Hi Everyone,

This is a good looking forum. I am new to this website and wanted to know if anyone knows any information or collectors of the older Appia cars. Mine is a 1959 Appia convertible that needs help. Any information would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hello,
Yes this is a very good forum, however the Appia fans have not found it yet - welcome number 1.
www.viva-lancia.com is the next best thing and has specific categories for most models.

Keep in touch here though !

I'm really happy to have our first Appia owner on board. I'd, personally, love to have an Appia and hope to someday.

As with ANY model Lancia, I'll be happy to set up a forum specific to the Appia for you. You can even be the moderator if you like!

Again, welcome.

Regards,

I owned a 1959 Vignale covertible in the early '70's in San Diego, CA. Just woondering if it's still around. I had to sell it due to moving across the country and still regret it. It left me with a newly rebuilt engine and many, many spares. I remember crying as it was trucked away on a flatbed.

Drop Don Cross an email here in the UK, he runs The Appia Consortium, his email is doncross@lineone.net a lot of Appai owners from around the World belong to the Appai Consortium and is a great source of spares and information, Don also has a number of Appia's in the family.
The first 2 photos & the last 2 were taken at the UK Lancia Motor Club "Lancia 100," held last September at Covent Garden in London, the Berlina in the centre photo was taken at the Lancia Motor Club Stand at the NEC in Birmingham November 2006, the Maroon coloured Berlina belongs to Don.
Best Regards.

Dave,

Is it a series 1 or 2 sedan? I could be interested. I've always liked those.

Of course, I'd have to sell one of the other cars to make room first.

Can you find out a little info (especially rust) and maybe post a pic or something?

Thanks,

He surfs the net but doesn't type. He is hosting party next weekend. Will try to remember to take my camera.

Hello all!
I am an Appia fan and proud owner of a 3rd series sedan. It is now 98% restored and I have shown it in a few shows here in California. I love the little car, and I have driven it many miles, all without a problem. Great little cars. I sure would like a convertable however!
