Hey all, finished another one now....turning into the regular production line over here.....
I am sure a lot of you will be familiar with the classic form of the Lancia Stratos rally car, and for those of you that aren't, it was just plain dominant!! Lancia won 3 consecutive manufacturers titles with this car and they got them pretty convincingly too! Oh well, enough propoganda for the Stratos, enjoy the pics ![]() I hope you likes....be nice ![]() Ray P.S What happened to Del-R, he was building the same kit.....

Phe-nom-in-al Ray, you are becoming quite the WRC production machine! Beautiful car and replica.
The decal up on the front louvered panel - looks like you cut it into dozens of little pieces? Any tips to impart? |

Awesome job! A very cool car! The marriage of Fiat, Lancia and Bertone is a beautiful thing!

Is this the Hasegawa kit? Did you use the Hasegawa PE set?
Excellent work, one of my alltime favorites! The lines on that car are just beautiful! Proof you don't have to be low and sleek to go fast. |

Thanks guys
![]() Phil....the trick with the decals on the front over the louvre is to apply it flat and to get it to snuggle into each vent, then once it has dried to carefully slit the decal over each vent and then use some MicroSol to get the decal to conform over the entire louvred section - you will want the new Xacto blade to slit the decal ![]() Dan, it is the Hasegawa kit but I couldn't find the P/E set anywhere, I checked hlj and hobby search and they are both sold out ![]() I have the same problem with the Lancia 037 P/E set. Thanks everyone for the feedback, it is appreciated. Ray

Hey Ray, If you are after PE for the 037, go to Rainbow 10 and get the M&A etched set. Better than the Hasegawa or S27 ones. Renaissance also makes a detail set, haven't got that yet.

The Lancia Stratus was a Group 4 car, which pre-dated the Group B formula. In it's heyday it did tend to win a lot - including the Manufacturers Chapionship in '74, '75 and '76 that Ray mentioned. Also Sandro Munari won the first Drivers Cup in 1977 in the above car. |

Anyway, back to the model. My dad has a cutaway poster of that car, every time I look at it, it get's more interesting. Did the model have an engine and full suspension? |

Beutiful job Ray. Did you have any big problems building it? I thought you or somebody said something about getting the body onto the chassis.
