Eddies Diablo build

[eddie]

The gauges are 4” VDO with Lamborghini script , thanks to Jim Dinner who come over back in days and opened and installed

[eddie]

installed gauges, radio heat control I just place on for the picture.

[eddie]

finally got my dash wrapped up, next week door panel then seats and so on. guy was very busy but I did not mind waiting during a winter. I just unwrapped and placed it on . the two long things are A post inner covers

[eddie]

ok, I had to add round hole mesh so the Murcielago muffler is not that visible, and still, the engine can get some breathing. also per Jim Dinner, I hooked up the reverse light from the 016 gearbox.

[eddie]

thank u, Sam, still, a lot of work to be done, I send my dash parts and A post cover to be reupholstered should be done by end of the year then door panels, etc. I chosed charcoal with orange stitching. door panel and sear I may do two-tone. this man is from the Dominican does amazing work you can check on Instagram mcautotrim Toronto.

Hey Eddie, hope all is well.
I remember you sending me a photo of the engine cover that wouldn't fit. I would love to see how you got around that and see the your progress.
I'm in Dundas so not too far, if that's okay with you.

[eddie]

Yes I did , alternator was in its way,
I cut out where the ribs are and moved up . It’s been good 9 years ago
But I do remember it was pain in the As$ , like rest of the splashed. Body
I believe I bought it from Marcelo the cover . Actually I forgot who.

Eddy.... Looking awesome.
On my NAERC with a 3800 SC & Audi transmission the engine cover sits way too high and interfiers with the closing of the engine bonnet. DO you have the same issue? if not how did you resolve this.

[eddie]

Well , it’s getting cold so I dressed up the 3.8cs  for now not completely bolt yet,

[eddie]

no, I'm not doing upholstery, I can't even saw the button on my shirt.  about half-hour from my place mcautotrim , you can look upon at Instagram.

Thank you Dale
It’s been bit too long 11 years, but after 6 I took it as hobby, also very difficult when you are dealing with 100times splashed body
Nothing did not matched
Upholstery is next . All parts are ready to wrap

You doing it yourself?

[88.5countach]

Thanks , you may not know Joe sold the unit, everything in it
So no more coffee hang outs
But we should maybe in the next spring get together,
Jim Dinner it’s gonna help me with front wheels adjustment
Anyway will keep in touch
I had to put temp tail lights so the CAA would tow it back home under my Fords tags lol cause they are taking picture of the rear car before load up

We can do it at my place if your up to the drive to Cambridge.  Where I shot Joe's yellow Diablo you did.

We can round up the current owners and past owners/builder's.  You thinking of going to Carlisle?

lol, can't remember what I did yesterday, let alone a couple years ago.  Odd you can fly over the boarder by can't drive, go figure?  Agree to early to plan for sure but wanted to put the bug in your ear......so to speak.
