131 Rally Car

Post by Kovacevic »

I'm new to the forum and I thought I'd share some photos of my 131 gravel rally car. I compete in all events from club rallies and State Championships, to the Australian Rally Championship. This is an 8V 2 litre with a standard gearbox, but a Volvo (Dana) rear end with a torson LSD and 4:56 gears running 15" wheels. I've had a variety of brakes on the front, but I currently have WRX discs and Nissan R33 calipers - otherwise it's all Fiat right down to the power windows!
I love the car, and it is such a stable platform (or should I say forgiving!) and instils confidence. I'm building a 131 Abarth replica at the moment to compete in the Classic category of the Australian Rally Championship and hopefully knock off some of these BDA Escorts - plenty of them and no Fiats. I'll try and post some progressive build photos as it slowly moves forward. There's so many great cars on the forum I'm a little embarrassed, as we never got Abarths or 131r's out here, actually we never got anything exotic really in the way of european vehicles, but I hope someone enjoys the photos.
thank you,
Alex

Alex - you need the permission of the photographer named on the pictures.

To post them I must have sight of his permission in advance.

If you do not have it you must delete those particular photos. This is stated in Protocols,

Sorry Guy,
These are the thumbnail proofs I was sent, and have since purchased the photos and the right to reproduce them - I'm a bit of a techno moron and don't know how to download the others. I'll organise alternate photos until I can download and upload the purchased prints.
My apologies,
Alex

A couple of compliant photos for the rally enthusiasts.

Note the road sign in the background - I hit a tree head-on about 5 minutes later (prophetic)
