  1. This is a cold start, first time we've ran this car after a long restoration.
  2. Does anybody know which one was auctioned off at Mecum in 2014? ...this one: https://www.mecum.com/lot-detail/FL0114-174...dition/5-Speed/
  3. How did the guy know it was a '99 year car? That's the only thing that didn't make sense there, you can't tell that by staring at a car in front of you...if I was doing the same the actual year of manufacture would not be something I'd say...
  4. If these one day become the Ferrari GTOs of the early 90s somebody will have gotten a fantastic deal! :-)
  5. Didn't realize this was the latest post on the same car... The bumper damage that you refer to is the rear quarter panel indentation which happens when a hard hit happens, it's made to be a shock crumple zone on cars in general. Long time ago in college I had an accident where somebody hit me in the front corner and the rear quarter dented in because of the impact. Anyway - long story short, google Shamille's blue roadster on FChat and he suffered the same hit, it's in the lambo forum and a similar hit to the door and subsequent inspection proved there was irreversible (not cost-effective to repair) frame damage. Once again - too many questions to answer if it ever came time to resell...
  6. I was actually the high bidder on that eBay Diablo...at $100K, talked to the seller then did some due diligence based on the VIN, just google the VIN and search Google images. It shows pretty serious? side impact, similar to the shamille's car on F-Chat which suffered frame damage and was Totaled by the insurance company because of this. To me - too much risk, and questions will be raised when trying to sell it. From my understanding aluminum frame construction does not bode well to frame damage impacts so...
  7. Are there any alternates for this Lamborghini part? 16 pcs at roughly $100 each are required for a full suspension overhaul...seems steep for a bushing? Thank you.
  8. You may be missing a zero on the cost? I think pricing them from Lambo is about UKP 3,000 or so? Considering front and rear joints. I read the other threads on the joints from White Racing; was just wondering if there are any other alternatives.
  9. What do you guys recommend for a suspension rebuild? What to replace, where to get them, etc... Thanks.
  10. I am pretty sure the fee went from 6% in 2013 to 8% in 2014 for the buyer side. Somebody in my group purchased a car and did have to pay 8% premium on Saturday when they settled the account.
  11. I was at the auction; this hammered for $120K + 8% buyer's premium. The tractor was $17K + 8% premium.
  12. What is that in USD, around $200K?
  13. Hi, can somebody please let me know the difference in size between the LP400S pistons and the QV ones? Are they interchangeable by any chance? Thanks!
