Not mine (I WISH), but Stratos barnfind coming up for sale with some pics.

You've all got 'eagle' eyes, and you're seeing some new ones. I didn't notice the horns, and I'll have another look for dzus fasteners.
I've seen a black gearstick knob like that before, and a similar gator, so I wasn't including either of those two. I didn't count the Ferrari stickers (why do they stick those on?) Fuel caps shouldn't be black, that's correct too.
No, here are the 10 I'd seen:

1. Air Box
2. Side repeaters in wrong position
3. Front indicators wrong
4. Front fogs wrong
5. Front nose badge wrong type
6. Hazard rocker switch
7. Extra handbrake type lamp
8. 'BERTONE' sticker is wrong
9. Both driver's and passenger side mirrors are wrong (that's a Beta one on the driver's side too)
10. Exhaust

Be interesting to see what they go for.
I've recently heard through the Grapevine that the Stradale owned by former club member Tony Graham is shortly going up for sale in the uk with a £250k price tag. It has some history with the Stuck family, but group 4 cars were that price not long ago.

Must have been on top gear, wiper blade has fallen off

I can't see any Zeus fasteners on the nose section but that might just be the camera angles.

Yep, you're right Craig, Dzus fasteners have gone missing. It's a longer list than I thought?
The front tyres are the right size. I think they just look odd in the photo of the front compartment. I'm amazed how they found room in the front for the full spare 7.5 wheel with 205/70 tyre on the original cars.
I've never seen a Stradale this rough. Plenty of group 4s!

The front tyres are the right size. I think they just look odd in the photo of the front compartment. I'm amazed how they found room in the front for the full spare 7.5 wheel with 205/70 tyre on the original cars.

I looked at the picture of the car in side profile & its hard to believe that it is possible to achieve any wheel lock with a wheel/tyre that diameter positioned like that in the arch. The tyre also looks awfully fat in the under bonnet position which made me think it was oversize.

I looked at the switches & thought they were in a non standard order but missed the Hazard switch "Amateur!"

The tyres are 14", but the rolling diameter is huge.
The 15" TB15 that people use on the front is 224mm section and 612mm rolling diameter.
The XWX 205/70/14 has a smaller 209mm section, but a much larger 644mm rolling diameter.
I know that similarly shod GT4 Ferraris don't have much lock, so maybe this 70 series tyre diameter is the reason? 'Footwells right on the front axle line, and all that.
A lot of 308 owners change to 16" rims and lower profile tyres, but I love the period look of the 14" tyres on those and the Stradale Stratos.

Those Pirelli XR's I used for Chatsworth are 648. Could just get full lock on rims with 0 offset but rubbed bulkhead on lock over bumps till they wore down a bit. Had to also trim the front of the wheelarch by a few mm too. Actually handled sweet on them though so KPI must have been right for the taller profile.

I like the look with the taller tyres too. It just suits the car design. Low profile road wheels look puny in camparison

[ChrisCar6]

My theory is that this car has had a front end shunt. Hence wrong lights / badge / dzus.

[Guy Mayers]

Nobody spotted the high level brake light? Guess a lot of it is the "federalisation?"

I'm surprised that no one mentioned the most glaring mis-information. It is listed as a 1972 Stratos, there were no Strstos built in 1972. Body shell #3 is consider the first Startos built, in was completed in October of 1973, body shell #5 was next and it was completed in November of 1973. All the rest were built in 1974 and later.
