For sure could be tempted to buy for LHD converting and replacing with 3.2 engine

..Oops forget I got one in order!!

It's perfectly feasable to convert this car to LHD should the new owner want to go that route but the work involved isn't straight forward involving a new dash, pedal assembly, centre tunnel, rear bulkhead (unless it's fully flat - can't remember!), seats moving slightly across the floorpan and upper seat belt mounts repositioning. A new steering rack will be needed and also moving slightly across it's mountings. If anyone considers going that route I'd suggest a change of dash style to Group 4 would be worthwhile.

In terms of registration the logbook may say Lancia but if it's still described as a Beta that may cause issues. It'll certainly need to be updated to reflect the new engine number and capacity and I suggest that's the vendor's responsibility to deal with before it's sold on.

Caveat Emptor!

Going to watch this one, I suspect that it'll sell quickly, it ought to be UK road tax exempt now too. It may also be one that could be imported direct to the USA due to age of registration?

What does 'The gearbox also checked and everything done to the highest of standards,and is mated to a Ferrari 250 Gto drivetrain/gearchange' mean??

The gear change quadrant is a Ferrari one. Not sure if it's 250GTO but if I saw picture of it I could compare it to the mental picture I have from 20 minutes as a passenger at Aintree eace circuit back in 1995 in Steve Pilkington's 1963 250 GTO...

Name dropping? Moi?

Believe YBL2T is still registered as a Lancia Beta. It may need an IVA test if an MOT tester gets picky?
