this was the Lambo who came to the United States for the first time, he was recognizable by the large bumpers prescribed there. And such a rare specimen was now a guest of the Canepa team for a small tuning cure. The order was to refine the cabin and completely restore the vehicle. And with regard to the cabin, the request is perfectly understandable. While the striking appearance and the phenomenal key data have always characterized a Lamborghini, the cheap and sometimes miserable workmanship in the interior also came along until the takeover of Audi. And that also applied to the Lamborghini Countach 5000 (LP5000S QV).  

Only 610 units of the LP5000 Quattrovalvole were brought to the world. And the 1986 unit we have here has been given a "concours restoration" by Canepa, with the Californian specialist preparing the Italian exotic for a new owner.  

As the company explains on Instagram, the vehicle was fully covered, but the factory black interior was left in its original condition 

However, Canepa took care of the problem and, after a complete restoration, fitted the vehicle from 1986 with an individual cabin according to customer requirements 

The in-house upholstery shop wrapped the entire passenger compartment in white leather, which was contrasted with green Alcantara accents. The seats, the door panels, the headlining and the lower part of the dashboard are covered in white leather. In contrast, the upper part of the dashboard is covered with green Alcantara. 

 

This gives the otherwise standard model an individual touch that brings a significantly higher standard than the series, particularly in terms of workmanship. Cool thing!
