over the years. Generally not so good on power to weight ratio as Ferrari but lovely machines. Of course one can't forget how the Aurelia used to perform back in the day - the 1951 Mille Miglia, Le Mans, Targa Florio etc.

    By now the Vanguard Sportsman is probably rarer than the Flaminia Zagato!

    A friend of mine runs Scuderia Auto Nobile and specializes in Lancias. He is north of Rome and south of Ronciglione, just off the Via Cassia. He's done work for a number of different Aurelia owners.
