Here we have a Lamborghini LM002 which the seller claims was partially disassembled for a diesel transplant that never happened. Fittingly, the LM002 was a military vehicle that never happened, but did end up a production vehicle for those wanting a really odd toy powered by a Countach V12.
We’re sure you can find the missing parts at NAPA, so this should be an easy fix. Really, though, we wonder if the engine alone isn’t worth a fair portion of the buy it now price, but the total lack of useful ad info leaves a lot of questions unanswered.

I, too, usually start an engine swap by taking off lights and trim and taking the car down to primer (!?).
Yep – the V12 is there.
