1968 Lancia Fulvia HF Rally 1600
A Lancia Fulvia originally built as a standard 1.3-litre road car and converted to rally specification in 2017. The conversion involved fitting a 1,600cc engine with twin Weber carburettors, Arrow connecting rods, a balanced crankshaft, and a Group 4 exhaust manifold, alongside an HF bodyshell with aluminium panels, roll cage, and stripped interior. Subsequently maintained by a dedicated in-house mechanic and dyno-tested by Stanton Motorsports, it represents a competition-ready example of the model that secured Lancia's first World Rally Championship title in 1972.
