Which of these two cars is the Original? The first picture shows a gravel version whilst the second is definately a tarmac car.  :o

This car was the very last "works" car that was registered. It was a Multi purpose version. Build for gravel but easy adjustable for tarmac. That's why it originally had the wide arches. This same car was driven by Markku Alen in the 1981 Portugal rally. Markku overlooked a big rock which took of the complete right wheel and shock absorber.
Markku drove it backwards to the finish and won the rally in the end. Now, isn't that a world champion or not? :D :D

It came to OZ and was campaigned by Greg Carr. It seems to prefer damage on the right front.

Its hard explain the feeling when your sitting in a abarth that has not been
rolled in years and probably has rally dust from its final session.
