You could always scratch build a Countach - like this guy in the States.
Linky
It only took him 17 years and he had to excavate into his basement to get the completed car out
It is a real work of art with full aluminium bodywork.
Rough?, no kidding!!!!
Man alive thats nasty.
Can't help with your questions though matey, probably on a beetle chassis?
cheers.
It might be a nice project for someone with an engine and no car to put it in but £2k?
just to add its not for me my boss has a hankering for a countach and wants a bmw 5l v12 in it
That looks beetle chassis based to me and a crapper. The bloke cant spell either.

Ok...the one in the basement is very nice, very accurate. Yet the one in the ad is pretty awful.
Why? Well, the Countach panels are nearly flat.....but they ARE curved.... very slightly, very subtley, and that IMO makes the biggest
difference....assuming both were finished.
the kit looks like a first triangle g kit. but its been messed with alot by the looks of it.
you can get some good kits from extreme in hull.
but thats not one of them.

The original beetle based "kit" was called a Panache
Very few built thank god!
This is coming from a man (me) who built a Mirage Countach and took 5 years getting the body right!
This one looks like the body and panel fit is by Hygena
.............and you can buy a Stylus for that money

thanks everyone, i know its a bit of a sh*tter but they dont come along that often and im quite well looked after at work so im keeping my eye
out for his dream car
i just got a U2U with a possible lead on a car that could fit the bill(thanks) but anyone else who stumbles across a part built/ crashed countach
please u2u me.
oh and the rear arches arnt too bad if the look at the very early countach they have a similiar odd look to them
No wonder the inertia is missing, there's no engine
