This a a great Article on the Countach Prototype by www.Countach.ch.

Thank you for gathering information on this car.  Just wanted to share the info.

Countach Prototype

After the prototype did all the needed development and the first real LP400 #1120001 was produced, it had to prove the strength of the chassis and was destroyed in the barrier test at MIRA (GB).
So the first ever made Countach was destroyed and can never be restored again…

This second ever built Countach still exists, Countach Chassis #1120001 was first red and shown at the 1973 Geneva Motor Show, later repainted green and shown at the 1973 Paris Motor Show.

I found this car in 2000 in Switzerland and thanks to my obstinacy it’s now in the factory museum.
