We are very sorry! You will no longer have any choice but to separate the rear hood of your Hasegawa Lancia 037 model. If you don't, you will be wasting the infinity of detail of the entire 3D printed engine, chassis, gearbox, transmission and rear suspension assembly that GPmodeling has developed to perfectly fit the Lancia 037. A marvel that even we are thinking of mounting separately from the model!

Yes, we know, the model itself already has the engine. Why change it? If you think this, it is because you have not yet analyzed the photos of the super detailed engine that GPmodeling has developed and that fits perfectly in the Esci, Humbrol, Italeri and Revell kits. Its finish is spectacular, it does not lack the smallest detail, and even the distribution allows various mounting configurations. It also includes a new non-blinded front grille, so that the radiator can be seen through it. Now there is no excuse, the front hood has to stay open!

Astonishing! We are speechless when we have received the super detailed Lancia Delta 16v engine to use in the Hasegawa models. Infinite details, with a careful area of the engine compartment that fits perfectly into the chassis of the model. And a non very common but important detail, the interior structure of the front hood so that nothing is missing. Better, since there will be no one who would think of leaving it closed...

Awesome! We are speechless when we have received the super detailed engine of the Lancia Delta Evo to use in the Hasegawa models. Infinite details, with a careful area of the engine compartment that fits perfectly into the chassis of the model. And a non very common but important detail, the interior structure of the front hood, slightly different from that of the 16 valves, so that nothing is missing. Better, since there will be no one who would think of leaving it closed...
