Cars in the 1970s tended to look like this. Or this. Or this. Or this. And then the Lamborghini Countach came along, from space.
Launched in 1974 the world hadn’t seen anything like it, and the car instantly became a cult bedroom wall icon. It’s fortunate however, that most people know the Countach from a poster rather than from driving one, because they would probably be rather disappointed.
Why not stick to this then, Jerac‘s incredible Model Team replica of the 1970s icon. Jerac has captured the Countach’s wild shape to perfection and he’s even made instructions available so you can build your very own. Which means you can own a Countach for the looks without having to drive one, which really is what the car is all about.
Head to Jerac’s photostream via the link above to find of all his superb images plus a link to building instructions too.
There’s clearly a lot of care and attention gone into putting this together. It looks amazing, especially the Flickr photo – the one upon some high floor of a building, overlooking others. A really good effort, good choice of elements, and brilliant use of them, it must be said!
