Selling a 1961 Lancia Flaminia Sport

 

The 1961 Lancia Flaminia Sport, as well as the 1960 model-year example, is often considered part of the “Series 2” Flaminia Sport line thanks to a redesigned nose configuration that gave the classic a more distinct family resemblance to the Flaminia Berlina designed by Lancia & Co. Missing were the inset headlights and sharp profile. The 1961 Lancia Flaminia Sport would offer a more traditional, conservative front end with an upright profile and traditionally placed headlights. Married with a 2.5L V6 engine and a single-carburetor setup, historians estimate that approximately 190 examples of this model were produced between 1959 and 1961. Positioned as the top-of-the-line offering from Lancia at the time, the Flaminia Sport would often sell for nearly 40 percent higher than the Berlina on export markets. During the 1962 model-year, Lancia would release a triple-carbureted version of the same 2.5L V6. These are just a few of the historical facts that make the Lancia Flaminia Sport such an interesting piece of Italian automotive history. If you’re the owner of a 1961 Lancia Flaminia Sport and are thinking about selling, you should certainly share these points of interest with buyers unfamiliar to the brand.
