Lancia Flavia 1800 coupe restoration

[Michael Findlay]

I have recently started on the restoration of two Flavia coupes, both early model 1800s, single carb and strip speedometer. I am looking for the following parts for a RHD car and have approached various suppliers and individuals who may also view this forum from time to time. If anyone else can help with either parts or advice, I would be grateful to hear back. Also, has anyone used Reoriginals for a set of rubber mats for the Flavia coupe? They have them listed on the site but no reply to enquiries as yet. Here is the list as it stands...

Passenger (left side) seat
Driver's side door glass and internal frames
Driver's side rear quarter light and fixings
Driver's door exterior handle
Passenger's side door glass and internal frames
Passenger's side rear quarter light and fixings
Rear bumper
Boot external handle
Trim from rear wing top seam (both sides)
Oil cooler
Air cleaner chamber
Pininfarina badges from lower wing
Boot script

Both cars have cracked front screens and I am looking for replacements for these with seals also.

Kind regards

Re-Originals are pretty decent folks. Their followthrough can sometimes need a bit of nagging, but they are OK.

I believe their mats come from Cicognani in Italy, who has remade all the mats for these older Lancias. The mats (I have a set in my Aurelia) are a bit heavier than original, but then again - where are you going to find an alternative? They are much nicer than carpets.

Thanks Geoff. I agree about the mats as they were particular to Lancia at the time and have an interesting 'period' quality. I am glad I did not display my ignorance and ask for a carpet set although I understand most owners have gone this way. An overmat in the foot wells the same colour as the seat material would be a fair compromise I guess. I have run across Cicognani before as suppliers of Alfa reproduction rubber so I should have thought of them.

So, to elaborate on this thread even more, has anyone attempted to match the velour fabric used on 60s Lancias? Dark blue in my case.
