The highly detailed body is made of durable ABS plastic and it sits on top of Tamiya’s TA-02 S chassis. Side mirrors and windshield wipers are made using separate parts. The Lancia body is specifically mounted on a TA-02 variant.
The Lancia 037 is in build queue right now but having built a few Tamiya models in the past, I can tell you that I've never had a bad experience with them.
