    Came across this today...Everything's in SAE. Did they ever make a US spec gauge panel, or is this probably fabricated?

    Which brings up another question - does anyone know whether the Euro SW gauges were made specifically for Lamborghini, as part of a limited run? Or were they available over the counter in the 70's?

    I have seen several sw catalogs with stage III gauges but never a metric unit listed.

    This has been made up. The LP400 had kph speedo, but many of the other gauges, like the fuel, volts, amps are just the same as the original LP400. So this has been made up with a few US gauges. I have a box of SW gauges just like those, as they were used in many cars, custom cars, and race cars in the USA. I have never seen the kpm speedo used in the Countach anywhere else, so I believe that one was made up especially for the LP400 and is probably by far the most rare one of all, which may explain why the mph version is in this panel in the auction.
