Allan-Herbie Report post Posted July 9, 2013 Very nice guy! Said the Countach is his absolute favorite, owned for years and no plans to ever sell. They were just getting ready to start filmin and he still took the time to talk to me. Said when its cooler outside he drives them often.

Mako Report post Posted July 9, 2013 Love that guy on the show: "Drives real nice, everything is in order, great transmission, motor still has a lot of pull, frame's good." Rick: Cool, so what's it worth? "Five dollars." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan-Herbie Report post Posted July 9, 2013 Both of the countach 5000s? I couldn't get around to the back of the black one cause they were starting to film, but inmo it was also a 5000s with skirts added. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

qvpower Report post Posted July 9, 2013 if thats the case, both are 5000s with maybe perhaps one being fuel injection and other maybe carbed in the white? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's that mess on the engine lid? It does look like Ping's car. Not too many white Countach's out there with amber lenses. As far as the black one I believe it to be a carbed LP 5000 S from NY State. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

grngryoutmyway Report post Posted July 11, 2013 Sorry I meant stock muffler, it looks like they chromed that huge ANSA box. Though it does look like it could have sub'd as a bumper as well lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though it does look like it could have sub'd as a bumper as well lol It might be polished stainless as any heat will discolor chrome really quickly... If ss exhaust many brands look like that...

grngryoutmyway Report post Posted July 11, 2013 Gotcha, I didn't realize they made an aftermarket option that was still a big box muffler, I figured they were all tubi style.. for obvious reasons. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
