Classic Ish
In 1968 famed Italian design studio Bertone shocked the automotive world, including Lamborghini's founder, with the introduction of the 1968 Bertone's Lamborghini Miura P400 roadster. Based off the classic Lamborghini Miura and featuring the same transversely mounted v12 engine displayed under glass, the car made its car show rounds before eventually being sold to the International Lead Zinc organization. The company chromed or zinced pretty much every part they could and painted the car green. From there the car went from collector to collector and several museums before landing in the hands of its current owner, who commissioned legendary lambo builder Gary Bolileff to completely restore its to its original state. Only 475 p400 were manufactured between 1966 and 1970, and typically exchange hands between 300k-500k. I wouldn't even guess what this one is worth.
