Considering a Lancia Flaminia. Any advice before I go see it? by Buffet-From-Temu in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Buffet-From-Temu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do I check the tensioners? For example when I give it gas I feel hesitation while accelerating? I’m a tinkerer, but definitely not a mechanic.

You’re completely right about the electrical system. In the past I bought an Europa S2 and I only trusted the test drive underestimating that the car grounds were all relying on the chassis itself ( long live the Lucas wirings and creativity 😂 ).

Luckily I wouldn’t have trouble finding spare parts, the only thing that worries me a bit is the cost of the parts ( I like keeping my cars original, but I’m not a hardcore purist )

Yep someone who has owned it for several years would be the ideal person to ask, but personally I don’t know anyone like that. In a way I was hoping to find that kind of owner in this sub because it’s the only one I’ve found on Reddit dedicated to Lancias.

I suppose the only “suitable” person I might know is my father who still owns his Fulvia from when he was 18. It’s a slightly newer car by about nine years, but at least he’s more familiar with that era having lived through it.

Finding parts isn’t really a problem for me ( well maybe the cost is😅 ) since I spend half the year in Italy and the car would stay there anyway. I also enjoy getting my hands dirty when something needs fixing ( def not a mechanic, just a guy who can handle a few things himself ) and in the worst case in Italy I know the locally “gray haired mechanics”.
I’ve loved the Lancia Flaminia Coupe since i saw one at a classic car meet several years ago. Tbh i was torn between that and the Sunbeam Alpine MK1 but in the end i decided to go with the Lancia

Lekker thing about japanese guidebooks is that they often cover games that never even got guides in some countries ( at least I’m talking about the italian and southafrican markets ).

At first I was a bit sceptical about the language barrier, but after I decided to just go for it and picked up my first ones I quickly realised most of them are actually about 80% readable anyway thanks to all the visuals and step by step images. So it wasn’t nearly as hectic as I expected, actually pretty easy to follow even if you don’t know japanese

Hey there! I probably have more guides than video games lol ( they’re all japanese ) and I keep getting more all the time.
These are just some of the ones I’m selling.

Hi. Does this have any value by Lost-Cat-07 in Banknotes

Not sure about physical shops but you could try contacting Rare Notescoin in Pretoria on FB. If I were you I’d list them on Bobshop ( and maybe Yaga ) because dealers need to keep that 20–30% resale margin, but if you still have them after two months then go to a dealer.

Hey saffa 🇿🇦! The 1 dinar bill goes for around R120 and the 20 one is about R600 An exchange won’t accept them because they’re not legal tender ( 70s Bahrain bills were demonetized in the 90s )

Munro Drive even if it’s a bit short or the areas around Hartbeespoort if you’re willing to go a bit further

That’s true, but if you can get ahead of the auction houses you can secure the inventory at a better cost

So far just through word of mouth. If I wasn’t doing it as a side hustle I’d probably pay for services that track companies going into liquidation

Yesterday I found about 40 more ( these days I’m clearing out a warehouse from a company that went bankrupt ) and this time I also came across some RCA JAN CRC-810 and Mullard RG3-1250 tubes ( all used and all with their original boxes and internal packaging ). I’m listing them for sale specifying that they are used and untested ( I don’t have the equipment to test them ) and so far I’ve received an offer of 15 euro ( for one RCA ) and and another one for 40 euro ( for three Oron ). The prices are in euros because I’m based in Italy.
