I have to wait a week or two for transport, but it was worth selling the 911 and 914 I'd say 
1987 Lamborghini Jalpa (needs electrical and TLC, but it'll be fun to get running again!)

I think the yellow stripe should stay on the nose

| I like the dusty old 911 better, but this is still cool. It's something you'll never see someone else driving for sure. |

All Jalpas were carb'd but with an electronic ignition system. I plan on upgrading that to MSD, however, since the ignition system is shot on this car and a replacement ignition box is $5,000 from Lamborghini. Common upgrade anyway, since it really woke them up and helped form what I've read.

Holy shit, you bought a freaking Jalpa. You have phenominal taste in cars. Maybe once you resurrect this one, if you're ready to move on and can find one a De Tomaso Mangusta should be next.
I look forward to reading about this. Any chance we can get a link to the forum where you'll be posting the lions share of the work?

Thank you so much for posting the photos. Truly a car you don't see - I don't think I've ever seen one in person. But I had the plastic model of one when I was a kid. Truly jealous  .
