Set of decals to reproduce the version of the Lancia Stratos with which Alen and Kivimaki participated in the RAC Rally in 1979. Despite being an official Fiat driver and regularly racing a 131 Abart, Alen was in love with the Lancia Stratos, and took advantage of any occasion where his official commitments with Fiat allowed him to race with the Lancia. On this occasion, the only one with the Stratos in 1979, he managed to reach the final fifth position. The decals are designed to be used in combination with the Hasegawa kit.

The 1986 edition was not an easy rally, with a lot of snow in certain areas.

The Studio27 decals allow us to decorate our Hasegawa kit with this version of the Monte Carlo Rally.
