1952 Lancia Aurelia B52 Vignale Coupe
Chassis # B52 1026
There were only 98 Aurelia B52 chassis made, all for custom coachwork. This car has special coachwork by Vignale of Turin, Italy. The design is attributed to Michelotte. There were only a handful of Vignale's built. The B52 chassis is a longer version of the B20 to allow special coachwork. All the chassis were made in right hand drive configuration. It is powered by a 2.0 liter V-6 engine and has the correct Nardi dual carburetor conversion that produces 70 bhp@4800 rpm. A complete restoration by KCA in Milan was performed in early 1990's. It has been a consistent award winner including one at the 1995 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
