    Massive suspension springs! This is going to be a wild child.
    I first saw one in Modena at the hotel Fini in 1986, owned by a Swiss couple that were using it for sporty vacation travel.

    The first pic is of the car at the shipping agent ready to be sent to Italy. I pulled this Stratos from the second floor of a barn in Switzerland many years ago. It had been in a small wreck when the rear clip popped open like a giant airbrake and spun the car. It has been fully redone by the top Stratos guys in Italy. Most of the true race cars were beaten up pretty badly from rallying. Pile of 24-valve parts in second pic. Many trips to Italy over the years hunting down hard to find competition parts. All coming together at last!

    Fabulous! Great to see one actually using the 24V. Do you happen to have a set of 24v carb manifolds spare or one I could use for a pattern? I have slide throttles only.
    PM me if you can help, thanks
    Will
