Beta 1600 Coupe, first pictures from Ljubljana

[sharknose]

Here are some my pictures from my beta 1600 coupe, taken in Ljubljana one week ago. The car has passed the MOT without problems, i allready have a oldtimer certificate, now i must pay insurance and register the car. I hope that i will get the car by the end of next week ... I hope that i will get the small licence plate on the front. I must make a special request to get such small plate ... The wheels are from FPS (i was hoping that Crommodora made them, like on my first beta ...), front lights are Carello, for now i couldn't see the carburator (Weber or Solex?), the horn ain't original ... The car seems to be sprayed with some rust protection years ago, that is wisible in the motor bay, because it doesn't seem pretty, but there ain't rust ... Then the car will go to my mechanic (we hang on together for about 30 years, from the times of my first beta). He is a Lancia/FIAT guy with thesis that has a licence plate LJ-Lancia, thema 8.32, kappa coupe (his wife) and a new restoration project (FIAT 124 spider 1600) ... So my car will be in good hands to change the cam belt and make samo good inspection and service ...

Good motoring to all beta lovers. Viva Lancia! Marko

Congratulations, that's really beautiful!
Horn looks original to me for this series.

Good luck and lots of fun with your new Beta

Thanks a lot 'BetaFast' for your kind words and admiration. Well the first beta 1300 coupe didn't have that horn, so i was thinking that such horns ain't original ... I still have a lot to learn about betas ...

Have a nice day ... Marko
