    I am grateful to be following along with this project; since I was a kid I've always found cars in a state of disassembly far more interesting than the finished item, and when the disassembled car is a Countach? Wow. It's also good to see alternative ways of setting-up a shop; the amount of daylight in Dani's facility is superb and must make it not just easier for the craftsmen to deliver good results (natural light being the best), but must also be a happier work environment (vitamin D production!). Here in the northeast of the USA, this kind of daylight in a shop would be unusual. Thank you very much for sharing this access. John in CT/USA

    John, thank you for the kind words. I was locating the paint shop building on the south of my property to achieve the best daylight condition. The building is high enough to add in future a second floor. Daylight is a big advantage for any precision job. The downside is that a lot of glass is quite expensive and is increasing the costs for cooling and heating. But for a quality job the advantages definitively prevail.

    I remember seeing the ad for this car and thinking it would need a ton of help for a new lease on life.. you certainly are giving it that!

    Thank you all for the friendly comments!

    The works on the car continue but during the summertime I spend the weekends far away from my pc ;-)

    The car was moved from the paint shop to the assembly area:
