Lancia Aurelia B20S, Series 6 LHD # B20S-1664
The
Lancia Aurelia saw the light of day in the year 1950. The first
models introduced were the sedan, stationcar and limousine. According
to Lancia traditions the Aurelia again was a hallmark in technical
innovation. The car featured a light alloy (aluminium) 60°
V6 engine and a gearbox with clutch fitted to the rear axle (Transaxle
construction) The Transaxle construction made an ideal weight
distribution, on the front and rear axles, possible. The car also
featured a unitary bodywork structure.
In the year 1951 the famous Lancia Aurelia sportscar followed:
The Lancia Aurelia B20 GT series 1 (first car in the so called
GT class).
This magnificent 2+2 coupe model was designed by PininFarina and
the design was a revolution in the early fifties of the twentieth
century.
The advanced mechanics, the light bodywork and the aerodynamic
design made the Aurelia B20 GT a true drivers car.
The car successfully participated in many rally and race events,
like the Mille Migla (finished second place) and at Le Mans (finished
first in its class).
The first Aurelia B20 GT series were powered by a two litre V6
engine, from 1953 (series 3) a more powerful 2.5 litre V6 was
fitted. From 1954 (series 4) a deDion rear axle was fitted which
improved the roadholding even more. The Lancia Aurelia B20 GT
was built until 1958, the B20 GT series 6 was the last model built.
Nowadays the Lancia Aurelia
B20 GT is a very much sought after classic car. The cars are
very hard to find and expensive. Many proud owners use the cars
like they were in "the old days" in racing and rally
events like the historic Mille Miglia.
