Very well done, looks great in that color. :( One of my favorite Lamborghini's.

great car to look at, well done model, but the real car had a number of issues notwithstanding it was a death trap.

I know where there is a Miura with a blown motor that's been sitting for perhaps 20 years now. It was on the cover of 3 or 4 magazines long long story.

The problem is there isn't a boring bar (at least of 10 years ago) in the country that could bore this block because the bellhousing is casted part of the block.

In any event, the guy bought the car in California and drove it back almost all the way home before lossing a cooling hose. He thought he could make it to a service station and kept driving it and overheated it and it stopped running.

It was eventually towed back to Wisconsin and sat in Chris's shop ever since.

He paid $250,000 for the car, they peaked at $1,000,000.00, but not with a blow up motor. So he lost out.

So the saga continues.
