Deal! Yes I do , you are welcome anytime. Sorry I have not replied sooner to your emails, a Diablo went out of here yesterday to Houston and I was rushing on that all week. As planned, I did get down to the fiberglass shop this last Monday and sorted out the molds for your Murcie parts. They are in progress. Great trip to San Antonio, stopped to visit wit Dale on the way, but I got one Countach body instead of two, one transaxle instead of two, and two new engines without any flywheels.

Ravenarts and Casper, the car being built for SEMA is going to sell for at least $80,000. The drivetrain and most of the other pieces are in place including a new and different set of custom wheels. There is still time to personalize the car and effect the final build cost. The Haters are about to say that there is not a Countach replica in the world worth that, I respect a customers privacy and do not put their business on the interned, but five cars ago that Countach was $120,000. I will bet anyone a Margarita that this car will not come home from SEMA and I will get my asking price.

The timing is just right.  What's the approximate price range?

Ravenarts, Peterbuilt is telling me that it will be the end of this year before we have all of the body tooling to build the Chupacabra if you are interested in that. In the meantime, I have a Countach going together for SEMA. This is the first build I have ever done that has not been spoken for and contracted. If you are interested in this one, there is still time to pick your colors and trims.

If you are looking for something Countach inspired, the Chupacabra is in development.

Charley Strickland (76MX on this site) is builder. Pictures and details on FB.

Thanks for the add folks.  I'm a long time car fanatic and over the years I've collected the usual Porsches, Vettes, NSX....even a DeLorean but I've been infatuated with Lamborghinis forever.  I bought a Countach kit many years ago that turned out to be far beyond my mechanical abilities.
Fast forward 25 years or so and I'm retiring in December and ready to buy but this time I'm getting turnkey.  Countach, Diablo, etc.  I'm open to pretty much anything as long as it's turnkey or very close to finished. Any advice, opinions, scam alerts, etc. is greatly appreciated.
