Fiat 131 Abarth - Andrea Zanussi/Arnaldo Bernacchini - 1982 Rally dell'Isola d'Elba


Fiat 131 Abarth - Andrea Zanussi/Arnaldo Bernacchini - 1982 Rally dell'Isola d'Elba

Finally back to uploading something, this is the Totip 131 that Zanussi and Bernacchini (well, only Zanussi i guess, kinda hard to crash a car if you're codriving) crashed on SS27, Rally dell'Isola d'Elba 1982, the third round of that year's Italian championship. Not the most successful of cars, but it looks good, and if you crash you can say you're just being historically accurate.

This is the first day livery, with the Canonica stickers on the front fenders instead of the rears and without whatever logo is on the rear window later on. It's also missing the Stiassi logos on the side windows because the model doesn't allow for them, which is why it looks a bit different from the photos and scale models. The UV mapping is beyond distorting too, so I bothered with 95% of the lines looking good, maybe something slipped out of quality control, sorry about that (only if you notice, otherwise I'm not).

Enjoy this fine piece of betting sponsorship with only a slight hint of tobacco money on it, hope to publish something else without the 11 month wait this time.

Fiat 131 Abarth - Bjorn Waldegard/Hans Thorszelius - 1980 Rallye Montecarlo

    Fiat 131 Abarth - Bjorn Waldegard/Hans Thorszelius - 1980 Rallye Montecarlo    Finally this livery is on the real 131 and not on the Lada... Surprisingly Waldegard came back to the FIAT group for the first two rallies of the 1980 WRC season and, after some steering and braking issues in the first stages and a tyre choice mistake later, he managed a fine 3rd place in Monaco.

Fiat 131 Abarth - Walter Röhrl/Christian Geistdorfer - 1979 Hunsrück Rallye

  Fiat 131 Abarth - Walter Röhrl/Christian Geistdorfer - 1979 Hunsrück Rallye No more Ladas, this is the real rallying box, this time with the winning livery from the 1979 Hunsrück Rallye. Driven by R ö hrl with Geistdorfer on the notes, this car dominated the tricky German event and won by over 11 minutes. In some pictures taken during this rally you can see a third Mobil sticker added during the event to the front bumper, which I haven't put on the car since it wasn't there at the start. A few notes about the skin: it's not possible to make a perfect copy of the real car since the model isn't 100% accurate to the real thing and it has some mapping issues, meaning that the side windows can't have the right stickers, and a few details aren't quite looking like the real thing, but i'm happy with the result nonetheless. This skin has been made possible by DG as he helped a lot with finding the rare stickers needed and endured my countless rants while making th
