First registered on the 16th May 1961, this elegant Touring convertible was purchased on the 9th December 1996 by Jean-Pierre Nylin at the Palais des Congres auction sale in Paris. It was registered in Paris the following year and was described as having been driven fewer than 6,000 km since its major restoration. It had 8,755 km on the odometer during its last technical inspection in 1996 and now indicates a mileage of 8,791 km. Previously restored, the bodywork is in sound condition; it has some paint reactions and scratches which will require some attention. The red upholstery with black piping was clearly redone at the same time as the rest of the car. The 2.5L engine with one carburettor appears to be the correct type; only the upper part of the air filter is missing.

This Flaminia is an opportunity to own a mechanically and aesthetically remarkable convertible. It will need to be restarted, as well as having a full service done and some cosmetic work carried out in order to restore it to its full splendour – making it ready to enjoy as a high-quality automobile. 


Buyers are informed that all vehicles in the collection have seen limited use in recent years, having been part of a museum display. They are therefore sold as-is, require restarting, are not covered by a valid roadworthiness inspection, and will need full recommissioning before being driven on public roads.
