137,000 documented miles including service/maintenance records, since new, owner’s/SPICA manuals and 99% of all receipts since 1986.
I have owned the car since August of 1986 and I am the third owner. The car was all original including rare dealer-installed AC when I purchased it with 30,550 miles. The smog pump and plumbing were removed prior to my purchasing the car. The spider was originally purchased by a doctor in Miami and was a weekend car for six years. He moved to Orlando and sold it to the second owner who had it for two years and put several thousand miles on it.
The spider was my main driver until 1992 and I put approximately 12,000 miles per year on the car during that time. From 1992 until 2018, the car has been driven approximately 2,000 miles per year and the mileage is documented via repair orders, etc. Repairs from 1986 to 1992 included removal of the original exhaust/cat system and replaced with a pre-1975 system (I have the original 1978 manifold). Other repairs included a rebuilt front and rear suspension including IAP pre-1975 springs (lowered), Koni red shocks, xr700 electronic ignition, new fuel pump and many other documented repairs.
In 1996 I had the car repainted in the original Sunflower Yellow (AR127) color (PPG). I removed all exterior hardware/bumpers, etc. and it was stripped to bare metal. All dents, dings and rust were removed including replacement of the outer rocker panels with Alfa Romeo OEM panels. I added Panasport wheels (the original Turbina rims are in storage), reupholstered the seats in black leather with a kit from World Upholstery, installed lightweight Alfa Heaven fiberglass replacement bumpers on shortened mounts, had custom door panels made and added a dash cap.
By early 2002, the car had picked up several dents, dings, and road rash and I was not happy with the quality of the 1996 paint job so I decided to have the car repainted again. I removed the original carpet and seats along with all exterior hardware (again). Ultimate Motors (Lamborghini dealership - Longwood, FL) repainted it in its original color using ICI paint. I had the windshield replaced (original was delaminating) and I recarpeted the interior in gray German feintuft wool (World Upholstery) with sound deadener under the carpet. The rear panel behind the seats was made to look like later spiders with a parcel shelf. Many other repairs/parts not listed above are included in the receipts.
