I'm getting my Lancia Fulvia Coupe ready for a complete interior overhaul. I pulled it out into the church parking lot to make some "before" photos of the interior ... haven't processed those yet ... but got annoyed—for the last time!—with all the stickers on the windows.

I removed them. It looks a lot cleaner to my eye.

Fulvia - De-Stickered #1 :: https://flic.kr/p/2mWJe77
Fulvia - De-Stickered #2 :: https://flic.kr/p/2mWKrGr
Fulvia - De-Stickered #3 :: https://flic.kr/p/2mWMn9a
Fulvia - De-Stickered #4 :: https://flic.kr/p/2mWCLJr

The contrasty sunlight would have been a problem with any other of my cameras, without a fill light solution anyway, but it was no problem with the Hasselblad 907x. All with the XCD 65mm f/2.8 lens.

Enjoy! :D

No matter where you go, go there in a Lancia.

If you look at earlier photos of the car …
such as:  https://flic.kr/p/2mUFV8f and others in that album
.. there are a bunch of stickers on the side-rear windows, the rear window, and on the front window as well. The ones on the front window were reduced long ago as they blocked my ability to see the rear view mirror without craning my neck to look around them.

The previous owner liked them, a little 'amen' to the rally heritage of the Fulvia Coupe. But I'm not a sticker lover: I only rarely put stickers on my cars. The two "HF" stickers on the front fenders are okay, I think, but i might remove those too.

I was being facetious with my “What stickers?” comments.

I was being curious about how you removed them so completely; i.e. without glue left behind.

Ah … I took your question literally. :)

All the stickers were vinyl appliqués … weasel a fingernail under the corner and tug carefully, they peel right off very cleanly. There's a little bit of glue residue left on the glass in some places: I rubbed that off with a little "Goo Gone".
