    Decided to not restore the Beta Coupe, instead bought a convertible version of the same car. If anyone wants a restorable Italian coupe with a spare drivetrain and a clean CA title (not in my name), send me a PM. Must be flatbedded from Lewisville.

    I still say take it to the people in Nevada and offer to put it in their 'backyard' in exchange for some labor! :)

    That's a hot looking car, very similar to the X1/9 in my inexperienced eyes and X1/9 is one of my favorites.

    Should clean up nice! Bring it out.

    That car should be a lot roomier than a X and more practical, storage-wise. Also more wind-in-hair with the two tops off/down.

    Nice to see another Lancia around here. There don't seem to be many around DFW.

    Does it have the Lancia hot-start relay/wiring installed?

    Tillman, you will need to source the vintage Lancia magazine advertisement for the Zagato. The ad quotes the 1979 world champion Jody Schecter. "Nothing handles like a Ferrari, but the Lancia Zagato comes damn close"

    I will check my attic for you.

    I appreciate the offer, but the seller says it's a solid car. Maybe I'll call you from Oklahoma :D

    Ticket to KC == $69 one way!

    Hope you have the best of luck!

    If not, you still have my cell number? There is a large Lancia/Fiat following in Oklahoma or we could scare up a trailer down here.
