    I know, I know. They live in Europe but the car stays in Cali. Jet Setters?

    you are not alone

    supercool, period, perfect for the shape colour, i think there are few colours that suit the car as that (yellow and silver probably)

    add orange was and somewhat still is THE brand colour....

    The Caddy in the background looks to be up on jack stands. Based on the "ride height", perhaps the Countach is as well.

    I would guess it would take the load off of the springs during long term storage.

    No mirrors: very good decision. Which will be the colour combination for your LP400?

    Although red/black is not my favourite colour combination for the LP400, it is a good decision to keep original standards.

    CZ, how is your wonderful Periscopa coming along? Did Paratelli do the seats?

    The car's restoration might be finished in 2008, but I assume it will be ready to drive not before 2009. Let's see. Bruno Paratelli did the seats, yes. I did not see them up to now, but I was told that they look perfect.
