Original Bertone drawing of the 1971 Lamborghini Countach LP500. This is a rare factory copy of the master technical blueprint made in the ’70s by Bertone.
This is a post-launch marketing illustration by the Design Illustrator Fausto Boscariol. While names like Marcello Gandini and Giorgetto Giugiaro dominate the world of automotive design, Fausto Boscariol remains a lesser-known yet pivotal figure. A skilled illustrator and designer at Bertone in the 1960s and ’70s, Boscariol transformed Gandini’s technical drawings into vivid, emotionally charged renderings for press and promotional materials. Among his most iconic works are a series of stunning illustrations of the Lamborghini Countach LP500 prototype — images that helped define the public image of this groundbreaking supercar.

1971 Lamborghini Countach LP500 Design Illustration
The Lamborghini Countach made its public debut more than 50 years ago at the 1971 Geneva Motor Show, instantly redefining what a radical supercar could look like. Designed by Marcello Gandini at Bertone, the Countach stunned the world with its sharp, futuristic lines and introduced iconic features—most notably its vertically-opening scissor doors, which came to be known as “Lambo doors.”
Essentially a race car for the road, the Countach featured an aluminum body mounted on a tubular space frame. It was engineered around Lamborghini’s existing V12 engine, placed in a longitudinal mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive configuration. This setup marked a significant shift from the Miura’s transverse layout, making the Countach the first mass-produced sports car to pair a longitudinally-mounted V12 with a mid-engine chassis—an innovation that would become the blueprint for future supercars.
