The seller offers for sale a 1981 Lancia Beta Spider 2000, a stylish and rare convertible from the renowned Italian marque. This vehicle has undergone a body restoration by a professional shop in 2022, with the metalwork stripped to the base and all weak or rusted areas replaced. The restoration included a respray in the factory-original color, with a matching new windshield installed. The underside and subframe have been treated, ensuring long-term durability.
Mechanically, the car features its original 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, which was rebuilt in 2016, alongside major updates such as a new timing belt, fuel pump, and carburetor rebuild. Additional recent upgrades include a new thermostat, battery, and exhaust system components. The braking system, clutch, and cooling system have been overhauled, making the car mechanically solid.
The interior features new racing-style seats and a Nardi steering wheel (original seats and steering wheel are included). The convertible roof and targa section have been newly upholstered, and door and trunk seals have been replaced to ensure a proper fit and finish.
The Lancia Beta Spider, designed by Pininfarina and built by Zagato, offers a unique blend of Italian craftsmanship and open-air motoring. Its innovative targa-top design and strong performance from the Beta’s platform have made it a desirable classic for collectors and enthusiasts.
