Lancia Stratos 3rd Giro D'Italia 1977/1979 #491/433 by Arena
Lancia Stratos Giro 1977/78
Hand built available ARE791M491 1977 & ARE791M433 1978
These very colourful variants of the Stratos with sponsorship from Rino Fabbri were entered by the Jolly Club for the Giro. In 1977 the event ended in an accident but the following year saw third overall and a class win. The differences between the two versions are on minor decal details and so close attention will be needed to the placement images. We have a query on the colour of the front spoiler on the earlier version as it looks darker in event photos, but the reproduction of images that we have isn’t great.

About Arena
Accurate, well detailed resin kits with white metal ancillaries and excellent photo-etched details. Instructions sometimes slightly vague but normally adequate. Castings on some subjects can be a little rough but more recent releases have all been excellent. Due to the amount of etch, they can be quite fiddly to build but in experienced hands make excellent miniatures. Hand built models also available to order. Made in Italy.
