Here's where we differ--you got a rare resin engine; I handbuilt the entire engine and will be doing so with the rest of the engine bay out of plastic, spare parts, and copper wire. I will try to get some photos of that and post it on here sometime soon. Anyway, since I plan to open the front lid, I have done some searching and found some pictures--here is a bunch of pictures of the street Stratos, whose front trunk is almost identical to that of the rally Stratos.

Good luck with this project; I will be following it and hopefully posting my own here pretty soon.  |
Sounds like my project is a walk in the park compared to yours, I thought long and hard about opening the front but decided against it, just wasnt sure if I could pull it off or not and I was also worried about weakening the shell too much. I think this project is gonna take long enough detailing the engine bay and interior alone and Im happy doing that, however I'll look forward to seeing some pictures of your build on here too - I also really like the Red & Black Pirelli livery too.
