Harry drives out of workshop - looking like he's celebrating his 11th birthday! What a great day for all involved.
The look on Harry's face after the Zags start up was just quality. Like a kid in a candy store. 😁😁
Ye its superb! like me getting a model saturn 5 space rocket back in the days of being a child 😁😄
And he looked the same when he took her for a spin, if not more so. That look won't fade soon, no sir! Pure joy.
Ha ha!! Exactly!!!!! (I was thinking kid in a sweet shop!!)🤣
@@mantarayal that's what I meant. I'm just being considerate to the foreign viewers. 😉
Sweet shop you mean
It is a wonderful restoration, there is so much going on under the skin. What a glorious sound, Thanks Harry
Skin is mostly new metal now
sounds like a kid blowing a raspberry
@One Issue Voter, as they said.
@@johnnunn8688 they said they will trim the body..... bit of a bodge. It needs a different rad
@One Issue Voter agreed also some of the welding is a bit suspect to say the least
Seeing Harry take it out of the garage, I just knew he couldn't resist taking out farther. Like a kid with a new toy. Part of Harry's charm.
My dad had a Zagato in 1971, it was a 1.3 1969 model in a fabulous original metallic colour, called Rosso Mirabella, it was absolutely gorgeous, so gorgeous intact that it attracted attention wherever it went. On one very memorable occasion a chap on his bicycle was so captivated by it's beauty he couldn't keep his eyes off it as we drove by and ended up falling of his bicycle as he turned his head watching us in awe as we drove by, a very funny and memorable moment. My Dad loved the car so much , he would film it on his 8mm cine camera, which when I watch them today they bring back so many memories. The Zagato was a truly beautiful car, a work of art in my opinion and way ahead of it's time in so many respects.
Fantastic video! Iain Tyrell's watching this, thinking 'I could have tuned those carbs by ear..'
What a sound! A true Italian beauty 🇮🇹
Not just A car, THE very car that shaped the rest of your life! And now she’s your pride and joy.
Congratulations Harry.
Like the look of the 2000 Sedan on the other ramp. Lovely
A boy with his toy, I can actually see the excitement on Harry's face and in his voice. Well done.
Seeing the Lancia coming back to life and the look on Harry's face is just priceless! Congratulations!
Turn the volume WAY UP for this video, it's a great one. After the restoration is completed, this car needs a solid 10-minute video with nothing but the sounds of it and the road while Harry drives it with the brightest smile on his face. 👍
The diameter of the exhaust is extremely important on these little V4 engines from Lancia. The original diameter gives you the original performance and engine characteristics, as designed by Lancia. Even a small change in diameter makes a significant difference. On my Appia (the Fulvia's older brother), we experimented with different pipes and even the smallest change was noticeable. Lancia knew their stuff. Keep it to original specs all the way.
So I guess that still holds true for the Abarth spec Twin-cams in the 037 and Monte Carlo Silhouette? Any idea what those were? Cheers
Thank you Harry for supporting craftsmen like these.
Such a pleasure to see the enthusiasm Harry showed upon his return from his first drive
All of everyone's hard work so far summed up in that smile.
The flame-orange colour was the right choice - it's a fire-breathing dragon, the little Lancia!! Such an emotional moment after such an eventful voyage of discovery in restoration. Almost cannot wait until you can drive it away for real.
I am not a big Lancia fan. And I’m not necessarily a big Zagato fan. But I’m a total fan of anyone who is pouring so much passion and resources to revive a unique and lovely automobile such as this one.
It is a joy to see such a poor sad car finally restored to proper glory and shine! It put me a smile!
Oh Harry, you are such a child. BUT SO WOULD I BE. Beautiful. You have the resources to bring this baby to life and bravo, bravo, bravo.
We love you harry, we hope you are saved.
after the test drive, the presenter's mood rose, positive emotions went off the scale
Almost got a little emotional when that little car came back to life. Amazing work!
Best channel on TH-cam. Amazing video as always. I love the various projects that are underway, and glad I'm not footing the bill.
Wow, barely touching the key and it lights up instantly. That's a happy engine. And that sound!! Delectably Snotty!
If one could bottle up Harry´s happy feelings and sell them, we´d improve the world.
That color of the car´s so right, and then we have the so sound.
More sports cars for everyone!
Drove to Paris and back to Manchester with my old restaurant boss Fernando and a fellow waiter,Pete in 1984 ish...... A magnificent machine!
This has got to be my favourite restoration amongst Harry's curent YT videos. I was surprised to see how much work had taken place since the last episode (around 3 weeks sgo) & the look on Harry's face when the engine started first time was just wonderful.
The Lancia is really taking shape & will be a wonderful addition to Harry's collection, especially as he has such an emotional connection to this car. Brilliant stuff!
After all that work and Webers from a completely different car and it fires up like that. Amazing. Then that classic Italian music in almost perfect tune from the start.
Love it. Impressive by all involved
👍👍
I cant believe that Harry is going to rally this Jewel....
Harry like a kid in a sweet shop, fantastic. It is amazing how much joy a car can bring to the genuine enthusiast. I bet it feels better than picking up a new Ferrari. Great stuff.
This seems to take forever this restoration, then you look close and see the quality of the work, it's going to be totally worth the wait, congrats to all involved thus far, great work indeed.
Great to see it going again! It will be a fantastic car when it’s finished.
You're that happy while there are still a lot of parts missing. Imagine how good this is going to be when its on full throttle with those carbs. It already sounded great when it was ropey so now all the panels are the right shape and its been put together by people who know what they're doing its going to be immense.
This is one of my favourite projects you've done. Its so good to see a car that has been bodged and half done for years get restored back to better than new. I can't wait to see it out and about now. Even the colour suits it. Love that little car.
This car comes from such a great time in automotive history when Italian manufacturers like Lancia and Alfa Romeo made such stunningly beautiful coupes that were purpose built for spirited driving through the Italian Alps.
I've rebuilt a few engines. There's nothing like the thrill when it first fires up.
I felt your excitement. 👍
Very Big 👍 from me, those craftsmen definitely know what there doing Harry.
Love your channel and this is by far my favorite restoration! The repairs to the body are nothing less than miraculous. To that end, I would enjoy seeing a diagram of all of the old and new sheet metal pieces superimposed over the finished car, like cuts of beef on the wall in a butcher's shop. I cant wait to see it finished!
We're always to amazed that our old cars start again after we pull them apart and yet... the factory produced 1,000's and they all started!
Absolutely gorgeous!!! I hope one day Lancia will return to its former glory
Congratulations, Harry. I have a huge amount of respect and appreciation for these cars now and the amount of work you've put into this one. As an American, we never got these, so I've never seen one. This certainly is a beauty.
I couldn't believe it the other day when I saw one of these driving around in a rural town outside of Melbourne in Aus. These things are incredibly rare to begin with and to see when on a country road out here... I think it may be one of only a few in Australia.
Sounds better than a 1600 has any right to! That is going to be so much fun.
Fantastic to see it running after all this time. This has been my favorite project on the channel. Even more than the Jag and the Espada.
Harry in this video reminds me of Christmas when I was 7 and I was trying ride my new bicycle before my dad had finished assembling it. Some kids never grow up and are all the better for it!
Wonderful day. I can’t wait to see this gorgeous little car finished and blazing along the road.
Back to life, baby. I enjoyed that almost as much as Harry. A nice car.
only grown men that love cars can enjoy this...the pure pleasure and the simple joy......lol...
wow! the best Harrys video yet, having cut my teeth as a boy on classic restorations and working in the paintshop at Marrrenello to complete my apprenticeship ( those were the days!) i can fully appreciate the work that has gone into this. Harry seeing this wonderful car coming back to life, like a kid in a sweet shop
! Fantastic work by all . Thank you.
Lancia Zagato!
THE stuff of legends, well, here in the U.S. at least. I worked on one DECADES ago. Gave her a Pertronics ignition, set valve lash, and tweeked the carbs, & took it for a drive. Great, FUN car!
Enjoy her Harry!
I love this car. Really grown on me. Love these ‘ground up’ restorations. Iain Tyrell would tune the carbs using a hose pipe. 😂
HaHa. I think everyone watching this was thinking the same, and expected to see a rubber hose sticking out of his ear. 👂
It's simple really: I can't think of more passionate car enthusiast than Harry.
6:17 Make sure that the fuel lines (especially rubber hoses) aren't too close to the exhaust system. 🙂 Radiated heat doesn't need to make physical contact.
Wow… those chaps really have got a wiggle on, pulled out all the stops and made astonishing progress!!! Superb work ❤
Looks great Harry. Just a quick one on the Carb intake stacks, two of these could be longer than the other two due to the asymmetric port lengths across the Narrow angle Lancia V4. From the back of the engine coming forward it should be short/long/short/long and ideally the difference in length should be circa 100mm? This would certainly help to equalize the induction port length. 👍🏻
You can change the trumpet lengths but that does not alter the fact that the position of the Emulsion tubes within the carburettors are always at different lengths in regard to the position of the inlet valves and that is why when all said and done a vacuum check will not be 100 percent accurate as was shown because one reading was done on a short intake length and the other on a long intake length but because the Radiator precludes measuring the front port then you do no 2 on the first carburettor and no 4 on the second carburettor as they are both the same length inlet tract and then the tricky part is setting the idle mixture screws and in that area experience with Fulvia V 4 engines is of great importance as they are an art to get as close to perfect as you can.
Didn't they mention something about other trumpet options? I got the impression they wanted to see how it worked with this setup before deciding whether to see if a different setup would work better.
Harry's face after driving the Zagato says it all. The time and money that went into bringing this car back from the dead was worth it. It sounds incredible, and I can't wait to see it finished
Wow. Just wow!
What a charming moment, obviously emotionally charged.
She started so easily, the whole project has been carried out to the highest standard. The result is truly special.
Looking forward to fully assembled!
Such a delight to see Harry fizzing with so much excitement.
Awesome job. Sounds great, once that’s dialled it will purr along. I love your enthusiasm, ‘A kid at Xmas!’ I’d be the same. That’s how my car makes me feel when you’ve been out driving it and step out, walk away and look back at it. Usually followed by take a photo!
I’m so jealous, this car is fabulous, the colour, the sound… it’s a zagato! I love everything about this resto. The XJC was awesome, but the colour is still growing on me. Harry your restorations are amazing! Thanks for your work, and thanks for your channel.
Happy as a kid on Christmas morning. Almost as loud as a Christmas Cracker. What joy and excitement. Well done guys.
The happiest I have ever seen Harry. What a wonderful moment and how good does that machine now look. It's also got a very angry note which suits it perfectly. Great work
A truly joyous moment when the Lancia fires up ✌🏼👏🏾👏🏾
Sounds great ✌🏼
Nothing like the induction sounds of webbers. I had a tripple setup on my old 240Z. Beautiful sound. Can't wait for the first drive in this beautiful car.
Looking extremely sharp
He is right, "it sounds really good" !!!! That glorious "rasp" from the tail pipe makes me think of my old S3 Fulvia SSD 377M, long gone.......and the colour is spot-on!
Emotional joy, just what I needed. Thanks Harry and Co.
From Mexico, beautiful work, the body craftsman my respect, the paint, the engine, everything is amazing
That's been so, so satisfying... It roared into life so nicely, and the sheer excitement of driving it around the block must have been incredible. Fantastic!
congratulations to the mechanics excellent work
I'm following you since some years and i have to say that this is my favorite project from your channel! It's so nice to see you this happy about being back with the Fulvia Zagato! For me it's such dream car and yours sounds like hell! I wish you all the best with her and thank you so much to bring us with you along this journey!
Thank you Harry!
50 years old sounds superb well done awesome
I think Harry enjoyed this video more than the viewers!
The Birth of another Baby for Harry and it breaths . Checking with instruments and not a piece of old hose pipe , catch up Ian ? Now a waiting the maternity fee and letting the lady at home another mouth to feed . Well done to all in the rebirth of an icon and Harry .😀
These are great videos, I love them!
I've had x5 Alfa's, the best being a 1.3 Ti Alfasud & a 2.0 Alfetta, Loved them!
What these videos (Harry's & Lain Tyrells) does is give me the spark and re-confidence to do the work myself!
As a former aircraft engineer, it's reignited my will and desire to just do stuff myself! .... and enjoy it!
My old '07 Jeep Grand Cherokee is now running sweet and I love it! ... Thanks Harry/Lain for reconnecting me
with my roots. Keep making these great videos.
A share your enthusiasm.Always nice when it starts.Well done all
It sounds froooooty! Congrats to everyone involved.
Brilliant just bloody brilliant to see what everyone has achieved and to such a high standard. You can see the look of joy on peoples faces with this project.👍
Immensely satisfying to see this project come together. (The broken throttle pedal pretty much summarizes the entire journey). Very well done!!
Love the Zagato...
Already a favorite all-time...can't wait to see/hear it cruising...
Realy enjoyed the sound of that enging spring into life.
It's looking lovely! I've seen a few of these, but I think they all must have been bondo-monsters. Seeing yours, the real beauty of what Lancia and Zagato were doing is revealed!
Not much of original metal left
Must be the best one there is now . Congratulations harry
It's alive!! Harry lit up as well, like a boy with his first car, well done team it looks and sounds great.
All credit to your team of restorer’s top work.
I wasn't prepared for how amazing it sounds. It's mega
It's an endlessly interesting design, everything under the hood and below the car is very clever and interesting. Then the work looks lovely, add superb body style, I apologize for ever suggesting this was bit far to go on this car. Very happy for Metcalf. You can calibrate that carb vacuum gauge with Tyrrell's hosepipe.
The carb rebuild is unbelievable I mean if someone did not know they were webber 45s they would have thrown them in the bin I'm sure and the rebuild on the car is next level congrats Harry 👏🏼 👍🏼
The super lightweight version of the Zagato! Sounds great!
The only thing better than this will be seeing Harry drive it for the first time
Oops! Should have watched the whole video before commenting🤣
What an engine!!! How it revs…wowowoow!!! What a sound!!!! And what a car!!!
Man what a great job they did. True Masters at there craft.
Wonderful to see Harry like a kid in a sweetshop, that little Zagato is a very emotive thing! Fabulous restoration and so glad we have been able to follow it.
Whenever I see that engine I imagine it doubled-up into an ultra-compact little W8. It must have crossed the minds of a few Lancia people back in the day. ETA >> I was grinning non-stop at the end when Harry drove it out of the garage. ETA2 >> no mistaking that sound for anything but an Italian - if heard it coming I'd know it was a Lancia or maybe an Alfa.
Harry. So pleased for you. The joy on your face. An early Christmas present.
... The Beast lives on! Thanks Harry.
Like a kid at Christmas .....Brilliant Harry made up for you 🤩
So, basically, it's a new car. Nice to be able to follow the proces. Thanks.
Bloody hell, Harry. That car looks stunning even though it's not complete.
Fabulous video. Magical stage of the process.
Anyone who has ever rebuilt a car will appreciate the immense complexity of the mechanicals required to get an old car moving under its own motive power.
Anyone who has ever rebuilt a car will recall the magic of the noise, sounds, smells, sensations of its rebirth - they’re old memories reborn!
This video captures these emotions succinctly.
I remember getting an old mini going again, and feeling similar sensations. It didn’t need doors or a dashboard - just as long as I could feel and hear the thing going again, I was happy to have my car back. Just as in this case, the rebuilt engine was more powerful, cleaner and stronger than the rusty old thing that it once was - but felt instantly familiar.
Always good to see a happy fellow petrol head!
Great seeing the Zagato running Harry 👍👍👍👍top notch restoration
