X 19s were the equal of 914s in california - in terms of being everywhere down here in aus back in the late 70s and into the 80s. hundreds of them.
all gone. have not seen one on the road for at least 10 years. haven't even really seen any for sale for a long time either. rust gets them - even in aus. a lot of cars tend to rust slowly down here, but anything italian rusted just from being looked at, even in a dry garage. great cars to drive. i wheeled around in one for a short while on loan from a friend in the 80s. she ended up crashing it, chose a paddock on the side of a road rather than a head on with an idiot who had crossed a double white line to overtake someone. there are still however a fair number of lancia monte-carlos surviving down here. tightly held and kept on the road by enthusiasts. i think the usa got a version of the monte-carlo but it was emasculated by pollution and bumper regs. we got the more or less pure italian version down here. slightly larger than an X/19 but not much larger -- and more power. |
