Title: B20 Aurelia Grille required Post by: bruciebonuz on 22 November, 2013, 10:59:54 AM As my potential Aurelia purchase looms a little closer and as I think it could take quite a while for to find these (no doubt ruinously expensive) parts I thought I would post now.
I need a front grille for a 4th series B20. I know they make repros in Italy but would prefer an original one. If you have one or spot one, please let me know. At some point I would also like a set of Borrani wheels (but thats low on the priority list).

Didn't realise until I arrived but was able to retrace my route and find it. I got another nice one but the fit was off by up to an inch - these were made to the car... PERHAPS they differ by series and all of a series are the same? I straighten what I had - hands and hide hammers - and that's how it stayed to this day. Simon told me not to straighten the little squiffy bar in the middle of the bonnet scoop. I didn't insist on the grill staying the same when I sold it but was pleased to see it recently with the scars there to enjoy still.

So what did you think was the noise when you drove over it actually was??!!
Even though I have bought a genuine B 12 grille, there are slight differences in size.......which seems to be the case of all Aurelia grilles. Will keep an eye out, why not post up a wanted advert on viva-lancia site too?

Nice, though... Title: Re: B20 Aurelia Grille required Post by: bruciebonuz on 23 November, 2013, 07:13:32 AM Who's offering?? ;D ....you did.....witnessed by dozens on this forum....time to stump up Santa!!! ;) P Sadly, yes....I will have to ask Santa I guess! |
