    Yes, France is a nice country for cars... but not for drivers with all these cops chasing you !!!

    When it left my garage on a trailer it had 64.221 km, 227 km is the mileage I did on it within 3 rides.

    nice pic.
    I do agree regarding the policy on road. I do prefer education instead of repression.

    First time at last to see this one in Finland!
    My friends clip from Espoo:
    [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4WcfRqci5zE]Lamborghini 350GT ´65 in Finland - YouTube[/ame]

    Today in sunday I had luck to see it also.
    The car were in Turku's Classic Sportscar Concours D´Elegance- meeting. Took "some images" of it of course. And they will be on the net somepoint when I have time enough. :)
    The owner told the car is from 1965. I don't know really anything else than it this.

    I have to say it's one of the most beautifulest Classic GT cars I know.
    In pictures and scale model the car looks absolutely stunning, but now when saw it live; it's stunning looking Lamborghini. Real GT. :) Superb beatifull and the sound....:)

    Anyway; one question about the head lights:
    400GT and 400GT 2+2 has different head lights than 350GT, this one had lights which are seen in those models.
    Did Lamborghini these 350GT's with these double head lights or has this car updated lights, non an orginal lights??
    Thank you for answer!

    350 GT was fitted with mono Bosch lights while the 2 other models you mentionned were fitted with dual. So, it could have been changed later.

    OK. That's what really mixed me up last evening. Heard that there is one 350GT in Finland but after seen that video clip; thought it wasn't that same car.
    Anyway; it was fantastic to see. :)

    Here some images of last weekends Concours meeting in Turku.
    First time to me see this 1965 350GT, don't know why they have changed the head lights but other way the car seems to be very much an orginal shape.
    Also good to get Countach on the background... :)

    Is this a 'well known' 350 GT ? VIN and history can be shared ?

    I found yesterday #886, engine #9x6, Touring #23866 in switzerland, needs a complete restoration. has none original Borani spoke wheels.
    Was bought long time ago by Rysanek from Fab Design in US and stored at a restorer, after the restorer passed away he brought the car to switzerland.

    As I'm following it, I've inquired to the seller that didn't provide me the VIN... he played a kind of quizz... so the pics leave to believe it is Argento but it is not... it's "Grigio Medio" with Tobacco, it was delivered new the 13th November 1965 in Italy... Telaio is #0244 & engine# 18008.

    It was delivered 2 days before I was born... I bid already...

    Thanks Olivier, hope you can make it and that this car comes back to Europe.

    18008 is probably Touring body number. According to Marcel's site, engine number should be #0187.

    I believe the 350 were fitted with Hella headlamps, a nice styling feature that was overrun by safety concerns in the late 60's.
    I think NSU, little coupes/sedans, used these for several years as well as MB commercial vehicles.

    When I spoke with the seller Monday June 24, he told me he had private bids (not through FleaBay) well above the FleaBay max bid at that time, which was around $215,000 (USD). He also said that he "found" the 350 GT that sold at the RM Don Davis Collection auction in April for $550,000, and that it was not a perfect car. He was beating around a small bush and looking for a big price for the FleaBay car. I asked if the body was aluminum or steel, and he got a bit stuffy and said that "they (referring to the 350 GT) were all aluminum", which I do not believe is the case. That the seller did not divulge the serial number in the FleaBay listing, and refused to do so when I specifically asked for it (as another poster noted in an earlier FChat message), was a major turn off for me, as was his general attitude in the phone conversation. According to the seller, this car has been sitting unused for 39 years, there "might" have been a repaint early in the car's history, and the engine is out and completely apart. If the listing was pulled because the seller got the number he wanted privately, I hope the buyer had his eyes open on the deal.
