OK, thanks to google and a handy pointer from a coworker as to the 
correct spelling.
It's GIUBO  (not guibo).. Italian, of course,
Giunto Boschi.. The flexible joint invented by Boschi, and sold by 
his company GIUBO SpA, starting around 1900.
They're a common feature on Italian cars.. You too can buy one for 
your Countach for $531, apparently.
One can read all about one version (in German) at
