He also used a Fiero to build a Countach replica

cool, but would be concerned with the metal structure on that lambo replica. Not much there for rollover protection.

LOL. They called all the Lambo replicas as Lambo replicas, but the 355 Kit was just a "Pontiac Fiero" in the list.

Lamborghini kits AND originals are ugly anyways. I'll take the F1 any day.

Yeah... but in all fairness it looked to me like it was just an F355 nose on an otherwise stock Fiero.

I don't know what it is exactly... ... but I really, REALLY like that black Countach kit car. It's in no way near close to the real thing, but for some reason that kit body just has a real quirky unique-ness to it. Although it's likely that way due to all the frame cutting he did to the donor car which allowed that body to be installed.

Not sure about that. It's not a high-res picture, but the hood and sail panel areas look different to me. Certainly doesn't look like a finished kit by any means. But the subtext for the picture reads like it is a replica of a Pontiac Fiero (versus a replica of a 355, even if it's a stubby kit or work in progress).

Hands down, the strangest looking Countach yet, the scary part is that somewhere in the world, there is a mold to make more!!!

My thought exactly.

------------------
Anything I might say is probably worth what you paid for it, so treat it accordingly!
