Bear in mind the controversy when Liberty Stroll modified an Eighties icon into one in all their wide-body fashions final yr? Sure, we’re speaking in regards to the Ferrari F40 Kato-san changed into an LB-WORKS model, a kind of automobiles you both love or hate, and let’s face it, that wasn’t the primary time Liberty Stroll did one thing to upset automobile fans all over the world, in 2018 Kato-san actually upset nearly all people within the automobile neighborhood when he unveiled the black Lamborghini Miura wide-body on the TAS, the Tokyo Auto Salon, luckily, it wasn’t primarily based on a seven-figure Lamborghini from the Sixties, however he constructed it on a reproduction, which was primarily based on a Ford GT40 recreation.

And it appears Kato-san isn’t calling it quits simply but, within the newest announcement from Liberty Stroll we study that for the upcoming Tokyo Auto Salon that may open its doorways on January 12, 2024 there can be one thing to get the automobile world speaking once more … an LB-WORKS Countach, try a video launch they revealed on YouTube just lately:

It appears they’re utilizing a Lamborghini Countach twenty fifth Anniversary as a foundation for this wide-body conversion, full with these basic ‘rivetted on’ fender flares, an enormous rear wing that appears to be mounted onto the chassis, a particularly deep dish wheel, and naturally what appears to be an air experience suspension to get the automobile as low to the bottom as attainable. On the entrance, we acknowledge a unique entrance bumper that reminds us of the 1999 Diablo GT unit whereas the ‘streaked’ facet sills discovered on the unique Countach twenty fifth Anniversary appear to have been changed by wider and decrease items by Liberty Stroll, it even appears there’s an air consumption mounted on prime of the engine cowl that pulls in air from above the flat roof panel.

May this be one other LB-Works primarily based on a reproduction like we’ve seen with the Miura, or will this one truly be constructed on a real, late Eighties Lamborghini Countach? It may very effectively be an actual Countach beneath because the twenty fifth Anniversary is without doubt one of the highest manufacturing quantity Countach on the market with over 600 items constructed, however it’s nonetheless a uncommon basic, and an costly automobile to chop up and customise … we’ll have to attend for the official unveil in lower than two weeks in Tokyo to get all the main points … however I’m keen to seek out out the whole story.
