Bill, shipping cars back to the u.k. is not necessarily a problem.Loads of European classics are imported each year espescially from dry places such as L.A.I think there are companies here who do the whole job so if you hear of any thing please let me know and I will look in to the shipping issue. I did pay a nominal sum for the Espada but I could not turn it down due to previous experiences such as in 1984 when looking for an E.type Jag I turned down two funny little German cars for £750 thats about $1100.one was a hard top and one a rag top they were part restored andturned out to be porshe 956"s I also pondered too long on an E-type rag top with, would you beleive an M.G.B. engine fitted for economy as the ad. read! which was up for about $1800. So I"m keen not to make the same mistakes again. -----Original Message----- From: wspohn4@aol.com [mailto:wspohn4@aol.com] Sent: 02 March 2003 23:35 To: vintagelambo@yahoogroups.com Subject: [VintageLambo] Re: FW: Re: lambo espada series three parts wanted and find id...

I know what you mean but at least I haven"t got the job of stripping it out to restore it I don"t think any one has ever sat in the other three seats. and the body and chassis are spotless so its a start. Do you know of any rotten ones going? I knew of one, but on this continent, so no good to you. I"m sure you"ll be able to find a rotted/crashed car with patience. Bill
