Imagine my surprise when I spotted this car at the liquor store in my home town River Falls, WI! Half a million dollar car. I talked to the owner, really nice down to earth guy not a d-bag at all. He told me all about it which was interesting, never talked to a Lambo owner before. Had the gullwing door open so I could see the interior, showed me the engine compartment. I asked him where it can be serviced and he said the closest dealer is in Chicago. He said he used to be into muscle cars and such so he's not a snob. He was admiring my Cadillac Eldorado and asking all about it. I started the conversation by jokingly remarking "I'll race ya".

Wow, what's being done to them and what model is that? That's the smaller one with the V10, right?

Lambos aren't my cup of tea either. Even though I'm sure they're a blast to drive everyone who sees you in it's gonna think you're a d-bag whether you are or not lol. Even though a lot of the classic cars cost as much as a new Lambo now, you're still "one of the guys" when you pull up in one. With a Lambo it's like "where's your private jet?" :rolleyes:

NICE CADDY !!

Thanks! As you can see in the photo there's some surface rust on the right rear quarter... Gonna tackle that this summer. Other than that it's in good shape for it's age and being a late 70's GM from MN. Fortunately my grandpa only drove it in the salt for about 6 years then mostly stored it.

I want to see someone swap the drivetrain from a wrecked lambo into a g-body.
