Lancia Beta Montecarlo Group 5 kit card 1/32

1/32 Lancia Beta Montecarlo Turbo Group 5
 

Created for the upcoming 24 Hours of Le Mans, this kit continues my tradition of making something special for Le Mans each year.

This model is a tribute and homage to the Lancia Beta Montecarlo Turbo Group 5 — one of the great silhouette racers of the late 1970s and early 1980s. The real car carried Lancia into a successful endurance-racing era, winning major world championship honours and taking class success at Le Mans.
 

The Beta Montecarlo name also became part of a wider Lancia legend, with the Montecarlo platform later forming the basis for the iconic Lancia Rally 037 and 037 Stradale.
 

This 1/32 kit features spinning wheels, good exterior detail, and near-correct proportions, adjusted where necessary due to 3D printing limitations. Assembly is designed to be simple, with no glue required.
 

A small model dedicated to a great car, a bold racing era, and the spirit of Le Mans.
