There is also a s/c Aprilia creation as well.

I think Ade's correct. Look at the wheels.

Fascinating!! 

Talk of a Nardi head on an Aurelia engine and 160bhp. 

Also of an Aurelia engine in a version of the Nardi-Danese I'd never heard of.

Anyone know more of either of these?

This popped up with a LOT of Nardi info:

Also at  http://8w.forix.com/rear-engines-postwar.html from Neil's post is a rear view of the Mono J-K Lancia, which I realise has been mentioned in the long ago 'Interesting Lancia Facts' thread
