    As far as I know Chad has some of these parts in Stock.

    When we did my gearbox we made a new main axle and could reuse the old gears.

    Looking around both headlights a dash of red is visible..is this repaint to match the the silver one??
    Is this a fresh crash? I thought I've seen the pic of a crashed c/t sitting alone like this one in a parking lot somewhere? Couldn't have been more than a year or so ago.

    This car was originally red. It is now grigio (grey), not silver.

    Not sure of exact date, but last year this time I saw pics of it intact.

    North Carolina I think, not sure of any details.

    No, this is not the one of one silver USA Annivesario (12670). Also, the crashed car is not silver (Argento), it is grey (Grigio). Furthermore, for purposes of clarification, the silver car (12670), has a red interior. FWIW 12670 remains intact and accident-free.

    Kirk M's car. Resides, in one piece, in NJ.
    Like his sliver better than the gray. Kirk's car is brilliant in person.

    Agreed, if ever there was a Lamborghini that looks so much better in person, this is it.

    A small aside: it no longer resides in NJ.

    Best,
