That’s a rare and coveted Lancia, I can’t tell you the model. Very technically advanced, I think (?) an aluminum V6.

A Pininfarina shape.

Looked it up -
The Aurelia B24 Spider from the 1950’s. 2.5 V6, 115 mph, rear transaxle with rear de Dion suspension. Only 240 made.

Semi-exactly correct, BB. From my notes from the place I found the photo (BaT?): "1958 Lancia Aurelia B24S is one of 521 convertibles built during three years of production".

Here's a square windshield playing on the ice - handles pretty well!

Posh event - I see vintage Ferraris and Maseratis out there, crazy.
