Countach LP400

Originally finished in Blu Tahiti, in the 1970s it was exported to Japan - repainted to Rosso and converted into a LP400S. In 2017 it was restored to original configuration.Delivered new via Lamborauto in 1975. Exported to Japan in the late 1970s and was subsequently converted to the style of an LP400S Series II Countach before being imported to the US in the early 1980s. It was then acquired by its current owner, who drove it regularly for about three years before placing it in storage for the ensuing two decades. In 2017, the car was sent to the selling dealer, San Diego’s Bobileff Motorcar Company, who performed a restoration that returned it to its original LP400 configuration. Work during the project included fabrication of a periscope-style roof and flareless fenders, a repaint in Tahiti Blue, reupholstery of the interior in tan leather, and overhauls of mechanical components including the 3.9-liter quad-cam V12. Additional features include six Weber 45 DCOE carburetors, twin-coil ignition, a five-speed manual transmission, a limited-slip differential, four-wheel coil-sprung independent suspension, four-wheel ventilated disc brakes, Campagnolo 14” alloy wheels, Stewart-Warner gauges, and air conditioning. Following completion of the restoration, the car won its class at the 2019 Las Vegas Concours d’Elegance. In 2022 it was sold for $898.000 at Bring A Trailer auction.
