About the 1938 Aprilia Sport by Zagato

Based on the standard Aprilia model, the Aprilia Sport by Zagato, nicknamed "Aerodinamica" because of the streamilined body, was built in few units between 1937 and 1938.

One of these specials won the under-1,500cc sport class at the 1938 Mille Miglia, driven by Luigi Villoresi.
