In 1962 I was 16 years old and my family drove down to Florence from Hamburg in our Mercedes 220 S fintail. Once in Italy I saw cars never seen in Germany before, like all of the Lancias. One more beautiful than the other, plus they dared to race my dad in our Mercedes. He told me that those cars have the same brilliant engineering and built quality than his car! Now he never said that about any other cars! Sorry to see them go....
The Fin Tail Mercedes.. ah so classic. I love the look of it. Perhaps the only car with fin tail that I like. Ironic since fin tail was popularized by American cars, but nothing looks better than in 220S.
This was Lancia’s problem in the 1960s, it was building Fiat-sized cars to Mercedes quality and therefore could not make a profit.
In 1969 Lancia was purchased by Fiat and its quality was lowered to Fiat’s level.
My mother had a fintail 200 MB; a 1966 or 67 model. She hated the color blue and automatics, but loved the car in spite of that. I drove it and was amazed at how solid and controllable it was while being comfortable.
Little extra value to the car: the plates say TO, which means Torino (Turin), which is the original birthplace of Lancia cars.
And these plates are even hard to find in Italy.
Jay appreciates every classic car for what it is, regardless of performance.
He is a true car enthusiast.
What a neat car. These videos of stock cars are so much better than the videos showing yet another expensive and overdone resto-mod vehicle that barely resembles what rolled off the assembly line.
I don't mind some of the resto-mods made from trashed cars, but it's definitely great to see an 'as it was' car.
Yes, well put.
Couldn't agree more!
You shoulda seen what I did to my marriage.....
Both kinds of cars are great.
It's an old Lancia. How could someone not love that?
It's a piece of junk.
Andrew Piatek Tua sorella
@@dvamateur what a rude and misinformed comment.
@@valentinerichardbarker8765 As the saying goes, one man's trash is another man's treasure. To me personally, this Lancia is a total piece of junk. For others, it might be desirable. For each their own.
@@dvamateur some people know what it is, you do not so you just spit poison in your ignorance.
I’m not sure how big or “top of the line” this car would have seemed in Europe at the time. It was the smallest car Lancia made in 1960. The Flavia and Flaminia were both bigger, more expensive and powerful cars. The Appia was replaced by the Fulvia, which was also small. This is essentially the 3-Series of the Lancia line, decades before the 3-Series became a thing.
Exactly, the Appia was considered a small luxury car, and this coupé is a rare coach built version made by Vignale to a Michelotti design. In 1960 Lancia was already making the Flavia, 1500/1800 flat 4 boxer engined 6 seater saloon or 4 seat coupé with front wheel drive and disc brakes all round, and still making the big Flaminia with the 2800 V6 derived from that of the previous Aurelia.
Please include more engine start ups. It's neat to hear when they go out for a test drive.
lawnmowerdude True. That was a nice characteristic of the older videos.
Yes!
you dont even know how to work a shifter
I agree. That’s been one of the things missing from many of Jay’s videos.
I bet they do shoot all the start ups, but for one reason or another some get edited out.
“ absolutely I’d love to take you for a ride …..” next scene Jays driving 😂
Jay Leno should make a call to FCA to Save Lancia.
It is so sad to see such a luxurious sportive brand dying.

Lancia is lucky to have survived at all .
Andrew Gardener La Lancia è morta da anni
Just one fact, the Agnelli family, owners of the Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Lancia and many others brands, had the Italian automotive monopoly for more than 100 years and received huge government subsidies, despite which it was able (unable) to suffer significant financial crises in its history an to let die ( without validly replacing them) many successful models of these brands. Evidently they are ONLY interested in personal profit.
I was in Italy a couple years ago and I saw a Lancia - it was a Chrysler 300 with a different badge. If that’s all Lancia is at this point it’s not worth saving.
@@Sashazur
I never knew that, but I felt compelled to search a little, and I found out that Lancia has been under the Fiat umbrella since 1969, and still more recently exists under Fiat Chrysler. I think the car you're referring to as a rebadged Chrysler 300 is the Lancia Thema. But yeah, nothing about Lancia is Lancia... It's just Chrysler Fiat for the last few years.
A car unmolested, Jay is about to have a wet dream on us!
lol, egads
Jay "Can we take this for a ride?"
Scott "Absolutely. I'd love to take you for a ride"
Jay drives the car...
I caught that too. 😁
I had a 1975 Lancia Beta coupe. It was pretty rusty when I got it. But with the DOHC transverse 4 cylinder, manual transmission and front wheel drive, it was a joy to drive.
I loved the sound of the exhaust.
Your right in what you say it is History. We are not "just" car collectors, we are Historians. Saving history one car at a time.
when he opened the trunk a little Italian mouse jumped out and ran across the floor, next stop, Jay's Maserati
The high-performance cars are fun, but these old cars from Italy idle so sweet. They hum as they cruise along!
Lancias from the 50s and 60s are some of the best cars ever made.
Ya, right!...and you are gonna be a billionaire next week.
wendell worth mmhm, smart comment right here. Absolutely brilliant.
I HAVE to meet Jay at least once in my life. I grew up watching him with my mom but I’ve been here on UA-cam and on TV to watch Jay Leno’s Garage for a long time. I’m not one to freak out about another human being but damn he just seems so chill and nice. There’s no collection like Jay’s. There’s no one else that has had the crazy experiences he’s had. I can’t imagine the stories. I’d do so much just to pick his brain. There’s no one like Jay... Original and unrestored. Lol
Jay Leno - originator of the word "welcmanother."
Jay thanks so much for sharing your passion of these vehicles with us on UA-cam. It's awesome that you take the time to make these videos and put them on a medium that we can veiw with out charge.
So glad you left in the clip of the car starting in the garage. This is a small detail that gets left out of a lot of videos but it is my favorite part.
I've rebuild a lot of Lancias . Great video.... Keep them original!!
What a find, Lancia always seem to have put a lot of thought into the design of their cars, these original unrestored
postings are one of the most fascinating elements of the JLG on line site.
badass Lancia. five out of five !
Lancia is one of very favorite Automakers with my favorite history and collection of past models. Forza Lancia
Henri Toivonen and Lancia Delta's were so fast that the Lancia brand in the 1980's was an amazing company putting out an amazing product. As recently as the late 1980's you could get really passionate about their products.
Dear Mr. Jay, this is the kind of video I wait all week off. I understand there is probably over a 100 man hours into this video & the expense, but for my vote make your videos as long as possible PLEASE. You & the old cars and their history are one of the great high lights of the week for me. Jay you have opened up my car world 10 fold more.
(And I have always been a car guy) you have just taught me so much more
Thank you. ---Scot
I am always learning about something I've never heard of! I have absolute admiration for the owner for not restoring it and keeping it origional! Thank you so much Jay for these videos! Keep them coming!
What a great car and a great episode. Jay always manage to make me smile. Thank you!
In the past, Lancias were for Italians like Mercedes Benz. The Lancias were famous for luxury and good building.
Yes and, like M-B, it was more about quality build and refinement than about pure luxury.
Jay Leno upload.
Never enough from this guy. Love the episodes.
Thank you very much.I Enjoy those laid-back videos when nobody has nothing to sell and is just relaxed and enjoyable thank you
Thanks Jay for taking the time to appreciate and share with us true classics that were created by real artist.
I love these videos, and I absolutely love this era of cars, especially Italian cars.
great video I saw my first Lancia in Europe n 1972 it brings back wonderful memories thanks Jay..
Jay, you always make me smile on a Monday... thanks.
Thanks for this Jay. Love the front end lines.
Hey Jay, will you ever make a video about your Citroen SM? I believe you made a short video about it on your website, I would just love to see a full video about it :)
Finally a real V4 , tired of people calling an inline 4 a V4 on craigslist lol
so...what is the difference?
Bender Bending Rodriguez a V4, shape of a V. Inline 4, it's inline... It's quite self explanitory.
An inline 4 has four cylinders in a straight line, one after the other. A V4 (or any V engine) has 4 cylinders, two pointing slightly left and two slightly right so they look like the lefts and rights are almost side by side. Saves space lengthwise.
so...the Lancia on the video is a v4 not a straight 4?
If you look at the engine at 7:33, you will see that the engine has two cylinder head covers, left and right, so this car has a V formation engine and in this case a V4.
Thanks for bringing us yet another cool old ride we'd probably never otherwise see, Jay.
Original unrestored is much more interesting to me. Much appreciated!
Another great video, can´t wait for it every Monday morning :-), thanks Jay
I came a bit late to comment but the main engineer that created the V6 was Francesco De Virgilio, not Vittorio Jano wich also was on developent team. Cool fact, Nicola Materazzi (the father of the ferrari F40) and De Virgilio were friends and the old De Virgilio, when retiring donated his slide rule to him in sign of good luck from and old engine designer to a new one. Materazzi still have that slide rule to this days
Absolutely love the classic lines of the car . The owner was a great passionate guy too .
Always impressed when original, unrestored survive decades intact
I love the way this car sounds. I know I know Italian cars always sound great.
Unusual, old and unmolested. Right up my alley. Thanks Jay.
Thanks Jay for bringing automotive history to life!
Wow.. the number plate is still "TO...." !!!
*Kamera,Ton und Schnitt hervorragend! Danke.Bangkok-Johnny CarSanook Media THAILAND 🇹🇭*
I was born in '74. And my Father had a '74 Fulvia 1.6 HF !!! Love the car!
Karl Jokker Lukkas The Fulvia HF must really have been something. Beautiful cars.
I might have seen jay's videos earlier, but after an overdose of Doug's videos, watching this man's video again, feels like i am watching a well mannered civilised doug.
What a beautiful noise it makes 🤩
Sunday december 30,2018 watching these videos always makes me want to go for a drive in my 67 impala!
Awesome video again Jay, thanks.
Nice Jay! it's so cool that you do all kinds of cars, not just fancy stuff, thumbs up brotha!
What a nice video and car and guy - thank you
My father has an old Lancia. Amazing cars.
Just fantastic .. Great show
Michelotti, also the designer of the Triumph Herald. Anyone notice the similarities between the Appia and the Herald 1200's? especially the headlights.
AdamAndMeisha Absolutely!
Funny, I had the feeling of "déjà vu" from the beginning. Sharp eyes and memory, Adam !
There are also very familiar looks of the Peugeot 404 and the whole series of British cars of this period ... with a much more sophisticated engine of course!
Frankly I saw the thumbnail before I read the video name and the first thing that flashed in my mind was Triumph Herald! 😊
Nothing like a Herald at all. It's more like an Austin A40 Farina.
Nice pick Jay love it thanks
Fantastic camera work and great new locations!
I love it. So elegant and sleek and oozing quality.
I believe the description should read, "after 58 years."
"Oh.. Say hi to Mike for me" Jay is the best!
It looks like a really sleek Austin Westminster. Lovely car.
We need some math refreshers here. The car will be 68 years old in ten years. Ninety-four thousand kilometers is fifty-eight thousand. Or maybe they're just fond of the number 68.
Finally, a car that won’t do a burnout! My old Buick would keep up with this car, although the little Italian job is probably more fun to drive. If I had this car, I would be tempted to get a first class paint job when I got that trunk patched up. So, maybe it’s good I don’t have it! They are original only once. Thanks guys! This is the first Lancia I’ve ever seen featured on a drive like this. I don’t think there’s any in Wisconsin. Super rare car!!
I have never seen a V4 in person, very cool stuff. Thanks Jay.
I think Lancia had Chicken-Wire above the headlining that was used as an internal Radio aerial, a few marks did this as a way to prevent an external aerial on the body work, those aerial holes I remember always had rust around the base on the body work. I may be wrong so don't quote me 100% on this.
Thanks for a great show.....
I love that V4 sound.
fantastic, I hope it survives many more years
Man that thing is so freakin cool, such a classy piece
Nice old car! Amazing, still running after all these years!
Nice video, top car. Looking good Jay. Thank you. Greetings from Belgium.
I'm definitely all up for more of this.
Thanks for saying "up" instead of what is the more common term 5 years since you posted your comment.
Great work!
Really like the stance of the car and they got the spacing of the tires to the fender wells perfect.
Great Car, thanks for posting.
I drive a Lancia Y 1.2ie and dream about these old ones. Greatest small cars ever.
one of the episodes i really enjoyed .
Jay, these episodes on unmolested original cars are great, along with true car enthusiast owners like Scott.
Very educational I think I will start doing more research about the brand.
Finally, this is the stuff i like. Older cars, and unusual cars. I don't mind old cars being restored , but i don't like it when they have no resemblance to the original. I can respect and admire the work, hot rods, and low riders do nothing for me. Each to their own i guess.
There was really rare Appia Spyder here in Maine for decades. In the '80s I got to detail it and steal a Polaroid picture of from it's map pocket. Couldn't help it! Still have it. You guys truley have a refined taste in cars in Leno-land.
Ha nice to see Jay referencing the discussion with Donald Osborne. I just watched the earlier video on Donald's 1967 Fulvia Sport on this channel and there this comes up!
"If you pulled up in this .. you've arrived didn't you ?"
I think there was one of these in the Granit Belt/ Darling Downs area in Queensland Australia. about 1962 (I was 17). This is a very original car and I can understand the attraction for them. I miss the real Lancia's.
A nice little car for a Sunday morning drive. Shows you don't need a big monster size automobile to draw attention. Thanks
Thank you men. That was enjoyable.
I enjoyed the Lancia, and also the v 4 that came with it!
Love that beautiful Automobile, such delicate fine lines everywhere! God was just showing off when he made Italy, they do everything with their hearts, like everything is a beautiful art piece!👍
This is indeed fantastic. Unrestored and original paint. Quite wonderful. I truly hope they keep it as is.
As long as it's presentable but let's not go overly anal on this originality thing. It gets a tad absurd at times.
Charming little car.
Charming, perfect description.
How fun to see. Thank you
Thanks, Jay!!
Beautiful car! Unrestored is very cool. So mysterious
I like stuff like this. I hope to see the dash gauges and all the different switchwork.
Not 68, but 58. Still impressive.
58,000 miles hahaha...
**Pedant alert. Did I mean the years, or at 3:42 the 94,000 km being 58,400 miles, not 68,000. One was changed, I see;)
cats are intelligent insects...
Glad I wasn't the only one to notice this!
a real car!
i love them all..the new and the old ones
AeroR 🎥🏍💨
ahh nice to have some Leno.
Really nice classic, like the color
