Lancia was Re: Dreadscott's latest rally adventure

[boisfort@myhome.net (Decker)]

    You boys talking about Lancias take me back to the 60's when I owned and
drove and loved my Lancia Arealia Gran Tourismo Spyder It had an alloy V 6
and clutch in the front and Porsche license transaxle in the rear. It
wouldn't be much but an antique today but in the mid 60's it was sure a fun
car on the back roads of Northern California.
