Group B was utterly crazy. It always felt like a disaster waiting to happen and, of course, it eventually and tragically did. The cars that the class allowed were extraordinary in their day and, like the 037, are still awe inspiring. I was lucky enough to get to have a very short ride in ac 6R4 in the late eighties. Very, very scary. Mostly sideways and deafeningly loud.

My bugeye was in British racing green. It had oversized racing pistons, crankshaft, rods and pistons balanced, double row timing chain, ported and polished head with the camshaft bore linebored and fitted with bearings. At the time I could not get a 40DCOE side draught Weber and so settled for a 45 mm Weber DCOE that was jetted and choked to the minimum size available. It was a beautiful little car and only sold to finance my first home purchase. Your car brings back memories from almost fifty years ago.

Love Lancia. When you first show the 037, just to the left, peeking out from behind the garage, looks to be the back end of a Fiat 128. I had one years ago and loved it. If you ever have the interest or the time, looking into the 128 might be very entertaining. Mine was the plain Jane 1300 two door sedan...for me the best configuration. In Europe they had the Rally version which was the hotter set up. My late night runs through the canyons of the Hollywood Hills in my 128 are some of my fondest automotive memories.
