Old SCHOOL!
Well, after to much money and half a decade..ITS DONE!!!
Thanks to Steve at Driven Exotics - The Lamborghini Specialists for a great nut and bolt total frame of retoration..it is better then when it left the factory!
My 1976 Lp400 Periscopa..went down today to Cali, took it for it's final shake down run. Nothing like doing 120MPH plus south down the 101 in a TRUE Lamborghini, no seat belts, no air bags, no cats, no computers, just the pure joy of a 4 liter carb car winding up like it should and thin tires with NO WING rowing thorugh the gears!
Ready to take first place at any show...a few I-phone shots till I get it home for a proper photo shot.
Put her on a truck and she is on the way home to me in Seattle tonight.

WOW a true dream machine. Car is two years older than I am LOL. I can only dream of what it must sound like at full boil pulling to redline.

Thanks...but no thanks..
Have had a few E-mails from around the world with offers on the car..
As much as I appreciate it, the high offers of $575,000.00 is just not worth selling what I consider my child now..I watched it to long to get to perfect..I think I need to watch it grow up and get old with me...
