This Lancia Aurelia B20
GT Series IV is Gray with a Parchment interior. It was a frame-off
restoration by renowned restoration specialists L'Atelier des Coteaux
in France. It is in beautiful condition throughout and it is in
excellent running order. The car is right hand drive as were all
Lancia's built up until this point even though Italy was driving
on the right hand side prior to World War II. This gave the driver
a better of view of the edge in the twists and turns of the mountain
roads during rallys. Trucks in the Alps are still built with Right
Hand Drive to this day. The Aurelia was designed by Vittorio Jano
whose design portfolio also includes all of the great Alfa Romeos
including the Monza and the P3. At its time it was the most advanced
production car in the world. The Aurelia was equipped with the first
production V6. The Series IV cars are the most desirable series
with many upgrades such as a 2 ½ litre engine producing 118bhp
and de Dion tube suspension system. A beautiful and rare example
of one of the most iconic and distinctive cars from the 1950s. Please
