The column, stalks and ignition barrel are off a Fiat X1/9 or Lancia Monte Carlo; they're both the same. I have the build manual for your car if you want it. Cheers.
That is the Buick/Rover 3.9v8 out the range rover. It just takes a 10w 40 Semi synthetic ( Not Fully) synthetic!! Due to age I would recommend Valvoline with Zinc content. Steering switch gear could be a Fiat product??? Be not sure. Good luck with everything Sam 😁👍
The 3.9 was a mk1 range rover vogue engine can't mind if it was the carb or early efi so that would be where I would start looking. The stalks look like yugo 45,55,65 or fiat 127.
To stop the front splitter getting damaged in the future, buy or womble a skateboard, attach the trucks just underneath so it rolls over them instead of wacking the spoiler. I think the column is fiat X 1.9.
I think it is Fiat 127 Lamborghini used a lot of Fiat products as it was cheap and ready available out in ltaly, I assume the builders wanted to keep with the look.
Sam this is probably one of the nicest Countach replicas I have ever seen. You need to drive this up to Iain Tyrrell’s shop. He’s one of the leading authorities on the real Countach and could be interesting and fun to see this next to the real thing to compare and contrast.
The interior looks like a nice place to be 🤩 if that v8 works as well as the suspension looks you will have a huge smile on your face all the way to london 🙌
This brings back memories, all these Countach replicas usually look worse than they are underneath but yours looks pretty good, as you said just a clean up needed 👍🙏☝️
There is a thing with rover V8 oil changes. Sometimes the crappy external oil pump empties dry and won't re prime itself, but only if you change the filter while theres no oil in the sump. Protocol is fill the new filter with oil and change that, and only after that, drop the oil out the sump. If it does happen, and there's no oil pressure after the oil change,the factory fix was to unbolt the plate off the oil pump and stuff the gears full of vaseline. It'll want stodgy oil in it, 10/40 at least. it wont like 5/30. Cool looking car, looks like it wants a spanner check over all the rose joint bolts and lock nuts as per standard race car routine, And maybe a very light smear of plumbers silicone grease on the shiny rose joint balls to stop them creaking. P.s. thinking the indicator stalk looks a bit fiat 131.
This *looks* like an original Prova Countach which used the 3.5l engine out of a Range Rover, which is what it sounds like is fitted to this. If that's the one then this would have 5.7litres of oil of 20W50 oil in it. The stalks I'm not sure about though....
It’s a good build quality and keep this in mind unlike the Lamborghini that they built today the original one built in Italy so if you plan on driving it you are probably better off with the kit , because the real one doesn’t have power steering.
The backs perfect man. Lamborghini fixed something hideous with the anniversary edition in my opinion. A couple of years ago I saw a local traveller lad absolutely floor a Countach down the road near my house. The noise was insane man, I doubt I'll ever see that again lol. I live in NW England and my mates nickname is still after decades Penfold cos he looked like the sidekick from Danger mouse when we were at school.
The exhaust definitely needs to be sorted out so you can unleash the sound of that V8. Is there any way to alter the interior so that you are able to fit inside the car properly? Being a replica, it's not sacrilege, but I know the real thing is small inside. Plus, after the Gumball Rally, I'd love to see it in an official Lamborghini paint colour other than that Bentley metallic green currently. White/Red/Black/Yellow or more rare, the Dark Blue? The Anniversary Edition rear panel is far far better than the original. Don't change that.
@@Hardupgarage good replicas don't come around too often. The real Countach is way stupid money these days and getting more and more expensive each year. So owning the real thing is sort of out of the question, not to mention the insurance! I have loved the Lamborghini Countach since I was young seeing it in car mags. Then, I saw it on Miami Vice along with the Daytona Spyder and Tubbs' Testarossa. Three of THE 80's super cars in one show and all of them I always wanted, even if they were replicas. I wouldn't sell it. Make it yours.
Thats a cool car, Back in the late 80's to 1990 I was in school in Cardigan west wales, one of my friends at that times Dad with a surname of Higgins and a business partner had a unit on the Pentood industrial estate building lambo kit cars. I'm pretty sure they built quite a few for rich guys in Saudi to put on race tracks and they had chevy v8 motors in. They'd also buy plastic badges from the local. Lamborghini tractor dealer to put on them, so they had "genuine" badges on L.O.L.
Those rear light panels were not only used on the anniversary model, but also on the 5000QV. I reviewed a real 5000QV that had them. Other QV’s came with them as well.
I've seen the storks before, their old, of something (I think) like a Citroën, Renault Flat, thinking about it,Flat, an old boxy 124 or something I think, looks like an old Alfa Gulietta
Who cares it's cheap ,it's reliable, it looks awesome ,it's quite fast ....... LOVE IT ❤🤝
Same qualities I look for in women :)
Looks like fiat stalks to me
the rear definetly looks better with anniversary
I have to say your lamborghini replica looks awesome
I love to watch replica content on YT and your Lambo is clearly one of the best I've seen so far!
4 Poster Ramp,,,,, Get your grease tin and brush out, grease the posts and rollers, PS: loving the Lambo {none MR2}

Steering switch gear could be a Fiat product??? Be not sure.
Good luck with everything Sam 😁👍
Did I see a Sierra in the back? What is it doing being scrapped?
Older V8s need high zinc content oil. I use Valvoline VR1
Not bad at all except for that rover v8 ……that’s gotta got. A rep that clean deserves some kind of v12
What a choice for the Gumball... Having a Lampoorghini Countach or Danger Mouse and Penfold driving along with them🤣
The 3.9 was a mk1 range rover vogue engine can't mind if it was the carb or early efi so that would be where I would start looking. The stalks look like yugo 45,55,65 or fiat 127.
I immediately thought X1.9, as I remembered one countach maker using them, other fiats may also work.
Yay, thanks for the new video Sam.
the stocks for the whipers and flashing lights its seem to be from and old Fiat.
i recognize them from the fiat 147, 600, 127, etc.
I love replica Countaches 😀🤘🏽🔥

That’s a brilliant idea !!
Yes please go and visit Iain that would be so funny!
Countach copied it.
Who cares if it isn't accurate, it's custom, looks lovely jubbly 🔥😍🖤
If you haven't got any yet. Get some Valvolene VR1 20w50 in there. With a flat tappet cam always get oil with zinc in it 😎
The best replica you've had on your channel.. would be epic to see this on the road and people's reactions.
stalks look like early fiat ie: fiat 127 Ect, I could be wrong
The interior looks like a nice place to be 🤩 if that v8 works as well as the suspension looks you will have a huge smile on your face all the way to london 🙌
is that a sierra 3 door in the back?
Indicator stalk looks like 80's fiat, maybe X19
That lift whines more than my ex wife 😂🤣😂👌💯
😂😂😂
That's what your ex told me about you.
This brings back memories, all these Countach replicas usually look worse than they are underneath but yours looks pretty good, as you said just a clean up needed 👍🙏☝️
G'day from Australia 👍🇦🇺

Thats a nice countach the ignitiion can be found in some fiats and alfa romeos and the stalks can be as well i believe
Push Button start
True that
@@Hardupgarage I meant add a Push Button start
sorry to say but those tie rods are welded and look quite unsafe
I really like replica countachs an this one is done pretty good , fyi that little panel under the car is for smuggling your foecaine of course.

DM MK111 can’t wait to see more of this, awesome😎
loving the quirky and unique cars! keep up the great content you hot car man.
Thanks matey
Awwww it sucks that you can't sit in it comfortably ☹️
Awesome bro can't wait to get the Lamborghini up running smashing that like
That poor thing deserves to have that entire suspension torn down, blasted, recoated, and reinstalled with new hardware.
Make this mint on the outside and make it reliable 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Whoa Danger Mouse's car 😲 no wayyyy
These kit cars give me a chuckle every time i see one😃
He's the greatest, he's fantastic
Wherever there's a banger he'll be there
Sa-am Hard (Amazing!)
Sa-am Hard (Astounding!)
SA-AM HARD!
BOOOM!!!
Something in the back of my mind, says the stalks, were, are the ones used in Austin, Morris Marina, Allegro, ones. Could be wrong though.
Are the indicator stalks fiat x1/9 ?
a nice BMW v12 implant would do this wonders!!
red lambo is from Chiba, Japan
It's got cheap copper brake pipes when it should really have aluminium or even steel pipes copper is crap under heavy braking
Dude I like and enjoy Tyler, Freddy mat, ect but your your the most for real tuber out there. Keep it up thxs
Thanks matey
Hey Sam you get a salvage Lamborghini motor with a Graciano transmission straight pipe it at a turbo gonna be really fast
is that orange camber car yours
Lubricate the lift mabye?😅 Nice Famborghini tho.!
whats the orange car on the deep wheels? is it for sale?

Those rear panels were also on other years. I know of a 1985 model with it from the factory.
Poor man’s auto channel …love it
Lee at Barum Engines will tell you which oil is recommended 👍
Looking good mate
If it was mine I'd redo the front suspension and up date the Motor and re do that interior .
Looks like its built from a Trashcan😂
What's wrong with being around since 1974...I have!! 😂😂
That's a gorgeous replica....who cares if it's not perfect...I'd love that car
They look like fiat stalks to me. 127/131/132
the video contains
70% your face
30% fake Lamborghini
Nothing but closeups of this guy's face...
I need that …..🤜💥🤛
It looks more than decent ... if its really worth it , it would be amazing to put a more powerful engine in it and make it a real supercar
That trafficator look like it came off a Fiat ritmo🤔
defo speed sensor near driveshaft older style
This dude looks like the cherno alpha pilot from the Pacific rim
dashboard lights look like they are out of a Mercedes 308 van

Too wide for the ramp, and here it is on the ramp.
Love the Danger Mouse Car. Grew up with the show. Greetings from Australia
greease your ramp :)
Those steering column stalks look like fiat x19 ones
Living the dream mate maybe you can treat your 4 poster to a bit of grease ha ha ha take the danger mouse car to gumball
I'm not a big lover of these fake kit cars but I quite like this car ...
You post it we will watch
Thanks matey

someone has joined ingnition wires together and joined thicker starter wire to the ingnition wires. to make it start from battery another old trick

@@Hardupgarage you’re welcome. Very good replica you have 👍

@@Hardupgaragecolumn switches are early fiat x19 (pre 85) on later cars they dropped the 'paddle style' ends.
This needs a Toyota 3UZ-FE 4.3L V8 from a Lexus LS400 or Celsior...These V8s are Bulletproof
What kit replica is it.?
Agreed, this is dope
Im getting Fiat Ritmo or perhaps late fiat 127 vibes from those indicator stalks
Any SU carbs on lump
Really need to grease that lift! 👍🏻
Find crashed countach of the wolf of the wall street
Man, grease your lift God that sounded like fingernails scraping a chalkboard
I would rather drive this than a real one! Needs another engine though. 👍🏻
Its a FORD GB RACING SPORT 3500cc V6.
Thanks matey
You need to make more longer videos
No problem
My dream car
