Uncovering the Thrilling Force Behind this LANCIA 037 tribute: GM XE Red Top

- Keith's Lancia 037 tribute - I was pretty blown away by Keith's 037 when I first came across it at the RALLY RETRO FESTIVAL back in February 2023. And the feeling was just the same when visiting him and the car at his Gippsland home just recently. The difference being, the car, the world's only steel bodied tribute to the legendary Lancia 037 or Lancia Rally to give it its official name, is now road legal and we were able to take this one of one tribute out for a run.
Looking back at the footage really doesn't do that experience justice. The feeling you get when low down, buzzing through the trees in a stripped out sports car is simply sensational. I really don't understand the need for cars that fling your head back in the seat when you can have fun like this.
Classic, Vintage, Veteran and RADwood car restorations and repairs AND BUILDS from the vantage point of the mechanics, auto body mechanics and paint technicians AND BACKYARD BUILDERS that work to keep our motoring heritage on the road.
Twice weekly visits to classic auto garages featuring cars from 1886 to 1999 & including BUILDS, car restoration, rebuilds, repairs and restomods to anything from Aussie V8s, American muscle cars, Euro exotics, JDM, your coveted everyday runabout and more. If it's built before the turn of the century, there's every chance I'll film it.
I simply love old cars and visiting garages to chat to the people working on them. Added to that, I devour car content on youtube so I thought I'd join in and make some myself.
Hopefully you might like to come along for the journey as well.

Excellent build. It’s so inspiring to see homebuilt cars that come out so well.
Couldn't agree more!
Blimey, me all time dream car: Lancia 037 ! Great stuff indeed !
Stunner isn’t it?
@@davesclassicgaragetours yup, amazing and on top of it, he is a top chap ! Merry Christmas and all that !
This is truly great. Some of us dream about it and definitely would watch the process of building new designs.
Glad you like it. More backyard builds to come though unfortunately I haven’t got the budget or time to be around for one from start to finish.
You've really enjoyed building it, enjoying driving and showing it , that's worth it's weight on gold ! Well done it looks and sounds fantastic !
Plenty of great driving ahead
Nice reference to Walter Röhrl. The 037 was his favourite rally car.
It certainly was
What a fantastic tribute build! Well done Keith! .. and thanks @davesclassicgaragetours for sharing it with us all! 🙂 👍 👍
Not a problem.
Thanks for watching and please share away
Thanks@@davesclassicgaragetours! ... and I already have!!!! Merry Christmas! 🙂
037 Rallye is so gorgeous… WELL DONE MAN🇮🇹
He did a great job didn’t he
Keith and I go back decades. He used to have a note book called his "Mad Ideas Book", back in the 1980's, and I recall this being in there. There were so many other crazy ideas he had. This one has come to fruition. Well done Keith.
I wonder what’s next
Nice to see another guy following his Lancia Montecarlo/Scorpion passion! Keeps me inspired to keep going with mine
Don’t ever give up on your passion mate
Interesting conversation and great build....
Thanks Michael
Superb! What an amazing story, and a fantastic car. Not least that bamboo fuel gauge.
Ingenuity at its finest M. Take note 😉
What a car amazing piece of kit
Sure is
Well done , what a car and a great video . The world needs more people with skills like that and the determination to see it through , not robots . How about a Stratos !
Keith’s got a V12 sitting in a rusty S3 Jag that he has designs on.

I'm 57 now and right on track to fill this guys awesome shoes when he chills one day.. But I'm thinking he kicks arse til he is 107 yrs old. Or more.
Yeah I reckon he’s still got a good few in him. Years and builds.
Great episode Dave, I really enjoyed that. Well done to Keith, what an impressive car! Hope I can make it to Retro Rally next year to check it out.
Thanks Matthew. You really have to get down to the festival. It’s going to be a blinder
Hydraulic handbrakes were commonplace in the 70’s. All group b cars had them.
Isn't that British . I a Lotus worse electrical system ...shorts ..frayed wires...finally caught fire . My insurance company paid me extra not to buy another one .😮
