  1. Yes, that is an AC where the glove box should be, it is a factory unit. Hope it works. As for the garage, my plans are to finish the inside this summer. Drywall, paint, tile floor, arcade games and a bar. Heating unit a must. Right now, I'm out of space and no room to build more. 5 cars, that's my limit. Something has to go soon. The 76 930 is a great car, had it for about 15 years now.
  2. Finally got the car. All I can say is wow, what a beauty. You can definitely tell that it is nearly 40 years old. The smell, sounds, look. The weather is cold so I have barely driven it but my early impressions are... Steering is a bear at low speeds, trying to maneuver it into the garage, I felt my wrist breaking. Makes the CT seem easy. Clutch, much easier than the CT, no comparison. Shifting, almost like a normal car, nothing like the CT. The synchos definitely need some attention. Starts easily, idles great. Sounds less impressive than the CT. More to follow. Sorry about the quality of the pics, it is dam cold.
  3. I'm a millionaire. Graduated with a degress in How to be a Millionaire. Most of my friends are... you guessed it... Millionaires. Do you want to be a millionaire, if so send 39.95 to me.
  4. Ok for argument sake. What do you think I could get for my 87 QV, new clutch, worked out. 23K miles. Blk Blk. Not that I'm selling, but am curious.
  5. Can I get Multiple Owner 87 QV and 69 Islero. Thanks.
  6. Say it ain't so. Sad to see yours go. May it find a great home. Nice pics.
  7. It may still be the same car you saw on tv, all cars sold there have a buyers commision and other fees. 89K may have been the total out the door.
  8. This car has been on Ebay at least 4 times recently. It looks like it is in great condition. Is anyone familiar with the car or heard from the seller. He wants 67K for the car. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SHOW-CAR-LO...1QQcmdZViewItem
  9. I'm intereseted. Can you tell us more about the car. When did you sell, why, how was it running. Any problems, comments. Would love to hear your opinion, especially on what it is really worth. Thanks..
  10. Thanks for the feedback, truly appreciated. I agree with all your comments and am ready as soon as I find the right car. Mostly I agree with how rare these cars have become. I had considered a F355 spyder but those are a dime a dozen on ebay, in comparison, there is only one CT. Is this the wrong time of year to be looking, is fall, winter better? Am I going to pay a premium now as opposed to waiting it out. I am looking for Black with preferably black interior, with or without a wing. Would like to have 1987 or newer. Stephen, I will look for you this weekend at the meet. Look forward to seeing your car, again.
  11. Greeting, been following your site for awhile, trying to learn as much as I can before I jump both feet into the world of Lambo Ownership. Currently looking for a QV, poss 25th. I fit into that catagory of having CT pics on my wall growing up, well now I am grown and have the funds to make it happen. But I am leary about the maintainence issues. I live in the Philly area and had looked at the 86 CT at pro-auto. NYCT just bought it and many of you have seen his posts about the electrical problems. What I dont get is, that car had spent a year with Geroge Evans, they advertised a 150K in renovations, perfect car. Within a few weeks poor Stephen is rewiring the car thanks to numerous electrical problems. Now, Stephen is an electrical engineer in background and has the know how to work through this. I wouldn't know a ground wire from my *SS. What is the not-so skilled to do in these situations? Stephens experience is what I am afraid of, spending near 100k and getting home to find the lights not working or the engine not starting. My point is, if a car spends a year with one of the best and still has problems, how are the rest of the cars going to be. Or should I take a hint from George Evans himself and get a Ferrari. For those who don't know George, he drives an f-40, not a lambo. I used to live in Columbus and George has worked on my other cars for years. He says the CT is one of the worst cars ever in terms of maintainence. So here is my dilemma, I don't necessarily like the 25th the best, the skirts are a little cheesy, but I hear they have the highest reliability. Should I just go for at 25th given that they probably are going to give the least problems. Or should I go for an 87-88 QV in the hopes that the guy putting it together on the line, was sober that day. Most of the cars you see advertised are someone who had the car for a year, no problems, runs great. How do you know that the guy is not just ready to blow his head off due to the problems with his car. Let's face it, most don't run great and have NO problems. In addition, how about a good mechanic in the philly area, and how about a PPI from exoticcarsusa. Are they any good, has anyone used them. I really do appreciate all the help and hope to post within the next month or two pics of my new car. Like to hear your input into the 25th, are they that much better if you ignore the looks.
  12. This was just listed. Any thoughts. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/WHITE-ON-WH...orange]
