Owner and designer of the car, Gordon Tronson, said that the vehicle “Originally had a small six-cylinder motor, obviously I've changed it somewhat.” The car now boasts a total of FOUR integrated 4.6 litre V8 double overhead cam 4 valves per cylinder supercharged motors with a custom made body and chassis.

This Countach was built by me from scratch using a 1/24 scale model as a guide. The Lamborghini Countach was a mid engined sports car produced by Italian automaker Lamborghini from 1974 to 1990. When I first saw pictures of it in the mid-seventies I knew I had to have one, so I built it myself. The mold was pulled from a wood buck that I formed by hand back in New Zealand. The buck was built in Canada in 1986. This is not a kit. I built it from scratch. I built a number of them. The car pictured in these photos was built and sold in 1992. Read More



Gordon Tronson, The Builder
If you have to ask why, you'll never understand Gordon Tronson. There is no reason to build a twin-engine, 1,000-horsepower hot rod, by yourself, in your garage. If you can somehow make sense of that, try this: Unlike practically every other twin-engine car ever built - and there have been quite a few, from drag racers to street cars - the power plants in Tronson's car are mounted side-by-side.
