O.M.G Another Jem, Entered in September Historics Auction ,
Ideal if you love a challenge and have big balls
Finding something like this is so rare and you have the ability along with deep pockets this opportunity
will not come up again, Think it's going to cause a lot of interest as well.
Reminds me of my Espada that i tore apart and didn't have the talent to finish what i started

How much are we talking do you think? £250k?
Would depend on if they find anything missing as you go along, I would have thought more like £150K /£175Kadd that to the purchase price whatever that's going be and unless you love a challenge or want your own personal nut and bolt rebuilt
Countach i would have thought it would be better to buy a going concern unless it goes for a song which it won't.

I can imagine the restoration taking quite some time, and tracking down the bits might be a challenge.
Interesting, though. Wonder why it was laid up for so long?
I've got a mate who loves projects like this,he will spend sometimes years restoring these cars and never seems to be in a hurry,Interesting, though. Wonder why it was laid up for so long?
When finished seems to lose interest in them either covering them up or selling them,
For him the enjoyment seems to be challenge of locating the parts and then putting it all back together,
Then starts all over again on something else that he's falling over,
Apart from giving the car a good shake down he never drives them again far preferring his truck,
He could well end up with this Countach if the bidding doesn't get to silly,

Why is the mileage in km when its RHD?This is an opportunity which I'm sure a lot of people would be interested in. From the various forum posts I've seen, I suspect there will be a lot of interest in this car and the bid will be high. When will there be another like this?
It's a process which I would love to do. To be involved in and make decisions on the build would be pretty cool. It was black / black originally. So tough choice, do you keep it original or not. Personally I would have another colour like Tahiti blue or that gorgeous green that was on the Pebble Beach concours winner.
Think the auction is the 29th Sep, so I'll be keeping an eye upon.
