    LP400s S2, can be identified by the side marker light under the plexi, from LP500s on the rectangular ones were used like on the F 308, 328. The Vitaloni indicates a later series 2 or even 3.

    S1 or S2 with some mods like side mirrors and intake grills...

    Could even be a LP400 converted to "S"

    The RHD part was obvious with the backward windshield wiper...

    I had said LP400... converted to "S"

    That car pictured is "no longer" a LP400 and your question was what kind of car?

    Answer it is a LP400... converted to "S"

    Right hand drive is about as important as saying: LP400 with wing.

    Very cool video.

    Pretty neat seeing the engine/gearbox going into the car, shift knob and all.
