Building A Lamborghini Countach Replica With A V12 Toyota 1GZ-FE - Ep: 1 (Introduction)

Watch Part 2 here:
• Building A Lamborghini...
As the title says, here's an introduction to our latest interesting project - restoring an abandoned Lamborghini Countach and fitting a JDM Toyota 1GZ-FE engine inside (5L V12 from a 1997 Toyota Century) - mated to an Audi 0A2 transaxle.
Before we get too far ahead, lets be obvious for those who didn't read the title - this is a replica Countach. Lamborghini purists would have a heart attack seeing a Toyota engine in a genuine Countach supercar. This isn't a stretched Pontiac Fiero or Toyota MR2 either, research has suggested this is an early Prova / Mirage Countach kit - full tube chassis with a virtually identical mold of a real Countach. Therefore, it looks pretty near identical to the real deal.
There is a lot to redo on this car (like the entire interior), but it'll certainly be a one of one when done - a JDM / Euro Countach hybrid of sorts.
*engine is Ford, not Chev.
