Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Cream wheels, Michelin tires, Carello headlights, floor shift.

Condition

Scuffed old paint with a field of blisters on the deck lid. Good older interior with light creases. Sound chrome. Old undercoat with light exterior overspray. Crazed steering wheel center but very good wood rim. A sound and usable older cosmetic restoration with visible flaws that need attention.

Market commentary

Highly coveted for many reasons including rarity, design and performance, if there's one Lancia to have it's the B24S Spider America. This one appears to be sound but it is definitely aged and was on static display in the Gnutti Collection for many years. Its long dormancy suggests the new owner will have to face some recommissioning issues but the parsimonious bid it brought here is unreasonably low even taking that and the tired paint into account.
