Birth of a Lancia Thema 8 32 SW

In this movie you can witness the birth of a Lancia Thema 8.32 SW. This model was once made as a gift for Agnelli (director at Fiat group). He received a series 1 Lancia Thema 8.32 SW. I made the second car in the world. It's made from a second series Thema 8.32 and a first series Sw body.
The building of this car is described on www.weblogs.lanciathema.nl and this movie gives one a brief summery.
The building of the car took about 2,5 years. It's maiden trip was 1 day after the car passed it's MOT and went to Italy. In one week me and my friend Ewoud drove about 4000 kms in the car wihtout any significant problems. Now I'm contemplating an installation of an Alfa 166 gearbox with Torssen differential. Check my weblog for updates!

It is always nice to see when someone appreciates such cars like this Lancia and trying to give to car a second life so they can run and show-off. Nice job. Realy nice. Well done.

[@windfucker26]

I'm jealous of the owner of this car : )))) best regards from Macedonia

[@fivama]

A big "Bravo" for your project, I really like the fact you made a SW 8.32 !! I hope one day someones will make it RWD! :)

[@joshuanishanthchristian5217]

Takes away from the point of the car a bit, doesn't it?

[@everm1973]

Those Marangoni's were temproraly, in one of the last pictures one can see the Pirelli P6000 that were finally fitted to the car!

[@massimilianomax2161]

pzero rosso or nero should were better...

[@CherylCold]

Brilliant shooting brake. I'm restoring my lord blue evo2, been a Lancia enthusiast as long I can remember. What a fabulous load carrier

[@everm1973]

Thanks Cheryl! I wish for a Lancia Meeting with all types of Lancia's in Lord Blu. Should be possible!

[@CarsfromItaly1]

Great Work compliments nobody would have even tried to do this.Its beautiful to see people who appreciate this historic cars.One day i look forward to own a 8.32.Take good care of that thema and it will take care of u.

[@bobfriendship8893]

I recorded your interesting video just after you released it. A very worth-while project and a useful outcome too. Excellent, interesting and inovative. Many thanks. (I had just bought a series 1)

[@Felixvaper]

Nice job!

[@Sunseeker888]

It looks and sounds superb! Well done!

[@Beethoven80]

What a great project!! Congratulations!

[@mvz47]

wat een schitterende reportage!!!! En... wat een schitterende prestatie!!!! Marry

[@andreafusco9416]

Sei un grande, questo è un capolavoro!

[@theloniousratledge8835]

No. Questa è passione e tanta perizia. Seriamente dico che hanno fatto un grande lavoro. Fanno schifo i coatti semmai, quelli del "tuning", quelli che fanno aumentare il peso di una Punto fino a 1300 chili e passa a furia di modifiche estetiche raccapriccianti ed impianti vari ai limiti della follia.

[@FoxtrotEchoDelta85]

Greetings for your very nice Job! This is a lovely car, in Italy it isn't impossible and not legal put a 8.32 engine into an other Thema... but your is a good result!

[@63maury63]

Gr8 job, much better than Wheeler Dealers. Very congrats.

[@nikothecrazygreek]

beautiful car i would have that over an M5 any day, Nice TVR at 7:19

[@stefano669]

Fantastico lavoro GRANDE!!!! Bellissima auto

[@AlphaV2]

¿Qué fantástico trabajo que has hecho! Te aplaudo! ¡Qué lástima que siempre hay un idiota que hace clic en el "pulgar hacia abajo" botón ...

[@midlam99]

In about 1985 TAK Motors in Johannesburg converted an 8.32 to Right hand drive. Possibly the only one. I don't know if it's still alive, unfortunately the garage owners have all passed away.

[@giuseppelavecchia775]

Non puo essere il 1985,la thema ferrari e' nata nel 1986,e per la conversione della guida a destra come hanno fatto con il cruscotto,il cruscotto e' per la guida a sinistra,hanno ricostruito il cruscotto?

[@aboutblankita]

great work!!!!!

[@reggello15]

@CarsfromItaly1 io sono italiano e la thema 8.32 è la più grande auto mai fabbricata.

[@robertrodriguezFhortune]

nice work mate!!!

[@CarsfromItaly1]

@poi9990 Thats not the point dont be ignorant this is a classic car Just like the lancia stratos which now cost 100.000$ or more.

[@MIKERU974]

Fantastic job but why not to try a two colors paint to give a little more dynamic at the shape of the car ?

[@sammyk5]

really good work guys!!! I own a 93 thema turbo 16v, the car goes still fine, I´m trying to get some parts and accesories to keep it original and good looking, do you know where can I find them??? I´m from Chile by the way

[@59silvano]

NICE JOB,COMPLIMENT !!

[@davemik71]

Idea fantastica 👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@MrEricPerrier]

[@polredside]

[@friedchicken1]

[@CynicalBastard511]

Did you have to widen the floor pan or any change whatsoever on the body the car?

[@theloniousratledge8835]

Bravissimi!

[@wrcfaAAAAAAAAN]

Love your car,it;s just perfect!!!!!

[@asztaloszoltan9966]

Very nice ! How much did it cost to build ?

[@fargo_972]

Perfect job! :-)))

[@wrcfaAAAAAAAAN]

RESPECT!

[@Tomandrea]

Il massimo sarebbe stato adattare alla sw l'iconico alettone retrattile, comunque complimenti.

[@CarsfromItaly1]

@poi9990 I have been to italy many times but just tell me what do italians think of this car?Im not offending you.Its just that u said this is the ferrari of poor and thats not the case because this is special collectors car.Greetings from me too

[@everm1973]

I'm contemplating to paint the stripes of the 8.32 on the car. It's hard to find a specialist who can handpaint these stripes on a car.

[@vojin54]

don't do it,it has to lok sleek not fast!

[@pierpaoloprastaro7379]

Bravi

[@jareknowak8712]

[@377drift100]

waw supr car.I wont one

[@worldhello1234]

No probs, just find a broken Lancia Thema 8.32 with working engine and tranny and do it yourself. \O/

[@lucianoleali9526]

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee you is a jeniousssssssssssssss

[@heinz490]

a Young guy i germany had a BMW e30 323 with a rear crash he allways wanted a sw so he build a touring e30 when he went to his job at BMW they told him not to take this car home they want to put it in production he made his fortune

[@marcominasi]

@reggello15 Anche io sono italiano, apprezzo il lavoro fatto, veramente notevole e anche la macchina si difende bene, ma quello che hai detto mi sembra proprio una stronzata! :D

[@marcomaserati]

COMPLIMENTS!

[@josecitro]

Terrificante!!! :( ma si possono lasciare gomme marangoni.... Se riparava l'originale era meglio...

[@francesco9412]

Josè Citro pienamente d'accordo

[@rusav81]

ma come faceva a riparare l'originale?! non hai visto che aveva il telaio piegato

[@giuseppelavecchia775]

@@rusav81 il telaio piegato non c'entra,quella macchina se volevano si sistemava,piuttosto,il motivo per cui l'hanno presa non era per salvarla,ma per trapiantarla sulla SW

[@marcolino73100]

che coatti ma fate i seri il motore di una thema 8.32 su di una thema sw ma fate schifo

[@jeanprinz3813]

Wunderschön, schade dass du ihn verkaufen tust:kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4qyoKmGoM6AqM0

[@frazzo883]

Hai rovinato un' icona italiana

[@exNRGista2]

E perché scusa? Quella 8.32 aveva la scocca ormai fuori squadro per la botta che aveva preso (notare il parabrezza crepato), tanto vale riciclarla così. Del resto, Giovanni Agnelli si era fatto costruire una 8.32 in versione wagon, non vedo perché non possa farlo un comune mortale con i propri mezzi!
