Lamborghini Countach to beautify your wall


Auto art has been taken to a new level after an Orange County man bolted a 1974 black Lamborghini Countach to a wall inside his home. Millionaire Richard Moriarty hired a 70-ton crane to lower the Italian sports car into his mansion through a skylight in the living room. On Friday, the sleek black Countach with a license plate “FAASSTā€, was officially retired. 58-year-old, Moriarty bought the car 10 years ago, for $60,000 from a collector. But to maintain the car was a nightmare. He was tired of getting it towed time and again. A five-man crew maneuvered the 1,000-pound, engineless vehicle at 60 feet and hung it from a steel-reinforced wall with loops of half-inch-thick steel cable.

Explaining the unusual placement for the car, Moriarty said, ā€œI have a Lamborghini and I’ve got a big wall.ā€ But he was not satisfied completely and wanted to stencil some tire marks on the wall. Moriarty’s irreverent tastes don’t stop at home dĆ©cor only and the automotive addition to Moriarty’s cache of curiosities seemed only logical.
