Lancia Delta Integrale HF Turbo for sale!!!

[R22B]

My god, came across this on Dirty Impreza and I'd give my testicles for the car. Such a brilliant car in its day and its full of racing pedigree.

First a short history on the Lancia Delta Integrale.

In 1988, Lancia gained 10 victories out of 11 rallies and the world title, won well before the end of the season. The Lancia Delta had won, ahead of every rival in every continent, demonstrating its unrivalled performance, reliability and durability. In all Lancia won the World Rally Championship six years in a row with the Delta Integrale. This car is the true forefather of every all wheel drive Subaru WRX and Mitsubishi Evo.

The turbocharged 2-litre Lancia 8v engine is a powerful, refined performer, generating 185bhp at 5500 rpm, it can take the car to a maximum speed of 137 mph and get it from 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in 6.5 seconds. Larger injectors provide higher power output and efficient exploitation of the fuel feed at high engine speeds. The response of a Garrett t3 turbocharger is immediate, thanks to the reduced inertia of the turbine. A highly efficient intercooler provides the driver with more power and greater reliability. The exuberant twin cam engine, however, retains commendable refinement, thanks to the inclusion of two counter-rotating balancer shafts, eliminating vibration to give superb smoothness. The engine can also run on unleaded fuel without modification.

Specs on this Lancia Delta Integrale HF- Full time all wheel drive, inter cooled Garrett T3 turbo, Weber fuel injection system. 5 speed syncromesh transmission, 185 hp. Engine is factory stock and has not been modified with only the exception of a free flow intake filter. Equivalent of 35,000 miles before engine rebuild. Approx 1500 miles on engine rebuild.

Engine was rebuilt which included new bearings, pistons, piston rings, valve guides, valve job, all internal gaskets, new timing belt and ancillary belts. Cost of this rebuild was $3500 and done by the previous owner in New York. Also has a new clutch, throw out bearing, pressure plate, exhaust gaskets, crankshaft speed sensor, engine water temp sensor, throttle opening sensor, rebuilt Marelli alternator, timing belt idler bearing and many other details which easily cost another $3000 and was done after I bought the car here in California.

This Integrale has a straight New York title listing it as a 1989 Lancia matching the VIN number on the car.

Bodywork- new PPG Anthracite grey urethane base (2 coats) with three coats of PPG clear. All Lancia and Integrale, etc. sill, B pillar, deck lid badges are new as are the full length side skirts all bought from England. Car was professionally primed/painted and the quality of the paint job is excellent. Windshield is also new. I have $3500 invested in the above.

Tires are brand new Yokohama ES100's and the car has had a four wheel alignment. Total cost of this is $650.

Interior-professionally recovered the seat upper/lower bolsters and seat backs with suede. Kept the original inserts. Only the front seats needed recovering. New headliner and turn stalks Approx $750 for all this.

$11,400 plus many hours have been invested just restoring this car and that doesn't include the price of the car before restoration. Total investment more than $13,500 that I am asking for the car. This Lancia has never been taken off road and mostly taken to car shows (Concorso Italiano where it was featured on the podium-pictured). You won't find another Integrale already in the States with a straight US title that has been restored. This car is exceptionally rare here and I prefer it go to someone who will take good care of it. I advise that you check the smog requirements for your state when considering this car.

Any questions please contact me.
