Historical Car Raises Fund

Saturday October 15, 2005
A car once belonging to Italian dictator Benito Mussolini has been auctioned in Toronto to raise money for a hospital for sick children: it raised $164,561 and drew bidders from all over the world, presumably because the car is old, possibly unique and in excellent condition, having been fully restored. Car fans might wish to know it was a 1939 Lancia Astura.
