    WOW. Thanks for that. Ive seen different images of this car before.

    And here is His Imperial Highness' LP400... the car is indeed on jack stands and the door shock long since deflated is augmented by a prop.

    Very cool. Still in France? I'm bad with colour but is it the same as the prior photo's from Mr. Giotto?

    No the Rosso Granada car is different from the yellow Wiliment car posted by GIOTTO.

    The Rosso Granada car is Ex-Shah of Iran. In a location, far, far away...

    There are some other really neat goodies in that photo in addition to the LP400 and the Miura. The Boxer is always nice in black, and that looks like a Ghibli in the background, but with a targa top???? Any other information on that car?

    I noticed the positioning of the jack on the passenger side of the LP 400. The stand looks like it may be under the rod that runs from the suspension to the frame.

    If this is the case, is it possible that this rod is now bent?

    1120048 had the colour combination "giallo fly/tabacco", so perhaps you are right. Unfortunately we can not see the colour of the interior, but it could be "tabacco".

    2 Ghiblis were made (converted!) in Italy in the early 70ies. Both cars found their way to the USA and at least one of them was owned by Bob Grossmann. No idea if those 2 cars survived. I am not sure if the Ghibli on that photo is a targa!

    Thanks for sharing these photos. This probably is 1120022 (can someone confirm that?). I know that 1120022 stayed in Germany until 1999 or 2000, that it was black, had some "S" modifications and was later sold to Sweden. Offered to me at DM 99.000 (about EUR 50.000) in the end of 1998, but I did not see the car as I wanted a car without these modifications.

    However, I can not believe that this is a Walter Wolf car. Do you know more about that car? Or do you have a photo of the interior?

    Nice photos. It's not an Ex-Walter Wolf car but 1120022.

    I'm sure it is not a Wolf car but I do like the wolf style round fenders (compared to the squared S fenders) and the special Wolf Wing.
    Nice pics !! Thanks for sharing

    Too bad it is now repainted in silver and back to a narrow body :(
