A little about the

Zagato-Built and Pininfarina-Designed

Fiat Lancia Zagato Beta Spyder:

THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN CALIFORNIA FOR MOST OR ALL OF IT'S LIFE. IT IS VERY PRESENTABLE, PREVIOUSLY OWNED BY A CALIFORNIA PHYSICIAN. IT IS AND WAS WELL TAKEN CARE OF. NEW BATTERY, NEW TARGA TOP, NEW ALTERNATOR, NEW IGNITION SYSTEM AND MUCH MORE. OVER $2000 PUT INTO THIS VEHICLE IN THE PAST TWO YEARS ALONE. IT WILL HAVE THE TYPICAL SCRATCHES, DINGS, DENTS, SCUFFS, AND PAINT FADE THAT ONE WOULD EXPECT FROM A ITALIAN SPORTS CAR, CIRCA 1981. THE INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR ARE BETTER THAN MOST OF THE LANCIAS OF THIS AGE, AS IS THE UNDERCARRIAGE AND ENGINE COMPARTMENT. LOTS OF COMFORTS IN THIS ITALIAN SPORTS CAR INCLUDING: A 2 + 2 SEATING SET UP; LEATHER SEATING WHICH IS IN VERY GOOD SHAPE, THE FOLDING BACK REAR TOP AND TARGA TOP. TOGETHER WITH THE WIND IN YOUR HAIR DRIVING THIS RARE ITALIAN CLASSIC THAT IS COMMANDING HIGH PRICES WORLDWIDE!

The limited production Zagato was only built for the US market and they only made a limited number of Zagatos that year being a total of just 75 cars.Now, the special edition only came in black with the gold stripes all around car and gold stripes on the wheels. So, likely a respray during its life but I actually like the, "Low Profile" look. Add the gold pinstripes and give it some bling or cool just as it is.
THE VEHICLE IS LOCATED IN STATELINE, NEVADA, 60 MILESFROM THE RENO/TAHOE AIRPORT. THERE IS A SHUTTLE ABOUT EVERY 90 MINUTES FROM THE AIRPORT TO OUR LOCATION. WE ARE ALSO ABOUT 95 MILESFROM SACRAMENTO AND THERE ARE REGULAR SHUTTLESFROM SACRAMENTO TO HERE. THE VEHICLE HAS A CLEAR TITLE AND RELATED PAPERWORK. IT CAN BE PICKED UP ANY DAY OR STOREDFOR AS LONG AS NEEDED. I CAN ALSO ASSIST TO GET THE VEHICLE TO THE DOCKS TO BE SHIPPED OVERSEAS TO AUSTRALIA, ENGLAND, GERMANY, OR NEW ZEALAND. PLEASE SEE OUR OTHER AUCTIONS AND THANK YOU!
