I am currently building a 037 stradale and a 037 corse (group b) replica
In the 90s i dealt in integrales on a large scale
In 2002 i built a stratos group 4 replica
I currently also own a RS500 group a race car
I run a nissan stagea rs4v (skyline estate) But still i desired more attention (must be an ugly bugger)
Anyway at great expense i have recently aquired a set of moulds taken from a geniune 037 Rallye stradale and all the group b alternative moulds
I then employed a couple of the top guys from the late TVR (development mould production foreman these are the guys who created the chimera from a block of crazy foam) and we set about modifying the moulds to fit a standard montecarlo Front was no problem all fits amazingly well and very simple conversion The rear was a different story
The cars are now pannelled up and the stradale has gone for paint once painted final moulds will be taken from convertd rear quarters
The full kits in stradale and corse will be available in the next couple of months to recoup some of the cost of my project www.rallye037replica.com (site is due for an update in the next few days)i have been busy sorting rear wheelbase and lowering kit these have now been produced and can be supplied as well as full bodykit
A geniune 037 tradale is going to set you back a minimum of 50k a group b corse will demand up to £150k (if anyone knows of a cheap genuine 037 please phone me as i would be a serious purchaser)
However i have 12 montecarlo cars available from 1-3k
I can supply a full bodykit for 3k
Drop a dedra turbo thema turbo fiat coupe turbo or alfa v6 24v in it
Neglect your wife and children for a couple of months and have a serious exotic replica for well under the cost of the neigbour second hand beemer GO ON DARE TO BE DIFFERENT my no on my website

The original 037 is a molested montecarlo/scorpion tub (if you can tell me how to make a replica without one of these im all ears)
However you dont need to start with a mint tub so you could be saving a rare car from certain death (creating an awsome replica and saving the planet)
3k for a 18 piece bodykit thats taken from a 70k car in choice of stradale and group b made to very high quality by TVR/S top tradesmen (remind me how much is the cheapie mr2/mx5 kit

lETS REMEMBER THIS IS A REPLICA The car i am building has castor camber rose jointed adj coilover uprated rear arms so should handle very well (a standard good monte handles amazingly for a 30yr old car The engine in the car is a motorsport prepared low comp balanced 2ltr twincam ported cammed runnig injection on programable zytec management turboed massive intercooler in back backed up by charge cooler up front it came out of a stratos rep that the owner had spent 6k on engine i have spoke to guy it is reputed to run 3 bar boost and produce 345bhp considering a genuine 037 produced 205bhp and the works evo 2 340bhp in it final year my rep should be quite quick enough I have drove the car only once before start of project it did feel very quick i I do know what quick is (look a my list of personal vehicle)

IS IT RAINING UP THERE YOUR HEAD MUST BE SO HIGH IN THE CLOUDS Exchanging any 4 pot lancia fiat twincam engine is a straight forward swap the only setback is restrictive room around turbo for the latter engines as induction and exhaust were reversed on these engine in 1984 as for the gear linkage Hawk cars sell a conversion to convert montecarlo box to later alfa v6 lancia dedra thema and fiat16v turbo (all the same box with slightly different final drive ratios)i bought the conversion kit for my stratos replica it included all engine mounts engine stabalizer and gear linkage rods for £495 I have years of experiance with lancias having imported over 100 integrales and prepared and maintained grp n and grp a integrales The most recent larger engine replacement i did was v6 3.0 24v alfa in place of standard 2.0ltr 4 cyl monte it took 50 hrs
(see wwww.stratossupersite.com galleries syndicate) As for the 037 stradale for 50k euros the advert is over 10 yrs old if it was for sale now id be checking in at the airport with cash in my pocket 1 recently made over £50 k on ebay was not sold as it had £80k reserve on it www.autocollections.com have 1 for sale at just over £90k its quite a nice 1 so atatty genuine 037 will be how much more than a replica thanks for everyone input
