They were great kits (you can probably still get them today). They were made better by the fact that the Countach isn't a big car to begin with, and isn't exactly blessed with a curvacious body...it made it very easy for kit car makers to assemble kits of various quality, from cheap ones to very good ones that would make anyone look twice.

Sure is, I was in the passenger seat. Or stopped. Yes stopped with the engine on means you are still driving I know, I know.

Doesn't a replica have to actually look like the thing its trying to replicate. This looks nothing even close to a GT40.
