    Either way, your car your choice, but if you must mount mirrors, they ought to be Vitaloni Sebrings!

    The factory did deliver cars with Sebrings already mounted, as did some dealers.

    Very few cars had no mirrors mounted, and that's a cool look also.

    Digged from my archives, this diagram I've done in the 80's from the data published in the Marchet-Coltrin Miura book.

    I found it interesting today looking at it again - so, it's why I simply wanted to share it here :

    Almost as many white as yellow? Maybe many that left the factory painted white have been repainted a different colour over the decades?

    Orange or "arancio" is the best color for a Miura.

    I'm surprised black wasn't a more popular choice. Black hides a lot of the details in some cars but the Miura loses nothing and is perfectly suited to black.

    Joe, Walter, Philippe, Olivier, and to all the Miura experts of the world,

    Does anybody know the owner of 3384?
    Or have information of its last whereabouts?

    I would like to try and reunite it with its original engine

    Gaëtan

    P.S. Its my first message here, i'm new...but learning fast. Its a real pleasure to join all you legends :)

    What Becker/Blaupunkt units would have been installed at the factory for Miura applications in 1971/1972? Any ideas?

    Can't find my Miura Bible!! And they are sold out on Amazon!


    Best,

    John

    2 of my 5 SVs had Becker Mexicos installed, and one USA SV had a Blaupunkt 8-track FM radio.
