1968 Lamborghini Miura P400 Chassis #3586

Lamborghini’s long and successful adventure in the world of cars began in the early 1960s when Ferruccio Lamborghini, an Emilian entrepreneur who had made a fortune building tractors and boilers, noticed that his Ferrari 250 GT kept running into frequent technical malfunctions with its clutch, which resulted in exorbitant repair expenses. He complained in person to Enzo Ferrari and when the Drake reportedly replied that “The clutch is not the problem. The problem is you don’t know how to drive a Ferrari and you break the clutch.”, Ferruccio saw an opportunity and decided right there and then to make his own cars, so he could be sure work the way he wanted them to.
