Hi-

My name is David and I just bought an 81 Lancia Beta Zagato Spyder.  I fell in love with a red Beta Coupe in 1990; it only took me 30 years to get around to having one.

My other car is a 67 MGBGT.

I look forward to visiting, learning and helping.

Hi Dave

Welcome to the forum, photos of your car would be interesting!

You will find a lot of useful information here should you need it.

Welcome Dave - which bit of the US ? East Coast gives a lot of options!

[DaveFrick]

Of course that would be helpful!  I am in MD.

I am very excited to have my first Beta and was really happy to find this site.

Here is a pic of my car taken by the prior owner.  It should be here in about three weeks.

Wow, nice! ..and the previous owner dispensed with the oversized bumpers!

Welcome Dave, you'll get alot of help and find interesting things on here.

( I have a hard time staying off it

All the best Sandro

I like the matching white wheels. Sets it off nicely.

I was going to say you should look out for some euro-spec bumpers but I see you've beaten me to it!

If you've got a square registration plate on the back bumpers are available with a cut out to suit. They do come up on e-bay every so often but you may have to be patient as I think the bumpers are different widths per model - so a rear coupe one may not fit a spider.  Have a search on the forum you may well find out.

If you get one with damaged rubbers they also come up every occasionally. I think the Euro spec ones were used in Australia and South Africa too so worth talking to Felix at Lancia.co.za
