    I'm not sure if they are the same or not, but I have the color chip samples for the Countach / Jalpa. Here is what they show for the 2 grays:

    Lighter Grey - 2.463.729 (Argento Luna Metallizzato)
    Darker Grey - 2.463.012 (Canna Di Fucile Metallizzato)

    Both are PPG

    Mine is huger in size but has only one silver it's Argento Luna, but mine has also Verde Countach of #1120001 ...
    Canna di Fucile is metallic black.

    PPG was normal, I have a pint sample for Espada/Urraco must be 1971 or so and is also PPG (italia)

    Hello. I have old lp400. It remained being kept.
    Are there any attention to move it after an interval of 30 years?

    I do not know what the heck you are trying to say but if you own an lp400 that has sat for 30 years you must call a respectable Lamborghini shop, not dealer, and have them tow it to their shop. It will need alot of service. It will be expensive.
    Search this thread about what needs to be done, it has been discussed many times.

    The cars Diablo 4 Ever posted are not Countachs.

    The Rain-X Countach is a genuine Annivesario fully stripped and converted to a race car with tuned engine, reworked suspension, lightweight panels, and plastic windows etc.

    Not yet, thanks for sharing.
    Reminds me of our trip when we came back from italy and incidently got onto the very old St.Gotthard road called tremola, that was in the night and all of a sudden on a small bridge the pavés had been removed. My wife had to leave the car and check if there was enough clearance to pass the ramp at the other end.
    Then we arrived at the military camp "Motto Bartola", imagine the guard there, he must have heard us already for a quarter of an hour and suddenly a dark UFO passes by :)

    Such stories you can tell your grandchilds, unforgettable!
