Incredible history with authenticated Gilco frame
Discover the captivating tale of the 1942 Lancia Aprilia Barchetta 1500, a true automotive gem with a rich history. Originally transformed into a barchetta racer by Scuderia O.S.A (Officina Specializzata Auto) under the expertise of Agostino Accadia, this Lancia, the second creation by Accadia, boasts a Gilco frame originally commissioned by Luigi Beluci for a car that was built and tested by Sabatino Paganelli. After some testing, Sabatino was instructed by Luigi to use another type of Gilco frame (a 10 S.I.) for their race purpose build. This gave Agostino Accadia the opportunity to build his race car with the frame not used by Beluci. Agostino commissioned coach builder Tutu Turini located in the outskirts of Naples in Chiaia to make a steal body for his Gilco frame. After a few races Accadia determined his car was too heavy to compete and begin to use it has his daily driver after installing a standard windshield. Accadia went on to build his 3rd car using a Gilco frame type 203 and was very successful with it between 1958-1961.
Rediscovered in Sicily, the car retained its original engine and frame, but with a non-salvageable body. Acquired by gentleman in Milan the new owner embarked on a meticulous restoration, collaborating with Agostino's son to craft a custom aluminum body. Authenticated by Marino Colombo, a seasoned Gilco employee, this Barchetta stands as a stunning testament to automotive history. Historical photos and a Gilco frame blueprint add to its allure.
