Default New website coming for DIY and not gold chain silk wearing car owners...LOL!

I have decided to put up a site that will show and gather information on Lambo's for the DIY's like myself. I will document and have pictures of things that can be done. I am determined not to let this car kick my ass. The site will be www.fixmylambo.com

It will not be a chat room type enviroment because we have too many of those anyways and what I have found in most of these chat rooms you have a handful of people who are helpful and then you have the ones who ask what should I wear when I drive my lambo and will the wind mess up my hair...type threads. I'm a beer drinking grease monkey low budget lambo owner who likes to work on his own car due to the fact that no one is going to take better car of your car than you. I am not a collector so if there is a part that works better than the OEM, I am all for it.

So if you're a beer drinking...own more than 10 wrenches kind of guy or women, then this site will be for you to learn how to wrench on your own car. I hope to get a lot of people who want to contribute with their knowledge of these cars and remember..pictures are the best!

I plan on showing step by step on an engine being pulled..to just about everyting from complex to simple on these cars. I am not claiming to be an expert "yet" on these cars...but I will tell you this, I will ask questions til I am blue in the face or someone bans me! LOL!

It will be a bit before the site is up, but I am already gathering data and pictures....Just because we have these cars doesn't mean we need to be Lambo-taxed on them!

Adam been doing Lambo work for over 25 years. I sell parts at real prices.
I have crossed just about every part for the Countach, and maintain a Countach parts stock, I have 3 at this time. Have owned, with 1 exception, the Islero, every REAL V12 Lamborghini car made. REAL Lamborghini cars are the 350GT through the Countach. After that the cars became a corporate deal, not Lamborghini himself making the decision. No Offense to the Diablo and later cars, just not my cup of tea, though I can supply parts for them.
I will help any time I can, with info or parts.

Cool!

I will contact you...I am not looking to make money on this site, but it would be nice to have a vendor who sells parts for these cars instead of just sells cars....nothing wrong with selling the cars...but I myself want to understand what I have and not have to fork out a ton of money...like in the Viper world, we called it Viper -tax...but in the Lambo world...it's 10 times worse..

Sounds good. Never can have too much information. Thanks for using your car as the guinea pig. Asking relative questions, and contributing info can never get you banned it's very welcome
