Nice work on your car, got detail/interior pics?
Hi Steve,

you are not exactly right...
Hasegawa Martini kit is the 92 Monte Carlo rally's Auriol car, but it exists a 93 gravel version, the 93 Acropolis rally with former world champion Carlos Sainz.
I have both, and don't think it does exist another one representing a super delta.

the Martini kit is really too high for a tarmac version, that's sure ! the tarmac version was "down on the tarmac" and used perfectly slick wide tyres... I saw it a few years ago in the "Mondial de l'automobile" in Paris, from the private collection of Prince of Monaco !
Tyres were very impressive !
I think that the gravel version is more accurate...

hope these words will help !

Potsie, great job on the model ! congratulations !

bye
Philippe
