The Delta HF Integrale (later launched in the Evolution version) resembled the very best in terms of performances and #fun of #driving, underlying what is good about the driving experience of a performance car. The vehicle still has its place in the hearts of fans, and the young Eugenio Amos with his company (Automobili Amos) wants to play Superman and rescue these broken hearts by building a (few) modern Delta Integrale. It is fair to say that he played a hell of a Superman when he presented the “Delta Futurista”, an astonishing redesigned vehicle capable of warming the hearts of every #car enthusiast around the world. Always great car passionate and collector itself (with nothing less than an amazing “Verde Abetone” #Ferrari F40 and a perfectly maintained #Mercedes CLK GTR), Eugenio’s company project is to build no more than 15 Delta Futurista with estimated building times required of around 4 months. The #AutomobiliAmos famous motto, “#makelanciagreatagain” quickly earned its attention in social media becoming a frequently used hashtag for the brand’s fans around the world. Another interesting topic born around Amos’ passion for green cars, giving birth to the hashtag #makegreengreatagain. In an interview for “Classic Driver”, the young Amos says that people tend to love things that no longer exist. Like Lancia. What do you think about his work? Which car is still embroidered in your heart and why? Let us know! #ShareYourOpinion in the comments below! Author: #SFAndreaTagliariol".
