Lamborghini LP500 Prototype

by walidkhier

There are tons of all variants of the lamborghini Countach model kits in almost all scales. However, there is not a single kit or a model of the original LP500 prototype that I am aware of. Therefore, I decided to construct a printable and buildable model kit of this ultra rare car. The process turned out to be much harder than I originally expected, mainly because the lack of information. Detailed comparison with the few pictures avaialble revealed that the blueprints I ws using are useless. I went through ten complete iterations until I became somewhat satisfied with the overall shape. My original intention was to make it as detailed as possible. However, I had to give up idea of opening doors. The engine compartment and rear trunk may be opened in a future release. Did i say release? The model attached here is just to give an idea how the final model will look like. There are still some adjustments to the body and detailing of the wheels on the To Do list. The complete interior and underbody is missing too. But in case someone wants to try fixing the body on a Fujimi or Aoshima chasis, here is a good start. The model is in original size. It can be scaled as desired. Finally, I will upload the finished parts as soon as they are completed. PS. The file is too big to be uploaded here, therefore, had to compress the STL. Thingiverse requires some sort of CAD file must be included. I had added a tire to fulfill the requirements.
