    As originally equipped it was a huge PITA to clean the glass. I think? that's why they stopped. Over here Bob Huber has remanufactured one that is far superior in quality and it detaches from the car in one piece via spring loaded pins incorporated in the grill.

    He'll make one for you if you want it.

    Yes this car did not have it.

    I wasn't aware that 7293 had returned to Europe.

    I wonder where they got the grill?

    Check over on VLG, there were some recent discussions and photos of tool kits. There's a late Espada toolkit that's very complete but it's also probably too late for our cars Gary. I have the cruddy loose weave burlaps tool bags. No belt s or covers.

    The wheel chock is what you meant?

    Even that car is not that early of an S1, note the hydraulic rear hatch lifts.

    But what do you mean by a sticker is fitted?

    You're saying it's just a decal a fake? How tacky if true.

    #7356 is probably not belonging to Dietmar anymore. When I was in Essen on Saturday the car was still for sale. On Sunday a friend of me was on the Klima lounge stand and saw the car with a leaflet "venduto".

    Well one good thing is the low maintenance! A first for a Lamborghini ... :p

    I have photos, possible already in this thread, of one that had stick on bars made to look like the vertical lasts as well as louvers on the hatch glass. A real mess of a car when I photographed it but the question is ... who made that stuff? How many of these kits could they have even sold?

    It was like J.C. Whitney does an Espada.

    I'll look for them. Almost but not quite as bad as that Russian rework on an Espada. Hopefully that's in a gulag by now somewhere in Siberia. WITH IT'S MODIFIER!

    Are you talking about the Yahoo Groups website?

    If you're a member of Yahoo and were previously a member of the VLG group there shouldn't be any problem.

    So what's the story?

    As to the new format, yes most hate it. It wasn't a choice.

    Really?

    Under the Vintage Lamborghini Garage Banner click on Photos.

    Scroll down three rows and the one on the far right is what you're looking for.

    Click on that.

    When you do an album of four photos opens up.

    Click on a photo and it should expand to full page size.

    That's the album of photos section.

    Photos posted in threads are found in the attachments area as well as with the post in a thread. Go back to the banner page and click More it will open a drop down box.

    Scrolling through very long lists of photos does not happen in page fashion it's just one enormous scroll. That does suck IMHO. It's not nearly the only thing that sucks either.
    The designers of this new interface began by shoving their heads where the sun don't shine, liked what they found a lot and stayed there. But posting photos and viewing them is a lot easier than it was. Photos embedded in email submissions are still stripped except for being distributed to other email subscribers.

    One tip. When you post online don't leave the page or do anything until it finishes. It's not all that obvious about letting you know when is has finished.

    Hi,

    Does any body know why there is a difference (and therefore price) in crankshafts for the Espada?

    Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you,

    Matt
