    Mario Zoelch was an engineer from Bavaria, Germany, who lived in the mid 60s in Northern Italy.
    He owned some very interesting cars like Alfa Romeo 1900, Ferrari 250PF and Maserati 3500GT Spyder Vignale.For a short period he also owned this Lancia Spider with Bozen-registration BS 31194.

    Sorry Walter, but spider is a term connected with the 1955 specimen only, the Zoelch's car is a 1957-58 specimen, so the proper term is convertible.

    This is a 1958 specimen, expressly built for the US market.
    The main differences are: bumper with overrider, rear lights, speedometer in Mph.

    Those rear lights are not attractive. A lampectomy is in order.

    I know, but those were the specifications by the US road rules.

    If you are going for a little crazy I think they would looked great very long with points on the ends.
