Title: new countach build on Youtube
Post by: opnwide on February 13, 2025, 07:11:15 PM
I just bought this hurricane damaged Prova countach, and will be rebuilding it on Youtube.   I can't believe I finally have my dream car in the garage.   I know you should never meet your heroes, but It should be a lot of fun.
Here is the Youtube link

You've definitely got your work cut out for you with that.

yeah. Its a bit rough but I am hoping the price I paid is worth it.   I could part it out and double my money pretty quickly.  I am picking up a load of 1.5 square steel tube tomorrow.

The 2nd video is already out.

The body is off, and I started chopping on the frame already.  The floor was cut out, and I've replaced two main tubes.  Now that the back of the cockpit is solid, I am about to cut off the back of the frame and totally rework that!
The second video is already out.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZDkl3ozvDA (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZDkl3ozvDA)

Here is a teaser of the third video which will be released later this week.

So much for the photos.   I can't seem to upload photos without getting flagged for security violations. The photos are resized to 600x600.   I don't get it.
