1986 Countach LP5000QV
Chassis #GLA12945
Engine #12945
This QV was first registered in March 1, 1986. It is Red with a Champagne interior and is presently owned by Dany DiLullo of Alberta, Canada. He purchased the car in the summer of 1999 after having sold a Porsche 911 Turbo and considers the Lambo as the first true sports car that he's owned. Dany purchased the car from an oil man who had too much money and too much girth. He was fooling himself that one day he would get back in shape, however, that did not materialize and he just couldn't get in and out of the darn thing. At the time of purchase there were 23,000 Km on it.
Shortly after purchasing the car, Dany had an exhaust system designed and built in stainless steel, without any restrictions whatsoever. This resulted in a much more aggressive engine sound. Then, he added a computerized ignition system. The work was performed by Vladimir at Vladimir's Auto Import Car Service, and by Reg Riemer, who specializes in building Super-Supras. He is the president of the Supra club of Canada and he has a web page. These two gentlemen have been participating in the One Lap of America for the last few years and do a lot of work for a couple of fellow participants. One such participant is Guy and his brother Guy Courvosier from Cleveland. They sent a 1984 black countach (2 valves per cylinder) to Vladimir who just finished rebuilding the engine. The car has been driven back to Cleveland.
