'Project' is probably better than 'kit'.
You'll notice the stiffener on the underside of the front clam? As an original would and should have.
who supplied the body panels ???
This is a reply to an email sent asking for more info from Phil Hotham
My Stratos is a genuine stratos It was built by Marchesi in Italy for me on the original Jigs and tooling and the fiberglass parts where also produced in Italy .
All the suspension also came from Italy . I have fitted all new AP calipers and discs the brake disc bells I had produced which are correct to the original group 4 cars , tandem stratos pedal box I have a new stratos steering rack , full set of instruments ( gauges ) group 4 dash board , new heater box , blower , full set of Bilstein shocker’s and eibch springs , new gears which are dog gears from Italy , the gearbox is half built , I have drive shafts new CV joints etc.
The Dino engine is stripped which I have a new Arrow crankshaft and conrods , new forged piston set and all the parts
To build the engine . There are all the front to back cooling pipes , radiator , weber carbs and manifold , windscreen etc
There are also all the lights and mounting frames which are all correct
There are loads of new parts which I have collected that I have not listed I think the car is about 96% complete
I also have 2 eibach anti roll bars on order which should be delivered in the next weeks or so .
I also have a Nova and heritage dating certificate documents so it can be registered onto a V5c log book .
With a stratos chassis number on the documents which is 1974 .
I have 196 k in the car as it stands
If its of interest to you a could send you photos of the suspension front and rear hubs etc .
Hope this is a help and thanks for your interest .
Kind regards
Phil
