I have a Lancia Aprilia 439 from 1940.
It seems that this car was "carrozzato" by the factory itself. I found this model in an old Lancia leaflet under the name of "special 4 door, 4 light saloon".
Very recently a car like that was offered for sale in Internet under the name of "Aprilia Farina lusso". I found also a photo of this model in the www. page of the Lancia Club Italy.
I'm restoring now my car and I have problems with the reconstruction of the door wooden frames and doorsteps.
I would like to know whether any copies of technical drawings with sizes of all wooden frames for this model of car body are available anywhere.
If no drawings available I would be grateful for any photos of the original wooden construction.

Re: aprilia 439 special saloon
Hi,
do you have some more info on which model it is exactly, perhaps the WWW-adress where the car on the web is pictured. I do have an Aprilia sales brochure that gives a sort of see-through view that includes the wooden frame but think this is a different model Aprilia upon your description.
cheers,
Jorn
