  1. Stance of the long-tail: If I could get my hands on another short-tail front clip I could build another variation:
  2. The mighty S4 supercharged and turbocharged. Reportedly they produced as much as 1000 hp! There are stories Lancia hid nitrous on board in the roll cage tubing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lancia_Delta_S4#:~:text=The Lancia Delta S4 is,by European sanctioning body FIA.
  3. Has anyone in the USA ordered from USCP lately? Did your order arrive okay? Interested in placing an order. I placed an order with Scale Production in November and it still hasn't arrived.
  4. Impressive tube work.
  5. Nice looking project, I'll be following. I am currently building the Lancia Beta Montecarlo in both long and short-tail. I also have an ongoing project building two versions of the Fiat 131 (gravel and tarmac)
  6. Great photos Marco, thanks for sharing them.
  7. Marco, yes detail photos of the engine are difficult to find for the Beta. I have been using the 1/12 scale MFH kit as a reference to help me detail the Esci kit. I decided not to scratch build all the pulleys and belts as they are difficult to see on the finished model. Here are some photos of the MFH kit. Beautiful kit but close to $1,000! Way more than I am willing to spend.
  8. Nice looking project Tom.
  9. Marco, found these replacement decals and have ordered a set. A leap of faith as no image of the actual decals. https://www.bestbalsakits.com/tamiya/tamiya-detail.asp?kitnumber=2958
  10. Wasn't intending to build the long-tail fully but while I have the details worked out thought I would try to bring it along as well.
  11. Look closely at this set (posted earlier) and you will see that pipes from opposite sides connect to the same collector. The kit headers are not designed this way, I'm sure for simplicity.
  12. A Mustang body I did to fit this SS chassis.
  13. What Steamboat said.
  14. This appears to an Olsonite Eagle wheel
