Lancia Aprilia Paganelli
In postwar April 1948 Sabatino Paganelli relized that in order to fellow driver Luigi Bellucci, the first of a series of car-based Aprilia's where produced. This first-Lancia Paganelli was a hybrid in the sense that this is an example built on a Fiat chassis-GILC equipped with a 1 liter Lancia engine. More Lancia Paganelli were made a year later, when the engine was increased to 1.8 liters displacement. The Lancia Paganelli got valuable benefits in racing, particularly in hill climb.
