Does anyone know of this bodybuilder who apparently, according to John Doyle, converted four of the last 2.8 3C LHD convertibles to RHD at the request of Lancia UK? By the time they were finished, Lancia UK had closed down.
One of the cars is in the UK, two in Australia, of which mine is one; where is the fourth one?

Yes, Riva was in Merate, right near Cernusco Lombardone where Count Johnny Lurani (who was a distant realative on my mother's side) had a home. They were a small builder, and NOT related to the boat company of the same name. I have some info on them from various FIAT and "etceterini" books. E-mail me for specifics..
