Condition
7
While the car has been restored and well-maintained, the listing focuses on its history and eligibility for events rather than a detailed description of its current condition.

Description
Introduced in B10 berlina form in 1950, Lancia’s Aurelia is a landmark postwar automobile.
It was the first production car with a V-6 engine, and the first provided with radial tires.
It combined Lancia’s torsionally stiff unit-body construction and traditional sliding-pillar front suspension with a rear transaxle and a multi-link rear suspension.
1951 saw the introduction of a coupé version: The B20 GT, with a 1,991-cubic-centimeter engine on a shortened 2,660-milimeter wheelbase.
The model was constantly developed and improved over time; In 1953, the 3rd Series saw the engine increased to 2,451 cubic centimeters, and with the 4th Series the rear axle was changed to a DeDion unit for more predictable roadholding at the limit.
The present car is a 6th Series example, whose specification included improved sound deadening for additional road comfort, as well as added features such as opening front quarter windows.
Chassis B20-3857 was also fitted with a desirable Nardi floor shift....
