These are from our fantastic open-MSO, 579 mile car which was delivered new to Bill Pennington of Circus Circus in Reno, Nevada.
Hey Joe, Can you comment on the bubble that forms under the paint in the middle of the rear wing? I have seen it on my fathers car and at least 2 others.
I'm not really the best person to ask about this as I've never diagnosed and effected repair of a Countach wing
The wing problems are discussed in this thread. https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/countach-rear-wing-corrosion.368554/ Look specifically at post 16 (with another link) & you'll get an idea why moisture gets trapped inside, causing bubbles & corrosion.
Thank you! We've always wondered why it did that. Is it best to maintain the original state of it or repair it?

Years ago I posted a few articles about the stylish Mr K's 9-car garage in his basement which is fitted with a lift so he can elevate his beloved 25th Anniversario into the house, and send it back to the basement garage again. Anyway, my source tells me that this is a special-order car in Canna Di Fucile Metallizzato (PPG 2463012) with Arancio interior, a one-off livery. * Scroll up & down Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

This looks like a newly delivered batch of painted body shells. Were they all now painted by an external contractor?
So turns out me and carbon have sequential Vin numbers - both rossi perlato! Pretty cool! Sent from my BBF100-2 using Tapatalk

There's one for sale if you want to add to your stable. They say it's Rosso Seviglia/Crème, but looks very white to me. http://www.parkplaceltd.com/used-cars/detail/1989-Lamborghini-Countach-25th-Anniversary-Edition/995/ZA9CA05A7KLA12586
Agreed. That’s white for certain. Also, they’re asking crazy money, particularly given the car has over 30,000 miles on it.
I've seen one for even more money, only 7000 miles - but, it's an 87 QV that's been "upgraded" with all the Anniversary model bumpers, side skirts and vents. Blew me away.
Murdered out - black on black with blacked out light covers. https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/detail/736979826/overview/ The website doesn't seem good at taking down old ads (or the users aren't) - there's another car on there I'm pretty sure was sold years ago but still listed. So not sure if it's still available.
Very peculiar car. Highly modified. It’s a amalgamation of a QV and a Anniversary car. Who would do such a thing? What an insane creation.
My thoughts exactly - why take a relatively rare car and make it into one of the most prolific sellers in the range? Surely would have been more cost effective to just buy a 25th Anniversary model to begin with.
