Sbarro Countach

First time I hear of it - seems very 'timid' for a Sbarro job

 

What/Who is Sbarro, I clicked on this thinking it was another "Pizza Delivery car" because of Sbarro Pizza.

 

More about the Sbarro Countachs... http://www.lambocars.com/archive/countach/sbarro.htm

ndnboi, Google "Franco Sbarro", you'll find sites with pics of some of his wild concept cars.

 

This is not Sbarro, it's another body kit.
Consider this page: http://www.countach.ch/tuning.html

These air intake are from Sbarro but not the sills

I mailed Sbarro onces, but he didn't want to remember even this car:

I think I bought my cousin that poster for his 12th birthday...

 

Koenig did a TT Countach?

 

They actually did never one, Max Bobnar had a LP400s and LP5000s with Biturbo, then there was also a 25th with quad-Turbo but this car burnt down because the house it was stored in burnt to the ground.

 

The poster was from Verkerke and actually this car was from Switzerland, it is still, it's either #1121114 or more likely #1121198 (supercharged).
I have to search this poster since I want to put it into my garage as well.

 

tks for sharing
was the air intake of this QV effective ram air to the carbs? or only a "different" engine cover?

do you have other pics of this car, Raymond?

 

That black QV had a terrible accident and was rebuilt, today it's red and still in Switzerland, it's #HLA12047.
I don't know about the ram air effect, I mailed Sbarro about this car and he (personally) wrote back he never modded a countach...

Man, people should just leave these cars alone....all these add-ons look like junk.
Of course that's just my opinion and I guess different opinions help make the world go
around but I just had to say it... As for the poster, I saw it on Ebay about a month
ago...hopefully another will come up and you'll catch it.

 

Nice find!

 

The engine bay looks horrible and the scope in the engine hood is without function, fake tuning at it's best...

I prefer installing my ignition boxes which bring 10bhp more and better drivability!

As far as I can read I posted even the VIN of this car...

 

That engine looks like it could use some TLC.

The hood scoop looks goofy. If it was functional I'd give him a pass but as a non-functioning decoration WHY?

 

To increase drag ... and make it impossible to look back

 

Good point!

It's not like there's excess visibility out that little window.

 

I love the pine tree air freshner

 

Hi lambofreak, I dug through my collection of white countachs and have found 34 pictures of that car or others with the same panels,too many to post here, drop me a email address in a pm and i can send over as a zip file pitures total about 16mb, but here is some to get you excited.
