Udo, Well, we now know the build of your car. It appears you have chassis 7056, one of the first ten made. This would explain the 1967 registration, if it was delivered in the US before March 1968, most states would allow it to be registered and titled as a 1967 model year. By chance was this the Espada for sale at Fantasy Junction recently? I recall seeing the car only briefly, and that it was a very early vintage. If so, you got a heck of a deal. I don"t have any more ideas about a data plate. Maybe someone from the 400GT/Islero camp has an idea. Please keep us up to date on the car, and if you would like, send the information to Glen at the lamborghiniregistry.com.
