Is that the regular panel gap or has that been in an accident?

Spotted yesterday and again today while I was sitting in traffic - what appears to be a Countach under a cover. Streetview link:

Going back through the years to 2009, there's been something sitting there under a cover the whole time. Could it be a real Countach, left unused like that 512 BBi that Ratarossa is restoring?

I posted it to the Sitting There Rotting On A Driveway group on Facebook who have spotted it before. There is a second one as well. Almost certainly kits.

Saw a white mid-engined Corvette on the M5 last night. Utter mess.
And a Fiat X1/9, there can’t be many of those left.

I knew what you were talking about before clicking on the link
I used to drive past them regularly, they've never moved in the 4 years I was in Stourbridge. I always suspected them to be kits.

Not spotted IRL, and not for sale either so doesn't fit the ebay thread, so wasn't sure where to post it. But looks absolutely fantastic. Alfa GTV with Ferrari 360 engine.

Loads of interesting things spotted on the way to Birmingham, top one was a DB5 that while moving under its own power, looked very much like a rolling restoration project with at least half the car in what looked like rough primer.
Also drove past our old flat in Moseley, it was quite nostalgic.

Did you try to drive down any side roads and find the old rat runs closed off? Driving into Birmingham through Kings Heath is a pain now.

I didn't even try, Google told me what to do and I obeyed the commands. So much has changed!
