Beta 1970 Pinault 8 Mitostroj 1.30

Pinault 8 aka "Mitostroj"

NOTE: This car was inspired by Renault 8 "Litostroj", license produced in Slovenia (part of Yugoslavia during Cold War) with original tooling and blueprints. I've chosen to call it "Mitostroj" because of its pun ("Mitostroj" can be mythical machine or even corruption machine, two-blade joke which I let to the interpretators)

Known issues: Nothing special, only weird glow on the taillights, which is probably the fixture issue.

The Story:
Pinault P8 was small family sedan produced in France (1964-1972) and various other countries all around the world (Yugoslavia, Romania, Spain, Australia, Portugal, Morocco, Mexico etc...) until the mid 1970s. Basically, it was small family car heavily influenced by the Sinca 1100, only with slightly higher wheelbase.and couple of external differences. As for Sinca, it is rear-engined, rear-drive car powered by 1.1 L inliner-4 with 4-speed or 5-speed manual transmission. Because of its balanced power-to-weight ratio(s), the rally trim was created in mid 1960s, painted in typical Pinault Blue / white stripes paint job. The award-winning rally version had its reputation in 60s and early 70s as an unavoidable car in tournaments of that eras. The production in France discontinued in the 1972, when the focus was aimed at more modern designs.
