This book illustrates the genesis and the development of 1983 World Rally Champion car: the last two-wheel drive model in the history to win the title.

The technical description of the engineer Sergio Limone and the unpublished photographs of the time revive a fundamental chapter of sports motoring and a decade of great revolution.

Lancia 037 - The Development & Rally History of a World Champion
In the late 1970s, constant rule changes made competing in the World Rally Championship difficult. This book explains how Lancia responded with the 037 rally car and explores the regulations that teams had to follow to remain competitive.
Developed rapidly to challenge the Audi Quattro, the Lancia 037 succeeded thanks to careful design choices. With the close involvement of designer and chief engineer Ing. Sergio Limone, the book offers detailed insight into the secret development process. It describes how Limone determined the car's layout within the limits of the rules, and how testing took place in secrecy at Fiat's facilities around Turin.
The story is supported by Limone's own photographs from restricted areas, giving a rare behind-the-scenes view. The book then shifts to the Lancia 037's rally career, following its role in winning the 1983 World Rally Championship for Makes and many other events. Input from team members and rare action photos enrich the account.
Additional sections include tests of key cars and records of events and chassis used. This is a detailed and well-illustrated history of one of rallying's most iconic vehicles.

Lancia Rally - L'era d'oro / The Golden Age - Appia, Flaminia, Flavia, Fulvia, Beta Stratos
Following the book Lancia Rally Group B, Sergio Remondino has returned to the rallying world with a book examining the golden age of Lancia in the World Rally Championship. We start in the early Sixties, when a numerous group of enthusiasts began using Lancia cars - Appia, Flavias and even Flaminias - for the road races of the time, the forerunners of the rallies that were to come.
The creation of HF at the behest of Cesare Fiorio, together with the advent of the Fulvia, created an authentic watershed and the definitive consecration of the Lancia marque on a global level. Between 1962 and 1982, Lancias conquered one Constructors' title and four European Championships, three Constructors' World Championships and two FIA Drivers' cups, writing indelible chapters in the history of the sport, thanks to drivers and cars of absolute excellence, all of which relive in this invaluable book.

Lancia Rally - L'era d'oro / The Golden Age - Appia, Flaminia, Flavia, Fulvia, Beta Stratos
The Group B cars marked one of the most thrilling yet most tragic periods in the history of world rallying and beyond. The 037, the S4, the EVC and the ECV2, "ephemeral player" of a still-born Group S, were the unforgettable protagonists of the 1982-1986 seasons that for the Lancia marque were constellated by a series of World, European and Italian titles, but also by terrible accidents that cost the lives of firstly Attilio Bettega and then Henri Toivonen and Sergio Cresto.
Sergio Remondino, a historic journalist and great expert in the multifaceted field of rallying, traces that unforgettable era, year by year, through a text rich in anecdotes and thanks to the contribution of the engineer Sergio Limone, one of the artificers of the Group B cars. This invaluable book is completed by the evocative images of Reinhard Klein, one of the most successful rallying photographers.
