Post by: Tallon on February 05, 2013, 01:30:43 PM: You always have to source parts from different places for these cars. You pretty much have to search the forums or if you don't find the part, ask. Not many countach builders though. Bottlefed seems to have been gone awhile ::scratch
Would like to see pics!

Sorry been busy at work
I've been online and many forums
No one seems to have the time to reply to any email
I have contact cliffs and he never replied
I have created a photobucket account
It's under myfirstlambo
Those pictures are when I first bought the car
Not much done except for cleaning
Got the two front tires 225/50/15 on
Looking for rears 345/35/ZR15. Yup old school monsters
Only found a set of Pirellis but at 800.00 a pop
Saving up. Maybe I come down to 325/50/15 only 202.00 on eBay
Just not sure if they fit the rim..
Will post more pictures soon.
Thanks for looking and any help

The stretch version is the way to Go just looks meaner
I got a good deal on it just hope it doesn't burn my pocket
Again thank you for comments

Post by: eddie on February 18, 2013, 06:49:02 AM: Hi there, nice car, but please tell me the car was not stretched yet right? it looks like Mac's body, back in days was very popular.I'm not critizing the car just wonder. I had one too ,sold it and now I'm in to Diablo tube chassis.

Post by: Linlor on March 11, 2013, 11:57:43 PM: I have dealt with Cliff for my Countach interior parts. He has been really busy with chassis builds so took a while to get me my parts but I got them a few weeks ago. They are excellent quality. I got a full interior and had additional inner door panels made as well as my body did not not come with them.

He does incredible work.

The fellow that bought Euroexotics is in Boise Idaho and has contact info on his Web site. I have emailed the contact but have not received any answer back.

These cars end up getting put together with lots of different sources.

You can email me at don_ostergard at shaw dot ca with parts or info you need and I will see what we can find for you. We are getting a bit of a network of Countach builders going that can help find parts.

Good luck with the project and keep sending updates.

Cheers
Don
