    Bids (or lack off) reflect the times. It is a beautiful example.

    For the money, he could replace the carpet, have the correct upholstery, clean up the front wheels where he blew the brake lines out. The hood inner lip is not looking very well.

    If you ask top dollar, it should at least be correct.

    Besides that, it is a pretty car

    It does state on the photos of the paperwork that it is equipped with a 3.42 Posi-Traction. I think perhaps the seller, or author of the ad, does not know the car.

    I got an e-mail back from the seller...it is all numbers-matching and the rear is a 3.42. I am pretty sure it's the real deal, and LOADED too. I would like to have this one.

    Maybe the POP is still attached or imprinted on that warranty booklet?

    I really like the "Buick" color combo...it appears to be a nice survivor car with fresh paint...the engine and under side looks clean and untouched.

    From the current owner when I asked him if its numbers matching and RS and BB stamped:

    I believe it is completely original except top, paint and exhaust which have been replace or repainted. The engine, transmission and carb have never been removed or out of the car. It has never been wrecked as far as I know. I did a small body on restoration but the paint had already been done right before I bought it. I the car was purchased from Gary Seale at Lamborghini Dallas and he is now manager at Lamborghini Houston. He knew the owner before me very well.

    Latest update from the owner:

    I have had it for 2 years. Nothing to do it at all unless you want to do a body off. I think the value lies in the fact that its still so original and you know what you are getting. I have a reserve set at 50k and will not budge. Only 212 Stage 1 conv were built and when you look at that number how many were built loaded like this and that you can confirm its original matching numbers, miles etc.....
