A related observation.
If you search for 'motore lancia' on ebay.it, there are currently 3 Flaminia engines for sale for about 1,000 Euros each. That's the asking price, so quite possibly could be bought for less.
Now that Flaminia prices are at a significantly higher level (approx. 30-50% of the equivalent Aurelia - with the Zagato bodied Sport standing in for the B24...) it strikes me as odd that Flam engines seem to cost about 15% of the equivalent Aurelia.
Watch out for the market correction!
You heard it here first...
I see there is a flaminia 2.8 sport engine+gearrbox etc in C+SC mag priced at €15K with brakes.richard
