Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

The 1981 Le Mans Group 5 class winner driven by Eddie Cheever Michele Alboreto Carlo Facetti. Filthy everywhere, neglected, tired and crudely and thickly painted over sometimes cracked bodywork. Unused since 1981 apparently, it is a cool piece but it needs absolutely everything.

Market commentary

This is absolutely everything this poor old slug could command, and a tribute to the appeal of its history and rare Lancia racing heritage in the face of sad maintenance and care. Put back in competent racing condition is this Lancia worth over a half million bucks Not very likely.
