Hello Mick,  Can I ask you why you bought a Volumex( Lancia) engine?

I am busy with a Trevi VX!

Greetings, Albert

Hi Albert,

The Trevi, another of my all time favourite Italian cars. You must post many pictures!

[bellamacchina]

I will but not yet as the car is rustfree!!! but has a side and roof damage. It is running excellent as the engine did 102000km and had a rebuild 6000km ago, interior is mint, underside also mint. I bought a Trevi 2000 and a lot of spares to make it possible to rebuild. Problem is that at the moment still nobody wants these excellent cars and there is already near nothing on the market. I will keep you informed. I really really wanna finish this project and put the car next to my Fiat Volumetrico's. They were actually the prototypes from which Lancia distilled their VX production versions in 3 shapes. I was especially interested in the Trevi as it comes the closest to the 131 and I wanna know the difference between Volumetrico rear wheel drive and Volumex front wheel drive! And of course the shape is nice and a bit weird!

I have fond memories of driving a Trevi over a summer once. It was my bosses car, but the business broke down and it got sold. It was in great order and I really wish I had got it as my wages. But I didn't and I think it ended up in Ireland. It was silver with a blue interior. A 2 litre with carburettor engine.

Hello Albert,

Just wanted something a little different under the bonnet to what I usually have had, have never driven one so thought I should give it a go.. .

I'll ask the question Terry no probs.

Here's hoping...

Hello Mick,

You wanna fit the engine in a 131? If so, I am very interested in the result!

Good luck. I'll tell more about the Trevi when we go into the good direction again.

Hi guys,

Just a quick update on the current bits and bobs for sale. I spent a few hours this morning going through numerous boxes, there's bloody hundreds  ....

... here's some pics of what I found








There was also 130 TC  first series front grills x 3, 131 front indicator units and rear number plate lights ( not sure how many ), 131/ 132 front grills ( will take pics tomorrow ), loads of TCA's / dizzy caps etc, etc.

Am going to try and spend as much time as I can sifting through the other shelves in the morning, I only managed one lot of shelving today.. .

Hi mick, I'll take the drivers side tail light and would be interested in a passenger side one aswell if you find any. Just let me know the price with UK delievery.

Also still want a radiator, and maybe a grill if there's one that takes round headlamps?

Thanks
chris

Tail light is yours Chris, will have a look for passengers side tomorrow. There are a couple of grills with the Fiat emblem that take round head lights, will post pics tomorrow to see if they are what you / anyone is interested in.

Rads seem to be very popular..5 at last count.. , I'll ask.

Mick.

[chris131]

Thanks mick, also if there is any round carello headlamps I would be interested in those aswell. Don't have to be for the 131, just any fiat model. Let me know what you find?

[mick131]

Today my brother, Wayne and myself spent a good 4 1/2 hours looking through boxes etc. I still think there's some stuff we haven't looked at yet. Below is what we managed to take away today..

Three Strada Series 2 rear panels.


Strada door handle and Series two O/S front indicator.


Two 131, one 132 ? and two Strada 130TC front grills ( only one in pic ). Two N/S rear 130 TC light clusters




131 Series 1 front bumper ?.


A box full of approx 25 131 TCA's, all of which seem to be original FIAT items.


131 Series 1 headlight ( think there may be another one )


Quite an unexpected find this one...


Last two are of Volumex engine..




There are also the following parts still there - 131 Series 1 front grill, 131 Series 2 front headlights,

Hi Chris, the pic below was I think a Carello 131 light unit and nearly new backplate for, I think, the drivers side. There seemed to be a few Carello units lying about but are probably all off Lancia's and they seemed to have different mounting points to a 131 but will check again next weekend.

Why it's so far away ... any idea how much would the Volumex engine be ?
Does he still have the front lid for 131 - it's listed on his webpage ...

[mirafioriman]

How much for the late model 131 front grille? Did you find the Argenta sump?

[bellamacchina]

Hello Mick,

Can you please secure me the 131 front grille with the 5 spokes north-south!? The same one in my blue Volumetrico has a little crack and part missing so I would be incredibly happy with that item!!
