Lancia Stratos Zero

stratos75 · 03-15-2008, 08:04 PM

Hi, friends!
I'm Mikhail. It's my first post and I want it would be interesting to look my Thread.
So, I decided to build a scale model of Lancia Stratos Zero in my lovely scale - 1/24.
The Bertone Stratos was designed by Marcello Gandini, who also penned the Lamborghini Miura and
Lamborghini Countach. The Stratos concept was a development of the Bertone designed Alfa Romeo Carabo
Concept from 1968, also a Gandini creation. Access to the interior of the Stratos Zero was done through
the hinged windscreen. The Bertone designed Lancia Stratos Zero prototype used the same engine as the Lancia
1600 HF Fulvia.

My project was begun when my brother created a 3D model of body, engine hood and interior by using the PhotoModeler and CATIA programs.

Then he had making a milling work on his home milling machine with computer numerical control.

And I received some moulds and one complete detail (hood).

Then I made a body and mountings from epoxy resin and a carbon.

That's for today.

Welcome to AF!

Looks like a very interesting project.

Would you mind posting your text in the normal (size 2) font? Some of us would rather not have to squint our eyes to read your descriptions.

Very interesting project, I never even knew this car existed. Looks great so far, can't wait to see more and welcome to AF!

Whaat?

This is brilliant!

Absolutely gorgeous, is the model itself in carbon fibre? That sounds a bit strange, are you planning to make some limited copies of it, I know some might want to buy some!

I wonder how hard that program is to use. Please post more!!!

look like a pretty expensive and interesting project. however, i'm not sure if this is still car modeling. i'd say it's more machinig than modeling

thadude · 03-16-2008, 04:37 PM

Looks a realy intrestion project.
You're planning on doing resins of this model to sell ?

DarrenGR · 03-17-2008, 04:04 AM

Wow! Must be great to have that kind of access to technology and certainly can't fault your subject choice - I love that car!

Can't wait for the updates to come and details of an available release?? More info now please!!!!!
