My Lamborghini Countach project. Always wanting to own a Countach replica kit-car I started looking and comparing kits. Being located in Australia I was in some way very limited with the choices, at that time there wasn't any Kits available locally worth buying. Let me just say that there where a few back yard operates. One of these companies was taking orders from the "MOTOR SHOW" all around Australia. These Kits where around the AU$11,000($6,000USD)for the body only. The owner claimed that car could be road registered but it wasn't, a lot of people bought these kits and sure enough they started appearing for sale as unfinished projects without any paperwork for a fraction of the original cost. Well I decided not to become another statistic in this case. I looked around some more and found some plans to build a Lamborghini Countach from scratch. That's right you read it right build the complete car from scratch including the body and chassis. The good thing about theses plans is that you have an option to build the car with a space frame chassis V6 or a V8 configuration, or a cheaper version on a VW type 3 chassis. You can download these plans from kitcarplans.com click here Since
I was trying not to spend to much money I decided to build the kit based
around the VW type 3 chassis. Here
are some questions that you Did
