    Would like to know where it ended up... By chance do you know the VIN? VIN must start with DLA12xx if its a 1983.

    I haven't confirmed which one his is, but it could be one of at least three different Nero/Rosso LP500S that came to the USA in the early 80s

    We have a LP400 vintage photos thread, this image of 1120280 was taken in contemporary times, as you can see this thread started with and contains a lot of LP400 content, I try to post LP400 vintage photos in the other thread whenever possible

    Yes, original livery.

    I flew Maestro Vale to the country where it was resident in northern Europe to check it out and tell me if everything was in order prior to purchase.

    He made a list for us, but it was very short.

    Thank you.

    The LP400S S3 was the first variant of Mimran's Nuova Automobili Lamborghini tenure, significant because it was a Countach with adequate ground-clearance and cockpit space, and it became the platform for the 5-liter Countach that took a decade to become a production reality

    I think you mean tires, but now that the new Pirelli Cinturato P7s are with us, there's no excuse not to have a matching set of 4.

    Fantastic color !! Suspension needs height adjustment IMO ? Wheels look great as the casting irregularities in the small circles have been hand sanded smooth as I have done on several cars, not original but looks better.
