Flavia Vignale info.

[GREENYORKIE]

Hi all, some advice please. Does anyone have a sketch or a photo of the securing arrangement for the hard top to the rear of the doors? Also a source of the rubber seal between the hardtop and the car body.
David.

Thanks for that Len, a useful site.They do show a seal which they list as for the soft top frame which looks more like what we are after,just a pity they are in the USA.The other seals shown are a useful guide.Now I just need info. on the roof clamping arrangement.
Cheers,
David.

I am sometimes accused of being a hoarder, but in my defence I usually say that it’s only the best of stuff that I keep and even if it looks chaotic, I can usually lay my hands on it. Your post reminded me that in 1985 I had a similar request from a fellow Vignale owner who lived in Perth, Western Australia - a High Court Judge no less. I duly made some sketches of both the main side clamps and the ones that go to the boot space. He had clamps made from these sketches and they worked! Just as well I kept the original sketches - I hope they work for you!

For the rubber seal source, the italian supplier used by the American company is Cicognani.
Have a look at: http://www.cicognaniguarnizioni.it/Lancia-132/flavia-convertibile-132-g65

Most resellers have the same source of supply, but sometimes different pricing, also club rebates.
