Jalpa thread

I have long thought to buy a spare Jalpa as a part supply, I echo Derek that parts availability and cost are insane for these cars, as are the available technical information/data. I don't think a non-runner is worth 40-50k but at some point these cars will appreciate significantly.

Claude, there was a red 1984 Jalpa at Jiffy auto sales in Ontario and it just sold last month for $49,000 cdn. It had a engine rebuild, SS exhaust, msd ignition. That's what they are selling for! There are so many crazy asking prices but nobody is stupid enough to pay double what they are worth.

 

<~~~ Looking for Jalpa parts

 

I know I contacted Jiffy about it. he told me he has another and he's asking $75K this time.

The two cars I'm talking about are still looking good. You would think they are nice looking at the pictures. But haven't been driven for years and engine never started. But they are much more than just parts cars.

Here is the 88 which is the worst.

Silver on red with Bravos is a great color combo.

 

My friend is ready to pay $50K US for this one but the owner is asking more.

 

$51k? lol

 

if the guy on ebay that is parting out the blue Jalpa gets half of what he's asking for the parts its worth it as a breaker.

 

Ya! That would be great LOL. He wants to sell as a package deal for both asking US $118,000.

 

anyone know where to get a set of silhouette/brembo wheels for my JALPA??

thanx

thanxz guys!!!


anyone have any experience with them?

 

Yes I have a set, good quality, as heavy as the corvette wheel, and the tires are expensive, so check that out before buying (longstone tyre)

 

can you pm me with details & contact info

 

If I had a Jalpa, these wheels would be on it. There so sexy.

 

+1

 

What size tires fit on them?, and I assume they will fit on my 1985 Jalpa?

 

The Silhouette rear tyres are 285 40 15 but unfortunately Yokohama are no longer making then.

 

From longstone:


2 - 26/61-15 Michelin TB15 ZZ1907 321.00
2 - 18/60-15 Michelin TB15 ZZ1905 275.00
Goods Total: 1192.00
Delivery: Free
Tax: 0.00
Grand Total: 1192.00


Tires are very soft, I went through a set of rears quickly.

 

Geno, did you order your tires with Coker or Longstone?

 

Longstone. I dont think Coker had them, but might be wrong.

 

you might want to check pirelli P7 corsa vintage rally tires. much like the TB's they are avalible for street use in europe now. they offer them for the stratos and other gr4 cars so it should be close for the silhouettes/jalpa bravos

 

Looks Nice and my former info on JLA12381 was wrong, that belongs to HLA12361.

1988 Lamborghini Jalpa for sale: Anamera

 

Agree that looks like a great Jalpa. Auction estimate seems a little low to me, will be interesting to see what price it achieves.
