The Aurelia 50th anniversary event was the result of the efforts of Italian, Francesco Gandolfi, Mike Jennings from England, and in very large part by Daniel Pottier, President of Lancia Club France.
The event brought together almost 50 beautiful and sometimes rare Lancia Aurelias from all over Europe to the end of the Via Aurelia in Arles, France. This well organized event, that treated the participants to great French food and wines, was a wonderful social success and included a caravan on the Via Aurelia to Camorgue, Aigues Mort, Baux de Provence, Post du Gard and on to the great Roman Aqueduct.
This sleek, black RHD B24 Spider with custom Fontana hard top and unusual pop out door handles is owned by American, Jason Wright. Jason grew up in San Francisco but now lives in Italy. The car was once owned by famous Italian cinema actor, Raf Vallone. When Vallone owned the car, the custom top and door handles were added.
This 1954 Aurelia Berlina with B12 2.2 litre engineis one of two, built by Pininfarina, known as La Florida. The car was previously owned by ALC member, Richard May. The Florida was the design excercise for the Flaminia Berlina introduced in 1956. The car is presently owned by Paul Koot.
