1972 Lancia Fulvia. Montclair, N.J.

 

From Jonathan Welsh: "I love the slender roof pillars and lovely overhangs on this model.
Not many Lancias made it to the U.S., where sports-car fans seem to consider Alfa Romeos exotic enough. Fulvias had front-wheel drive and narrow-angle V4 engines ranging from 1.1 to 1.6 liters. Tiny! Sufficiently strong to win the world rally championship in '72, though.
The owner of this restored coupe said he found it in Idaho a few years ago. He said the only other one for sale at the time was in the Netherlands. Buy local."
