RE: [VintageLambo] Re: Espada S1 chassis plate

Checked my Espada"s engine compartment stampings last night. It, too, reads *750*113*, the 113 corresponding to the linear build number. As I said before, I believe 750 was an internal Bertone designation, perhaps for the design number or stamping die set.

It was buried under the coil, some AC hoses, and 30+ yrs of oil. Anyone with an early Espada have this same plate?What exactly does this number represent?Which is my S/N, the 7056 from the chassis number (*750*0056*), or the 7162 from this other plate?Is that the engine number?Where would I find the engine stamped? Thanks for all the help, Udo
