Considering the Purchase of a Countach

After 5 years of owning and rebuilding my original DeTomaso Pantera GT5, I am considering selling it off and buying a Countach.
Been told the one to look for is the QV.
I turn my own wreches on my GT-5 which helps keep the costs down. Can replace the clutch in one day, cost 300.00. 460 HP Motor rebuild cost, 5,000.00, etc....
But after 5 years, I am starting to get that ich for something different.
Any thoughts or advise ?
This is my current car which is almost an everyday driver.

That is a beautiful car.

Good luck with finding a QV if that is indeed the route you decide to go. A lot of the guys on here really know their stuff and im sure they will be able to help you.

Go for the Countach!! There are a lot of great ones out there. Roy had one that was one of the best out there but sold it already. I have seen this one in person and it is damn near perfect!! If you are interested ask for Mike Wogronic

I agree, GO FOR IT (The Countach)!!!

A lot of guys here aren't, but I'm a 25th Anniv. FAN!!!

Countachs can be a Bear to work on or Fix Up so get the nicest one you can.
