Another model in this small scale. I have already glued one Lancia 037, this one is in more familiar colors. This Lancia 037 won the 1983 Monte Carlo Rally thanks to driver Walter Röhrl and co-driver Christian Geistdörfer with the iconic Martini design. It was a breakthrough victory for the rear-wheel drive against stronger competition with all-wheel drive (Audi Quattro)

I modified the model - the high cabin didn't suit me, so I lowered it by 2 mm, it's not ideal, but it's probably closer to reality... other modifications - modified grille with recessed lights (also the rear part), slightly modified wheels, modified light bar, I added a pad and I made the car dirty. For comparison, I'm adding a photo of both Lancia cars and also a photo of both cars of the Walter Röhrl/Christian Geistdörfer duo (Fiat and Lancia). A few photos:
