Countach on 20/20

I remember a long time ago that 20/20 did a show on the Lamborghini Countach. They showed a crowd forming around a parked Countach and how difficult it is to drive it in reverse and things of that nature. Does anyone have any idea how to get a copy of that show? It would be cool if someone could digitize it for the net.

Damn, my neighbor was this really old guy but he died and he used to tape 20/20 episodes, he had like 300 tapes but when he kicked the bucket his kids shovelled all his crap into one big dumpster.

Lamborghini Show

Not 20/20 but 60 minutes. I had a copy on VHS along time ago. I let someone borrow it and never got it back. I want it bad! It aired on 60 minutes in the mid 1980's maybe 1985 or 1986. Morley Safer took a ride with Valentino Balboni on the Autostada at 180 m.p.h. in a red Countach. "This is no special effect, this is 180 m.p.h." They also show Mr. Lamborghini drving a white Countach. Best video ever. Can anyone get old copies of 60 minutes?

Oh yes, very true. Now I remember. Someone surely must be able to get this video?

you can see ride along video footage from 60minutes on the dvd at www.lambodvd.com

it's one of the best parts of the dvd, plus the sound is better than an old vhs copy, which i could never find

there's also an interview w/Valentino

I was really wanting to order that, too. Have to wait till next payday, though.

Let us know if it's worth it.
