The irony would be it being bought for bits to restore a stripped to the shell "parts car" B20. 

For all the tall stories its too nice a car to get shunted dealer to dealer.  Fingers crossed it finds a broad minded owner and gets some use.

Any ideas as to what the little unit to the rear of the carburettor is for ? (In the ebay photos). And the distributor car, looks very 'Fiatish'

Looks like a fuel cut off valve.

 It looks very similar to the one that Sebastien mentions on the previous page.

What I find surprising is that they still maintain the Fangio/Aurelia/Carrera connection. I would have thought publication like this would at least have the correct info/description of the car. Or am I being a bit touchy on the subject. After all, they did an article on a B24 some time back, you'd imagine they would spot the differences !!

This is not a Lancia it is a Fiat chassis with various other bits from Italian cars and an Aurelia engine.
It is a fantasy car!
