No. 2C didn't have overriders.

Both of my 2Cs had a badge on the grille saying just that.

If you were in any doubt you could open the bonnet and count the carburettors. I have just looked at a picture of my white 2C, which was SMX 41F. It did not have overriders.

The chassis # was 818.101.065398

For ye of little faith, my first Lancia, the one in which I nearly died.

Sorry about the poor image, but it's taken from a 35mm slide and it is nearly 50 years old.
For dsl, it is definitely a 2C, those carbs took up much of my time, and you can see the 2C badge just to the left of the RAC badge.

It was totalled? Returned it to white, probably UV degradation:

Thank you, that’s very clever.

Yes, it was totalled, it hit one of Lord Lichfield’s trees and I spent the next four weeks in hospital, and the next three months in plaster casts.

Complete negligence on the part of Lord Lichfield, it's the mentality of the upper class.

^. I’m afraid it was my stupidity in driving too fast, but my old Dad used to say that the tree had jumped the wrong way. I still suffer from oedema in the leg which got so badly broken, there is still metalwork inserted all those years ago by a very accomplished surgeon, to support both the ankle and the upper and lower bones.

And, finally, what replaced the Lancia, (1969 Ford Capri 1600XL) with my lovely girl friend at the time leaning against it. I wonder if Chicomarx could wave a magic wand over this picture, please?

We have now been married for 46 years.

Alright, slightly more natural colour, while keeping the Capri red:
