    People use the expression Barn Find loosely because it makes for a good story.

    Meanwhile, do we know which LP400 this is?

    I think not 1180 since I know this car, since 2001 in Belgium. Do you know where this one was registred?
    1180 was originally rosso/bianco.

    A lot of work for a car that really needs to be disassembled and fully restored, I do like the studio images towards the end though.

    Agreed.

    I also cringed when the guy sat on the front fender when the wheel was being removed.

    Bunch of morons. Surprised Temerian would be ok with that
    Aluminum body and an ass on the windshield. Would never bring a car there.
    So disrespectful.

    What would you do if there was a video clip of them sitting on your car? You be f***ing pissed

    Several red flags here, carelessness

    These days being cool is preferable to being respectful.

    Youtube tactics in action. Throw around words like "barn find" for buzz, create "content" (like washing a car that will be taken apart afterwards completely anyhow) and make a few dollars from views and advertising... I'll take a youtube movie from an owner doing a cold start any day of the week over these kinds :)

    Just embarrassing. Why would the owner think that's ok? Why would I trust any of my cars there (the place is a mile away from work)?

    With all these restorations going on. Are there new, old stock or are people making fenders for the cars?

    Why have the factory replaced the original opaque lenses on their Anniversary car? Surely this is not correct, at least from a purist historical point of view, one would think the factory of all places would get this kind of thing correct.

    Both, you can get some fenders online https://www.ebay.com/itm/281027046049? & https://www.ebay.com/itm/281027046152?

    There's nobody at the factory that really knows what is correct for the Countach period

    Yes, though I wonder why they were changed at all? Maybe they were damaged or somebody thought they were incorrect and needed 'correcting' ?

    Probably the latter as the car has very low miles.
