A long time ago I read about the famous Countach cars that were comissioned by Canadian business man Walter Wolf back when he managed his own F1 team during the late 70's. I was delighted to see them included in Assetto Corsa, but the rather poor resolution of the logos kinda pushed me away from using them as screenshot material. So I always had in mind recreating these not very complex skins from zero.
But when I started to investigate about the cars, I found out that the real cars differed from the skins we got in the game. According to the info I found on several car websites, Wolf comissioned three cars and not four like the AC skins seem to imply. Two of them are correct, red and blue, but I couldn't find any evidence of any black and green Countaches owned by Wolf. I did learn about a third car he owned and wasn't in the game, a navy blue Countach with red linework on its body. I can't fully assure if the green and black cars existed or not, but since all of them looked very good I decided to remake all four skins in higher resolution and also create the navy blue one.
