The Fiat 131 Abarth earned legendary status in rally competition with notable results through the late 1970s and early 1980s. This Italeri 1/24 model represents the car that contributed to several World Rally Championship manufacturers wins, a drivers crown and an FIA accolade.
Originating from the two door Fiat sedan, Abarth made key changes including lighter bodywork, larger wheels and improved air intake solutions to boost cooling. The 4 cylinder longitudinal engine featured a light alloy head and four valves per cylinder, demonstrating a progressive design for its time.
This Italeri kit appeals to modellers who want a historically faithful project. It provides authentic styling and assembly detail that reward careful painting and finishing for a strong display result.
