Peter K Report post Posted February 12, 2007 Chelle, You may or may not know but I, and some here, have been trying to figure out the color of my blue Countach. Please, tell me what color blue is the car. And if a Lambo color, what is the color code? Thanks in advance! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please, tell me what color blue is the car. And if a Lambo color, what is the color code? Thanks in advance! Peter, Sorry,t's not a factory color, we spent about 3 hours going through the paint chip books before deciding on that one. i still have the can with the code on it - will try and get over to identify it for you in the next couple days. I love how that color changes depending on the light. At night it looks like a lot darker blue. Chelle Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skogens Baron Report post Posted February 20, 2007 I'm finally going to purchase the belts for my Urraco. I'm oredering the belts from a guy in Sweden. Then it was the questions of the bearings. Some of you used SKF bearings? where can i get those, and does somebody have a parts number? An other option is ordering the bearings original from lamborghini. I dont know what is the best thing to do. My Urraco also needs some new tires.. Does anybody have some good experiences? What brand wil fit like the originals? The originals is Michelin XvX and four brand new ones would be quite expensive.. Best regards Daniel Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best regards Daniel Daniel, here's the original Lambo part.. it's SKF, just go to your local bearing supplier and ask them to cross reference the number or take one of your old ones to any local bearing supplier. They can measure it and give you a modern replacement. I honestly don't remember what tires we put on #15732.. will try and get out there and take a look. Personally I didn't like the way the XWX's handled.. we went with original size, but a different manufacturer. Chelle Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's the same even the bearing for the alternator/water pump tensioner is the same Hope this helps! On a side note.. wondering why the pics I posted vanished.. anyone know?

Skogens Baron Report post Posted February 22, 2007 Ok! great! Then i could just cross refernce the number and get the right bearings. Wonderful, you all are very helpfull! Thank you so Mutch. I can't wait for summer and going for a spin in the urraco with no worries about the timingbelt Whats left when the belt is done is four new tires, and some gas! If you could check the manufacturer of your tires when you got the time it would be great Chelle My pictures vanished too.. I dont know why, but it seems like som strange things has been going on with this forum lately Best Regards Daniel Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohlgren Report post Posted February 24, 2007 Here are some pics of mine. I am gearing up for a round of repairs. This Jalpa has been poorly maintained or rather has very sketchy workmanship. I have a gasket leak which is making it impossible to tune, which makes it fail DEQ, which makes me unable to register it, which makes it illegal to drive. You get the idea. I hope to show some pics of the work soon. I am sure I will be bugging everyone for part leads soon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Report post Posted February 24, 2007 Does anyone get Hemmings Sports and Exotics magizine? In the dec 2006 issue was an artical about a Urraco in I think California. That car was the next one after mine. His chassis is 950, mines 948. (last 3 ) I think thats cool. I'm going to try and get hold of him and see if he knows any history. Maybe ours came over here together. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
