Default I have lost a CLASSIC ISSUE ! ! !

I will start with the story. Short version. I got home too find the kids have cut up one of the most prized issues of Motor Trend. Does anybody remember the issue with the black Countach races the jet-powered helecopter. On the cover is a red-head next too the Countach. I would pull out my old issues once a year and dream. If you remember , please post. Also, a issue were the first Testrossa, with a very special one going too the presidant of Fiat at the time. It was a white and black , with some stainless steel some were in the car. Man i was young,like in the 7 grade.

I remember the Black Countach and the gorgeous redhead, don't remember the Helicopter...

Look in the Old LTalk archives, at the bottom, maybe Magazines, I think there is a scan of the cover of that issue.

The helicopter was a jet-powered Gazelle. And from what they wrote, the helecopter had a top speed of 180 mph, where the Countach said it had a top of 180 mph but was really close to 175-170 mph.MY girl is upset that i can almost cry over a magazine, can anybody relate. What makes it funny, i caught them in time from getting too some other Ferrari issuses, and the main issue was on the top of the pile, WITH JUICE WASTED ALL OVER THEM AH AH AH AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Default hows this?

Get all 12 issues for only 15 bucks

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...sPageName=WDVW


The red head was from Car and driver 1983 if you go to
http://www.lp112.com/Lambo/Magazines...ubmit&offset=0

they have listing of all kinds of magazines with lambos. Its kinda scary.
I used to have Car and driver from 1980 right up to 2004 but ran out of room for them all and tossed em
