With some help, I decided on a mounting location for the battery box, sure seems right at home in the front! And with how scatter brained I am, I thought it would be wise to draw up a to do list to help keep me on track!!!
I met a man with a dollar, we exchanged dollars and we still had a dollar. I met a man with an idea, we exchanged ideas and now we both have two ideas!!!

Over the weekend I received the metal for my roof section. Hope to get started on that as soon as my pipe roller arrives. Also got a battery box just need to decide where to mount it!

Wow, been awhile since I've been able to do anything on my car, I was fortunate enough to attend the Concours here in Des Moines Iowa about 3 weeks ago! 100's of some of the nicest Rolls Royce's, Audi's, Ferrari's etc. Thought I'd post a few that people here would be interested in! Sadly the green 640 running around town here did not make it!

I live in Southern California and I go to LA and Orange County quite a bit. You'd think if anybody would see them I would but I've never seen one on the road!
If I don't have time to do it right, when will I have time to do it over?

From PA to GA and FL they were never common for me to see either. In Orlando I saw an early murcie once but from a long distance. Been to Vegas once and didn't see any driving around there either. Nice pics!

Thanks again guys,

No progress on the control arms yet as I've been out of town, but I did make a pit stop at Lamborghini of Sarasota! I'm sure no one here cares all that much as most of you probably can walk down the street and see one first hand! But I for one being from Iowa don't get many opportunities to see these cars, in fact this is the first time I've seen a 640 style car in person! It is a LP650-4 to be exact which is pretty cool, they obviously had several other cars, but with the little time I had this is the one I chose to drool over!  To add fuel to the fire the wife had to call and gloat about a lime green LP640 that passed her on her way home from work the other day! I had no idea there was even one in Iowa! Sorry for my rant enjoy the Pics!!!  ::wave

Thanks Fellas, your right Pines they are not cheap at all, but I made them so that helps  ;) here is a pic with the bushings welded on the uppers, I think it will work. Still got the lowers to go!

Interesting design. I'll bet they weren't cheap!
