Living with a 1988 Lamborghini Countach replica. Videos of drives, shows, repairs and life with a kit car. The car is a custom tube chassis, 5.7ltr. fuel injected LT1 V8 under a Bill Kester Kustom Countach body. Also on the playlist is Share'n Rides were we look at viewers Replicas, Kit Car or Custom cars, along with some of customizing done to my own cars. I have been interested in kit cars since I was in my late teens and followed the industry. Never had time to build one so I bought one and shared what that was like on RU-vid. Along with everything I have learned along the way. This includes learning to video and edit as well. Hope you enjoy, comment, like and subscribe to the channel!
Have you considered putting in a mirror dash-cam? I have one in my Diablo and it makes a world of difference. You don't have to open the door to backup. You can actually see what's going on behind you while driving.
Loved the Conquest TSI! I was 14 when that car first came out and it was being displayed at a water park. Can't find too many of them anymore. The metal used to make many of the 80's Japanese 'muscle' cars rusted out easily unfortunately, so most are gone.
Hi Todd, this is Steve Stauffer from the USA PA. I just wanted to ask you about the car lift your using? What for make and model is it? Also wanted to tell you that I follow you on RU-vid and your car is awesome. I would like to own one like yours or a Diablo some day! Anyways if you could just ket me know what the name is of your lift I would appreciate it a lot. Thanks
Thanks appreciate the comments and you watching. This is what I have. Nothing special was actually the cheapest 8000lbs 4post I could find locally. directlift.ca/pro-park-8-plus/

You are way to big for that car... Sadly I suffer from same issue. Many vehicles I have to fold myself up to get in and out of! The trials of being a big guy. LoL
Looking good Todd! Hope you can figure out the shift issue. Probably a minor adjustment. I had my clutch plate springs come apart due to rubbing on the flywheel. ( Poorly engineered V8to Pontiac getrag 5 speed adapter kit from the 80’s. (Zumalt). I’ve got a custom plate now for the fix, and while engine/trans are out, I swapped the 327 for an old school 383 stroker!
Seems like building and buying a replica is based on the public’s opinion .. now that would matter if the public paid for it but as they don’t it’s best sticking you’re nose somewhere else ,, unless you can pull up to my house in a real one !!
You should check my Lambo the TS 140 at my sight, 20 years, 3 Rd motor, second set of tires, second paint job, but my own design work on the body and interior, and better exhaust, yes I drove it a lot. Looking good!
Yes sir!!! A Countach will ALWAYS be cool!!! I know this one is a kit car!!! But since this kit car is SO CLOSE down to details as a real Lamborghini Countach yes I love both!!! Good gowzo!!! I STILL have a poster in my room now of a Countach!!!!
When you had the dash off, I noticed the air vent hoses. My air blows, but I'm not sure how to run the round hoses from the center point, since the center air blower is rectangular shaped. I don't know if you have a video or pictures of how that should look.
It's on the back of the unit really hard to reach. You can make a manifold similar to how we did the round peg in a square hole. But you may find what you need on the vintage air site. They have some stock manifolds that maybe easier to modify.
