    Always seems like the last 10% of a project takes 25% of the time! So probably a very good move to skip this year. Thanks for not forgetting my electro valve part question- looking forward to the shops info in time.

    Speaking of those little electrovalves. Lamborghini calls them "Solenoids". Looks like they are still available (albeit like most rare Countach parts, they cost an arm & a leg).

    Jason at LamboStuff appears to have 2 in stock:

    Without doubt, having completed the project to high standard, there is no need to do anything any less. That said, I don't think we have that long to go, just a few important things.

    Hi Joe, quick question. The cars suffer from heat cracks behind the scoops. Was any additional bracing applied to counter this?

    Cheers

    It's great to hear this coming from you.

    I know the FChat system degrades images a bit so its hard to see the quality unless you are with the car.

    However my wife uploaded these images https://margaretwoldsackey.shootproof.com/gallery/3105537/home which should give you a better sense of the detail if you double-click and fully open up the images.

    Of course when it's finished the car will be subjected to some proper professional photoshoots so all the details can be seen.

    Hope you guys are well.
