Countach 5000s Vancouver BC $38,000 CDN

Car sold last week for a good price to a local Vancouver enthusiast.  I will have to see if I can get the seller to give me the new owner's name and get him on here to update what he is doing with it.

Cheers

I was over in Vancouver on the weekend talking to a fellow replica enthusiast(Gary) I met over on MM a couple years ago that has a 5000s. We worked together to get a couple Countach screens off Alan Schrager before he sold his business off to Don Barry.

Gary has decided to sell his Countach off as he has had a change in priorities. I went over and had a close look at everything on the car. He has installed an LS4 and auto trans traverse in the car. The LS4 is a low mileage engine and it purrs.

Car details:

• Armstrong body and frame
• Built by another builder and not Armstrong himself
• I guess the builder bought a few bodies and frames from Armstrong and built them back in the day
• 17" rims (I think they are Diablo rims but don't quote me)
• New rubber on two and good rubber on the other two
• LS4 and auto trans installed by a rod shop in Vancouver at great expense
• Curved windscreen
• Screen goes right to the sides as per oem with no fiberglass a-pillars as some replicas end up with
• Curved, glass side windows and quarter windows
• Lower side window rolls down the 2" as per oem
• rad is in the front not under the side vents as oem
• Electronic poppers for all doors and lids
• I would change them back to mechanical if it was me buying the car but personal preference
• Doors are very solid and close well with no wobbling like so many replicas
• Interior is white and complete but older
• Could use an interior refresh
• Paint is good all round but there are a few areas where nicks and paint cracks are showing
• The paint was put on in early '90's so some wear and tear expected
• Front windshield is cracked but he has the replacement
• Battery and engine electronics are in the rear trunk
• Engine has a low throaty V8 growl

He is looking to let it go for $38k CDN
He has way more into it than that as per all replicas.....
He is looking for a quick sale so will entertain offers but no low balls will be considered
I can help with getting more pics and more review of the car if needed
I also vouch for Gary as he is a great guy and wouldn't screw anyone around on a deal

I also have more pictures than what is on the Craigslist ad so email me and I can send along.
Thanks
Don
