I am a Ducati Tech and Ducatis have belt driven cams. The belts need to be replace every 2 years or every so many miles...
I read in another post that the betas have the same scenario, have no idea how old the belts on my car that I just picked up are, where can I get some fresh belts from?? Also looking for a place to get basic maintenance items, eg. oil filter,fuel filter air filter...ect from a trusted supplier.
thanks.

Bayless (http://www.baylessfiat.com/)
IAP (http://www.international-auto.com/)
C.Obert (http://www.fiatplus.com/)
are a few that I recommend for Lancia parts.There are many others that may be helpful here (http://www.italiancarlinks.com/index.htm#Marque%20Specific%20Sites)

I really need to get a web-links module set up again here.
I'd add Vick Autosports (vickauto.com/) (Texas) and Bruce's Parts Bin (fiatparts.com) (New Jersey) to that list.
FWIW, Bayless is in Georgia, IAP is in Virginia, and Obert is in California.
While there are some minor variances, for general engine-related parts all you need to find are the same part for the equivalent displacement FIAT engine.

Don't forget Danny.
I have 40-something vendors lested on my website, and another 15 or so to add, that have specialty items. I need to cull the list to make sure URL's haven't changed.

Since you're in Mass, you should know about Fun Imported. They're about 1/2 hour NE of Hartford. Danny is very helpful and they host events during the year.

Quickest way around my website is via the "tech" page, sort of like an index. It'll take a bit to load and you'll have to enable activex controls since I used them back when I built it. I need to do some cleanup, I just added the engine lid lift sketch I made for Darren. I have a lot of wiring diagrams, tech data manual, source books, fische all on pdf and ready to put up, I just haven't got around to it- too darn busy.
