LANCIA 037 STRADALE
PRODUCED: 1982
NUMBER BUILT: 207
PRICE: $47,000 (conv.)
When Lancia needed 200 road cars to enter Group B, it (and Abarth) put a lot more thought into the 037’s pedigree than its name.
Under the Bertonedesigned Kevlar body panels was a Stratoslike structure and new tube frames with highend suspension.
A blown 2.0-litre four bolted to a ZF transaxle offered 153kW on road or as much as 260kW when racing. Plenty to push 960kg and fast enough to beat Audi’s quattro A2 in 1983 and become WRC’s last rear-wheel drive winner.
