    Downdraft HLA12060 has this emblem personal touch, over the years many cars have added a few things the owners prefer, some so good its hard for the uninitiated to tell it wasn't original

    The Alternator has the wrong diode plate, when it broke in 2003 the Bosch dealer had only a fitting Ford alternator, in case you want to correct this: Lamborghini Countach #GLA12997 Viva Italia 2003

    Amazing progress and quality!

    Joe Sackey, Can you PLEASE Upload more images of the flares and bumper? especially the insides like you have of the front bumper. I want to know how to model mine in 3D . Essentially I want ot be able to model an LP400 front and be able to just attach the bumper to it. I will be saving all those pics you have uploaded as they are great reference. Would like to see more of the front of the body without the bumper. Cheers :)

    You are welcome to use anything Ive already posted, and, next time I'm there I will try and take more of what you need. That said, I'm only there every other week so, sometimes I get there and bits & pieces have already been affixed in place, limiting my access to different angles, so please bear that in mind!
