Harry drives out of workshop - looking like he's celebrating his 11th birthday! What a great day for all involved.
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.
Not just A car, THE very car that shaped the rest of your life! And now she’s your pride and joy.
Congratulations Harry.
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.
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
Fantastic video! Iain Tyrell's watching this, thinking 'I could have tuned those carbs by ear..'
Seeing the Lancia coming back to life and the look on Harry's face is just priceless! Congratulations!
A boy with his toy, I can actually see the excitement on Harry's face and in his voice. Well done.
after the test drive, the presenter's mood rose, positive emotions went off the scale
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. 👍
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.
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.
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.
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.
Thank you Harry for supporting craftsmen like these.
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!
Best channel on RUclips. Amazing video as always. I love the various projects that are underway, and glad I'm not footing the bill.
only grown men that love cars can enjoy this...the pure pleasure and the simple joy......lol...
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!
It is a joy to see such a poor sad car finally restored to proper glory and shine! It put me a smile!
Like the look of the 2000 Sedan on the other ramp. Lovely
It's simple really: I can't think of more passionate car enthusiast than Harry.
What a sound! A true Italian beauty 🇮🇹
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.
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!
Drove to Paris and back to Manchester with my old restaurant boss Fernando and a fellow waiter,Pete in 1984 ish...... A magnificent machine!
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.
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!
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.
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.
I cant believe that Harry is going to rally this Jewel....
Wow, barely touching the key and it lights up instantly. That's a happy engine. And that sound!! Delectably Snotty!
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
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!
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.
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
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.
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 .😀
Almost got a little emotional when that little car came back to life. Amazing work!
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
Great to see it going again! It will be a fantastic car when it’s finished.
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've rebuilt a few engines. There's nothing like the thrill when it first fires up.
I felt your excitement. 👍
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!
Wow… those chaps really have got a wiggle on, pulled out all the stops and made astonishing progress!!! Superb work ❤
I think Harry enjoyed this video more than the viewers!
We love you harry, we hope you are saved.
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. 👂
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.
Sounds better than a 1600 has any right to! That is going to be so much fun.
Immensely satisfying to see this project come together. (The broken throttle pedal pretty much summarizes the entire journey). Very well done!!
Wonderful day. I can’t wait to see this gorgeous little car finished and blazing along the road.
Absolutely gorgeous!!! I hope one day Lancia will return to its former glory
I couldn't help but smile watching your excitement, Harry. That authentic love of the specialness of various cars, despite having driven (and even owned) so many, is one of the things that makes your channel such a delight.
Happy as a kid on Christmas morning. Almost as loud as a Christmas Cracker. What joy and excitement. Well done guys.
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
👍👍
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.
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!
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🤣
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.
Back to life, baby. I enjoyed that almost as much as Harry. A nice car.
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.
This is joyous. This car will be forever the ‘Harry Meaden, Lancia Fulvia Zagato”. With a unique documented heritage.
Bravo, Bravo.
Wow. Just wow!
I have absolutely zero interest in the Lancia Zagato but would I skip this and miss one of Harry's video's ? Absolutely no chance. Great entertainment as always.
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!
You took us on an adventurous journey and the result is more than rewarding. So happy for you! Amazing work from everyone involved. Can‘t await the first shakedown and a proper road trip.
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!
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
Very Big 👍 from me, those craftsmen definitely know what there doing Harry.
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!
You are basically getting a brand new Lancia Zagato 1600 Harry!
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.
A dog with two Kn**s wouldn’t be any happier
Love this car and build ❤
A truly joyous moment when the Lancia fires up ✌🏼👏🏾👏🏾
Sounds great ✌🏼
It's alive!! Harry lit up as well, like a boy with his first car, well done team it looks and sounds great.
Looking extremely sharp
Such a delight to see Harry fizzing with so much excitement.
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.
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.
Harry. So pleased for you. The joy on your face. An early Christmas present.
I've been watching you channel so long that I started clapping at my TV when she started mate! Keep up the great content
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.
You gotta love a pair of 45's. They go on forever.
These people are artists. Their work is just beautiful. Can't wait to see the Fulvia on the road again.
Emotional joy, just what I needed. Thanks Harry and Co.
Kid - candy shop! 😁
Great to her her run again Harry. Fabulous job by all concerned!
From Mexico, beautiful work, the body craftsman my respect, the paint, the engine, everything is amazing
So, basically, it's a new car. Nice to be able to follow the proces. Thanks.
Man what a great job they did. True Masters at there craft.
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 👏🏼 👍🏼
You're saving these cars for posterity Harry, fair play to you.
Must be the best one there is now . Congratulations harry
Who needs a Countach? Well done chaps!
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.👍
Lovely, raspey exhaust note. That, boy racers, is how your hot-hatch should sound.
A milestone in this restoration, after all the rust and poor repairs by previous owners the Fulvia is probably better than it is from the factory now.
When a car falls in to Harry's lap you know its in safe hands and he'll make it great again. That is one very sweet car now. It sounds absolutely fabulous !
Love the Zagato...
Already a favorite all-time...can't wait to see/hear it cruising...
