    Rear fogs.

    I have two for mine just haven't had time to put them on.

    I'm putting them on mine to fill in the holes from the back bumper I took off a few months ago.

    A little less than the ask, but I'll defer to the new owner to elaborate at some point in the very near future.

    Looks like a very nice car. Silver is a nice color on the Countach (Greg should know!). By the way, are the front turn signal/driving lights in backwards or upside down? That should be a quick fix.

    You learn something every day! Thanks Joe!

    By the way, here is another question for you. In the photos of the books. There are a couple of references hand written as "Countach M2". What does the M2 stand for?

    I think I might have answered my own question. It just looks like an "M". However, I think what it really is, are (2) number "1"? So, its actually Countach 112...

    That is typical of how some European countries write a "1", especially Italy and Germany, and can look like an upward pointing arrow. In the UK, it would usually be a straight line or would have a small top left line as in this font.

    I unfortunately wasn't able to attend, but did a Bianco on Bianco Countach just win Best in Show at La Belle Macchine d'Europa in the Pocono's?

    I don't think so. My Blu Tahiti downdraft won Best in Class (Countach class). Gary's beautiful Espada won Best of Marque for Lamborghini (and deservedly so -- a beautiful car!). I did not stay to find out what won Best in Show, though.

    Thank you very much for sharing this one!!
    Never see too much this kind of quality onboard clips of Countach.
    I just love the gearbox, Oh Man I love that open gate gear box. I just can imagine which kind of feelings it gives when changing the gear.... Love it. :)

    It there is more clips, please it would be superb to see more.!
