as i asked elsewhere...anyone know what's the story on this? Jalpa being sold w/o engine or transmission?? it's like buying a race horse that has no legs !?

One less Jalpa on the road now.... what a shame.

I notice that neither Glenn or Raymond have it on their registry sites. So, one more Jalpa found, but this one I think is destined to be broken apart and sold for spare parts....

And if it stays at $520.00 I would purchase it but im sure it will go up.

What will it take to get a LS6 put into this? Can it even be done? Looks like a challenge

I know of a engine/tran unit in switzerland; unfotunately this car is in us...

When Frank Sinatra got his Miura S in 1970, he said: “If you wanna be someone, buy Ferrari - If you are someone, you own a Lamborghini”.

Euro spares had a wrecked Jalpa a while back.

somewhat interested in the jalpa

what would that used 3.5 motor/trans go for?

I remember asking the factory back in the late 80's, it was $12K usd for motor/trans. those days are long gone... at that time, I was inquiring for urraco bob out in the "junk yard". that car is now restored in japan. I have some old video footage of the junk yard, but the tape is so old not sure if I can play it anymore.

Heck, someone here would probably pay more than that for the wheels alone! But, up to $6,600 now. I think this might have a sympathetic new owner! Bring her back to life, baby!

If that Jalpa has the original toolkit and owners manual with it, thats worth about 1/2 what car is up to now!

Did you all see last week the Countach toolkit that sold for over $10,000.00??? Its identical to the Jalpa's except for the belts. Absolutely nuts!

I'll be interresting by your tape, is it possible to have copy?

Is it just me or does the interior especially the seats and carpet look as if they have been damaged by water.
