    I remember seeing Walter Rohrl & Christian Geistdorfer in one on the RAC rally, when they put Christian centrally in the back of the car for weight distribution/traction.

    Shame that not more of these have survived because they are every bit as good,if not better, than the wall-to-wall Escorts & they did win the WRC 3 times.The big problem,of course,as with most(all!) Italian cars of the time,was that they corroded heroically!
    This example sounds terrific.

    Remember seeing Marku Alen driving one in the mid 1970s on a Scottish Rally, awesome noise. Walther Rohrl could also make one shift at a fair rate.

    I know escorts of the day rusted but the a 131 at the same time used to rust really bad it must be difficult to get a good body shell nowadays but I can’t wait to see it in action hopefully you will put a entry in for the Galway summer stages will be over spectating for that

    Complimenti 👏
    Questa 131 sembra davvero molto performante
    E anche il pilota ha il piede pesante 👍

    Is that the 2litre Lancia twin cam engine? Even the road version of these were quick in their day, 150 bhp if I remember.

    • @neviozivkovic4545
      @neviozivkovic4545 2 месяца назад

      No. That’s the 2L Fiat engine that Lancia got after Fiat bought Lancia.

    • @MarkGardiner-g2y
      @MarkGardiner-g2y 2 месяца назад +1

      @@neviozivkovic4545 So... the engine I seen put in 131 super and Strada Abraths in the late eighties (yes they were rebuilds) which said "Lancia twin cam" right across the rocker cover were not Lancia?

    • @neviozivkovic4545
      @neviozivkovic4545 2 месяца назад +1

      ⁠I fitted a 2L 132 engine into my 124 sport, with the Abarth kit, and ran a bearing years later which threw a Conrod Thru the block, I struggled to find another block and a friend sold me a “Lancia” block , essentially identical. Those were “ Lampredi” engines born 1400, evolved to 2L , then modified by Karl Abarth to eventually end up in the Lancia Delta Integrale Evo2 supercharged turbocharged. My humble opinion. I still have my 124 Sport coupe.

    Le luci posteriori e scocca della 131racing. Quando finirono le scocche originali !

    • @ClaudioViano
      @ClaudioViano 14 дней назад

      Ma quando mai!! La 131 racing non ha niente in comune con la Abarth Rally, ha solo un motore un po' più potente delle altre versioni di serie e qualche tarocco estetico. La Abarth Rally ha un altro motore, altre sospensioni, cambio ZF, tutto con attacchi specifici e scocca con numerose parti di resina che la racing non ha mai visto. I fanali posteriori furono aggiornati sulle scocche da competizione originali per seguire il restiyling della macchina di serie, che quella da corsa doveva pubblicizzare. Quelli anteriori no perché i fari rettangolari singoli della nuova 131 non avrebbero permesso di montare due lampade abbaglianti per lato. Nessuna scocca della 131 racing è mai stata omolagata nel gr4.

    Era l'epoca quando in Italia si facevano ottime auto con del pessimo acciaio sovietico che arruginisca solo a guardarlo, ecco perché la Fiat Tipo e tutte le altre piattaforme da lei derivate (Alfa e Lancia) erano zincate per ovviare alla ruggine.
    Adesso ci restano solo i ricordi!!!

    • @marioaldopasetti6794

      Acciaio sovietico!? E in cosa differisce una lega di ferro e carbonio sovietica da una italiana... o della Nuova Zelanda? Cos'è, ci sono diverse razze di ferro o carbonio? 😆😆🤣 Il ferro arrugginisce tutto uguale. Si sono sviluppati migliori trattamenti anticorrosione e si sono progettate le scocche con appositi fori di drenaggio dell'umidità intelligenti nella parte bassa, ad esempio nei brancardi.
