Sunstar chose the wrong body style for their Safari Stratos models. Each year the cars ran in the event, they used the narrow body ‘Stradale’ style – those distinctive wide rear arches were not used. More puzzling is that Sunstar already has that body style in their range. They researched the markings, how did they miss the changes to the body?
