Hi,
My name is Thomas and I have an Italian car addiction. I have owned 7 Fiat X1/9s since 1983, and have just purchased my second Beta Zagato, an 82 LBZ(1st one was 13 years ago). It isn't in the greatest shape, been sitting for 10 years, but it will make for a nice driver next summer. Interior is a strong 8 of 10. Exterior is light blue metallic respray. A five footer for sure. I have a set of 14 inch Cromodora Daytona rims going on this week, should look pretty sharp. It is a Canada car, with Km odometer...which I would think should be pretty rare in these parts.
The bad news is that I have limited mechanical abilities, the good news is VERY good. I work for Matt Brannon at Midwest-Bayless Italian Auto in Columbus, Ohio, and since he purchased the Bayless Racing inventory a few months back, we have access to a pretty good inventory of Lancia parts. In addition, a team of mechanics which should be able to make small work of my project.
Looks like a great forum you have here, so I am confident I wll be wandering arond here quite a bit. Sorry about your luck!!! :D

Welcome to the forum, and congratulations on your recent purchase. Good luck with the reconditioning; at least you have a good source of parts...
