Oooh, that looks nice. Always loved the 037 - had a Monte and always thought the 037 was how that car should have been.
Following on from his Delta S4 replica.....

yes Guy ........ that looks really good..........
Excuse my ignorance........ what exact Eng / Gbox would he use in that.........
Originals were the Lampredi twin cam (2.1 litre I think) with a 16v head and Volumex Supercharger. But bigger than the one you find on the Fiat/Lancias of the era. Engine was also upright and not canted over, inline and not transverse. I also think it used a ZF box.
Micks car appears to use the right engine, smaller supercharger but I'm not sure of the gearbox he's using. Audi?
Guy
I always thought these things had the Fiat Abarth 131 engine in them?
EDIT: I should say, is the Lampredi the same as the fiat abarth unit?

Good stuff.
I always keep my eye out for a Lancia Scorpion(Monte Carlo for you guys), just in case I decide to build an 037 some day. That Fiat Abarth engine and the gearbox, seems like it would be a challenge to hunt down.
Car will be at Race Retro this weekend on the Club Lancia Sport stand.

Car is advertised here http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C632910 I should imagine reserve has a long way to go.
Any body seen the car in the flesh? Some of the mould edges and detailing look like they need a little work.
