It was in March of 1974 when mass production of the Countach<\/a> started at the Lamborghini factory<\/a> in Sant\u2019Agata Bolognese; a model that entered into legend and remained on the market for a full 16 years. The Countach was the first Lamborghini whose bodywork was made \u201cin-house\u201d with panel-beating carried out by hand, and the first whose interiors were produced by the Lamborghini Upholstery Department, a real revolution which, 50 years on, has become a tradition at Sant\u2019Agata Bolognese<\/a>. On the occasion of this anniversary, Lamborghini has brought back the very first Countach LP 400 to the production line on which it was created, and where today the Lamborghini Revuelto<\/a> is produced, for a past and present photo shoot. Furthermore, Lamborghini has made some exclusive images of the Countach line available from its archives.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are proud to still be producing our super sports car models in the place where the Countach was created,\u201d commented Ranieri Niccoli, Lamborghini\u2019s <\/a>Chief Manufacturing Officer. \u201cProduction has radically changed since then and there was a marked transformation of many aspects starting with the production of the Countach right through to today’s models. Today our production is very different from 1974, but it retains the best aspects and brings together the manual skills of our operators and the best available technologies, giving rise to the so-called Manifattura Lamborghini Next Level. The common denominator between the production of the Countach and our cars today is attention to detail.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
