Home-Made Lamborghini in Basement

Ten years to build from the ground up. Kind of reminds me of the fellow who spent 15 years building a 1:3 scale Ferrari 312P.

Not a Cobra, but pretty amazing none the less!

There is another one among us doing something similar... A BMW850 donor car for V12 power. Care to identify yourself, sir???

Someone had to rip out the basement wall?

Did I miss something again?

Dang that guy did a nice job.

Nice build, the attention to detail is outstanding!

Very impressive. Wonder if he will start doing kits. This is how I imagine the first Cobra Replicas got started.

I can't imagine how much cheaper it would have been for this guy to just buy a used Countach. They ain't that expensive (about $100K or so), and I would think that this guy spent way more than that on this car. I guess some guys just enjoy the journey rather than the destination. You have to admire a guy with this kind of talent......I sure do!
