Description
LANCIA BELNA – 1934
An elegant Italian-inspired French saloon
A particularly attractive two-tone finish
Recently overhauled engine
In fine condition
Produced in France in the 1930s, the Lancia Belna is today a particularly interesting testament to the history of the Italian make on the French market. Elegant and technically sophisticated for its time, it features the characteristic lines of Lancia cars from the interwar period, with a compact body and harmonious proportions.
The example on display, dating from 1934, is beautifully presented in an elegant two-tone beige and brown colour scheme, accentuated by its numerous chrome fittings. Its distinctive grille, generously curved wings, running boards and rear-mounted spare wheel lend it all the charm of a 1930s car.
The interior, finished in colours to match the bodywork, has a particularly refined feel. The beige upholstery, door trim, headlining and dashboard have all been restored and form a cohesive whole. The vintage instrument cluster, the steering wheel with its slender spokes and the various controls all contribute fully to the character of this Lancia.
The mechanics have also received a great deal of attention. The engine, in particular, has just been overhauled; photographs taken during the dismantling reveal a thorough inspection of its internal components, notably the crankshaft and connecting rods. The underbody, moreover, is clean and well-maintained.
A rarity on the French market, this 1934 Lancia Belna combines an elegant appearance, a recently overhauled engine and the undeniable charm of a pre-war car. It will be an attractive prospect for enthusiasts wishing to take part in historic rallies and events dedicated to cars from this period.
