Bear in mind the controversy when Liberty Stroll modified an Eighties icon into one in every of their wide-body fashions final 12 months? Sure, we’re speaking in regards to the Ferrari F40 Kato-san become an LB-WORKS model, a type of vehicles you both love or hate, and let’s face it, that wasn’t the primary time Liberty Stroll did one thing to upset automotive fans world wide, in 2018 Kato-san actually upset nearly everyone within the automotive group when he unveiled the black Lamborghini Miura wide-body on the TAS, the Tokyo Auto Salon, thankfully, 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 be taught that for the upcoming Tokyo Auto Salon that may open its doorways on January 12, 2024 there might be one thing to get the automotive world speaking once more … an LB-WORKS Countach, try a video launch they revealed on YouTube not too long ago:
It appears they’re utilizing a Lamborghini Countach twenty fifth Anniversary as a foundation for this wide-body conversion, full with these traditional ‘rivetted on’ fender flares, an enormous rear wing that appears to be fastened onto the chassis, an especially deep dish wheel, and naturally what appears to be an air trip suspension to get the automotive as low to the bottom as doable. On the entrance, we acknowledge a special entrance bumper that reminds us of the 1999 Diablo GT unit whereas the ‘streaked’ aspect 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 may be an air consumption mounted on prime of the engine cowl that attracts 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 really be constructed on a real, late Eighties Lamborghini Countach? It might 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 traditional, and an costly automotive 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 all the story.
