I painted the block with krylon flat aluminum, then gave it a black wash, i added spark plug wires and detailed the cam covers with a silver pencil crayon.

Can't beat that price. (well...maybe free) It looks like it's going to be an awesome build. The engine looks great already.

I love the countach. This model and its engine seem pretty good too.

Looking good James... nice engine detail... you may want to find some better rear tires... the ones in that kit are too skinny!!!

That looks great James!
I always thought the Monogram Countach was a good kit. You are really doing it justice.

i want one!!! can someone tell me where i can get a contach now days?

Wow, thats one low price, i really want to get a countach but i can never find one when im online...
best of luck with yours, and by the way the engine looks absoultley amazing, so im expecting great things of this build. i will also use it as a reference if i get a countach.

oh ya i noticed those rear tires are on a diet lol, but I dont have any others that will fit on the Lambo rims

BTW, congrats on your new baby!:cheers:

Looks fantastic! the front seems higher than the rear. is it?

Sweet colour, what about some interior photos.

That was a pretty good investment I'd say - your 50cents is now looking like a million dollars! Super job as always.

BTW help me out here - could you remind me which one of these two is yours and which is the reference :smokin:
