Chassis 1062 is a 1955 Lancia Aurelia B24S Spider, one of only 181 produced that year, bodied by Pinin Farina and finished in red over a light leather interior. Built on 14 June 1955 and first registered four days later, it entered the Piccolo Collection in the early 1970s as their inaugural acquisition, underwent light renovation, and has remained with that family for roughly five decades. All major components — engine, body, chassis, differential, front suspension, and steering box — are original and matching, verified by a Lancia Certificate of Authenticity.
