Which Kit Italian Supercar guide

[Strat Fan]

Has anyone here got a copy of the aforementioned guide from circa 1992 please?
It featured sections on a number of the Strato's replicas that were around at the time as well as a number of Lamborghini Countach replicas & may a Daytona replica too.

[ProtoTipo]

I used to have that Craig.
I sold it to Dave Watson.
If it's the one that included the following?:

Courtney Garage blue stradale Transformer with yellow dummy centre cap Compomotives
Yellow CAE Corse stradale, including photos of the Ferrari engined Corse I?
Demo Hawk in Alitalia colours
Yellow Dino engined Transformer etc.

[Strat Fan]

That's the one Chris

[ChrisCar6]

Not that one, no.
I have:
Classic replicas Oct 1989 Transformer/Lancia comparison
Component Car Classics April 1989 Transformer review
Which Kit Oct & Dec 1989 Litton Corse review
Kit Car Dec 1989 Litton Corse

Plus a few more recent ones.

Could you copy the Kit Car Dec 1989 Litton Corse article for me, the chassis for my car made be part of that article. Send me a PM and I'll give you my email address.

I may have a copy of it Craig... I'll have a look this evening.

Guy

[Strat Fan]

Your chassis is in the guide I am looking for Corky which is why I thought of it. The 1989 magazines predate everything Litton apart from the original Yellow Demo car.

Guy, thanks if you would please.

Was there a section on here somewhere where magazine scans could be added anyway?

[Guy Mayers]

Looked this evening.

Strangely it was in the first box I looked in.

Now, I wonder what else I've been looking for for a while?

Do you want me to bring it to Silverstone Craig?

Ther is a a catogory in the articles part of the forum for magazine scans...

Hi Craig,

I have it I think, its No.2.

There is one article titled Stratos survival that shows Hughes Demo car/chassis with a V8 Ferrari and Metro brakes. Another article titled Luckless litton and another titled Blue Stratos.

I can post it to you (I'd like it back) or I can scan the relevant bits for you and email them across.

[ChrisC]

I Have a copy as well, it had an article on my old yellow Dino engined Transformer in the back.

This is my chassis, I believe.

The front 3/4's are one & the same Corky!

Can you remember what 5 stud pcd. it had Chris?

So I wonder where it was for a few years?
I think it was 2005 when it surfaced at Tony Favarins and Lionel sold it ,with some Favarin bodywork, on to the USA.
Maybe NoCorseChris can shed some light?
Was Corkys chassis at the same place Chris got his "S" chassis from?
Something to do with an ill-fated F40 replica project?

[Darkspeed]

Likewise ;)

I used to have that one somewhere aswell as the guide. Not sure where they have ended up!

I've scanned the old mags I have, Component Car Classics (April '89), Classics & Relicas (March/April '90) & Kit Car (December '89). Once I find out from Ian how to add them to the forum effectively I would suggest that we should all scan the historic articles to add to the archive for everyone to access.

Where's that modded front panel now Andrew?

I can't Chris, I struggled like hell to afford the car in the first place and never had the money to get it where it should have been. In the end I had to give in to the cost of running a young family and sold it to a Japanese buyer. Would love to know where it is now?

[ProtoTipo]

Hi Chris,

I imagine it would have been 5x108mm, given that there was access to spare Ferrari parts?

How do you want them uploaded Craig?
If its as pics like you have sent me then you should be able to do that now yourself, if you want them as pdf or some other form let me know.

Thanks

[Darkspeed]

A Bedforshire landfill or perhaps still in Lawrence's garage.

Thanks Andrew.
Obviously you must not have wanted that part of the kit?!

That is the car I purchased, the body work from that collection of parts has become brittle and unworkable, so the car now has a Lister-Bell body.

Corky

[john]

Yes I know Corky.
I'm asking where it was between leaving Hugh Carson and when it turned up at Tony Favarins in 2005.
I crated it up on behalf of Napiersport and it was shipped to Reed Herman at that time.
