    Chassis 4

    I was out today doing some parts location & purchasing, and was asked "did you know there is a Stratos being painted over the road?" and came across this

    Someone should tell them that the reversing lights are in the wrong place. Shame!

    Guy, it's one of the prototype chassis, the reversing lights are where the factory put them, the central hoop spoiler is on fabricated 'U' brackets that are bolted into the roof, its been to Italy and been verified by both Bertone and Lancia, their is some suggestion that this might be the first car to have the rear and central hoop spoilers (certainly the fabricated 'U' brackets add credence to that idea). The current owner has had it for the last 17 years, and done approx. 60K (miles) in it in that time. It has 'wing' mirrors on both doors, but they are both left hand mirrors, which makes it look a bit odd, but again verified by the factory as an original build item. Some real oddities, all the panels are stamped 4, but the chassis plate is stamped *001003*, again all verified by the factory.

    Nothing unusual about sun visors Tim. They all had them!
