I really like this front end design. The mirrored Miatini Racing logo adds some substantial width to the car.

The additional Miatini logo on the hood might be a tad too much.

More emphasis on the logos, as a reference to old Lancia rallye cars.

Again, the Miatini logo adds width. A circumferential blue stripe connects both sides of the car.

Again, wider stripes. IMHO most stripers choose widths that are too conservative.

Since I transferred the airbag system from the white Miatini into Rosso, I had to change the sttering column. That subsequently meant I had to swap ALL locks between the two cars, including the trunk lock :-/

I also resealed the engine that was leaking quite heavily. Upon inspection I discovered that not only the thin 0W-40 oil was at fault but also that the front main crank seal was popping out. Code brown in full effect!

The white Miatini came with all sorts of unnecessary crap such as power steering (yikes!), air con (yuk!) and the likes. Removing all those additional wires, hoses etc. was a first for me.

I simply rolled it over to the red chassis, lowered the body and placed it onto the drivetrain.
