Re: Opinions on Hasegawa 1/24 Lancia Stratos HF 1975 Safari Rally

Overall it's a very nice kit even though it has no engine. I built another version of it. I do not like the way the body has to be spread to put on chassis though. I got around this by cutting the rear deck loose, then the built chassis can be passed through front half of the body and then re-attach the rear deck. This also allows tthe bulkhead to be built up to fit tighter in the body. My decals were very brittle and I had some cracking problems though. I plan to paint the green areas when I build my Safari version.
