    I've got a colleague that is looking for any early (up to 1982, I believe) lambo v12 in any shape (as it will get a complete rebuild anyway).

    So, it's time for you (and we know you're out there;)) to yank that lump off the shelf and offer it to a good enough cause... please.

    And, if lambo engines weren't rare enough, I can only imagine how difficult a Miura transaxle must be to find. But on the off chance, please let me know as well.

    Please IM me with any info whatsoever.

    Thanks in advance.

    Tim,

    I was hoping no one would ask, but he's involved in a Jota recreation of some type. I think they are actively hunting down any beat up Espadas/Isleros, but I figured if anyone would have such a thing, they'd probably be active on this forum.

    Anyway, thank you for any help in the matter.

    There's a beater Espada on eBay right now cheap. Don't cut up an Islero. They are much more rare than Miuras.

    The ebay Espada deserves to be rescued by a courageous passionate. Parting out a Lamborghini is a sin!

    Add lunatic to your list of adjectives. Yes it's a series 1 but it's been "screwed with" and that car is a lot of dollars away from being even just a nice driver.
    There are much better Espadas to spend some money on. Even the burgundy one that's been on there forever seems like a much better bet.

    The Miura transaxle is not a separate part. It is part of the block casting. If you want a Miura transaxle then you will need a Miura engine too.

    Cheers Jim
