FORD ESCORT RS COSWORTH CAMEL 1996 EL CORTE INGLES ENRICO BERTONE

 

This particular car practically spurs me to get my hands on model making. Used to get the same exact decal and put it on a Burago. I was shocked that a friend made an offer to keep it. Now what we have here, great same livery on an IXO with proper Cromodoro wheels.

I believe Bertone managed to get on podium in this particular year, after having won it all out before

BMW 635 CSi MARLBORO 1983 GIAU MACAU HAN STUCK

Merry  New Year.

Another 635, this one hit the streets of Macau with real conviction and ended up as a winner in the hands of Han Stuck in 1983. Built from plastic Heller which has glaring limitations. This however has been mitigated by additional parts from Starter and other kits and it turned out not that bad at all.

LANCIA DELTA ASTRA MARLBORO PEDRO DIEGO 1992 RALLYE CATALUNYA

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of you out there. While watching Tulsa rolling over Hawaii, I have here Pedro Diego's Lancia. There were many versions of Pedro car which were liveried differently from one Rally to another. This one surprisingly carries no Tag Heuer sponsorship that he has been long associated with.

TOYOTA CELICA ST205 CAMPOFRIO MARLBORO JOSE MARIA PONCE 1998 EL CORTE INGLES

At the tail end of its service, this ST205 became less competitive and couldn't give the much needed lift to Ponce in this 1998 Rally El Corte Ingles. Still it is one of the best looking ST205 around.

BMW 635CSi LUCKY STRIKE 1983 ETCC DELCOURT SWYSEN BAERT

An iconic race machine, before the existence of the mighty M3.

TOYOTA COROLLA WRC BENSON & HEDGES KANKKUNEN 2001 EL CORTE INGLES

The one that fits both the man and the machine. B&H in its loudest color scheme for a colorful driver. Juha Kankkunen has more than 150 world rally starts to his credential. A Finnish who's not going to finish that easy.

TOYOTA CELICA GT-4 ST185 BELGA 1994 BOUCLES DE SPA CHATROIT

Actual car as raced in 1994 Ypres Rally. The same chassis that won Rallye Monte Carlo the year before
