Also making an appearance at the Concorso Italiano is the Ghia Streamline X “Gilda,” a blast from a futuristic past. Carrozzeria Ghia is another Turin-based design house with a long and storied history. Yes, that’s the same Ghia as in the VW Karman-Ghia. Ghia first made its name in the 1920s, building lightweight aluminum bodies for racing cars from the likes of Alfa Romeo, Fiat and Lancia. Indeed, the Ghia-bodied Alfa Romeo 6C 1500 won the 1929 Mille Miglia.
