  1. Ted's Rod Shop found some more bad work by the first builder. He had SLICED the main roll bar almost in half with a grinder and filled it with seam sealer rather than fixing it. The rear firewall welding was a joke so was the welding under the tons of seam sealer goo.. So it all had to get fixed. Also the "trunk" is getting lined in metal.
  2. Here is a couple of good shots showing the transparent nature of the display. My front yard you can see how well the display cuts the glare.. NOT enhanced photos.
  3. Ok heads up (pun intended) here is my home made poor mans non oem heads up color display. Transparent LCD color display built into my sun visor. Before you laugh think about the flir Pathfinder IR camera for night driving. Or Other apps I can pop up there and not look away from the road. https://www.facebook.com/Lamborghini...type=2&theater And Eric at Teds is fast closing in the Urraco sheet metal now that the front suspension is done. The paper templates for the fab are in. Let the welding continue..
  4. I am sure I am going to get blasted for all the mods... I do not care the M in SVM is for Manuel Laureano Rodríguez Sánchez aka Manolete Worlds greatest "Bull Fighter" Killed By Islero the Miura bull when his Espada pierced the small poor sighted Urraco bull who was at the same time gourding Manoletes scrotum and pierced the fighters femoral artery. How did the little bull get so close? Well Manolete was famous for bring the fight to him as he stood in the ring and took on all comers standing his ground.
  5. Nice thing about Art.. Not everyone likes the same thing. I respect the car very much. My urraco was headed for a razor blade factory in China. I would rather see it remade then come back as a cheap ass computer shell... As for the mods.. 1) the rims are not my cup of tea. But you have had three Urracos so you know, and I hope you you respect the mods to get the rims to work. 2) the wheel reminds me of an espada wheel, im cool with that look over the toy cone wheel it came with. 3) color is outstanding 4) seats oh yeah love them. The original urraco seats were a joke made for tiny skinny people who hate life. All in all a nice job... But I am sure I will get blasted for my LP420 SVM Urraco.
  6. Help! Please. (I said please very nicely too) In need of a Gallardo key fob housing for my Urraco build. We installed a R8 steering column the gallardo unit is the exact same but 7 times the price used. The column came with the Audi Key Fob and I want to change out the plastic housing with the Lamborghini Logo case. Its the same as the VW, Audi key fob case. Dont want to spend $200 on a fob just need the proper case. Thanks
  7. I have an unlocked RNSE Nav head unit with bluetooth $500.00 I paid please check with our franchised lamborghini dealer sponsors 800 to update it unlock it and prep it.
  8. The Twice Baked Bull update... 1) We are almost back as a roller. 2) Ted's Rod Shop has entered the car in this years SEMA builder build off competition 3) The plan is to take it on the Italian Stampede in August. 4) facebook "cleansed" all the "fake" likes from our page.. We lost under 500 likes. So yeah they are real. 5) OMF custom rims are almost done. 6) the original headlight buckets were found and now grafted back in the proper place. 7) we have all new OEM NOS tail lights and such for the proper Urraco tail ned. No more 928 want too be. 8) BRM made a one of one watch for the car.. OH yeah too cool 9) Zada-Tech one of one HD LCD Color digital dash is on its way from the UK. So its coming along very quickly now. I am looking for a Gallardo Key fob case. We went with an Audi R8 steering column same column in Gallardo was 7 times the price.. But now need to change out the key fob case to a Lambo case. ANY HELP I will welcome.
  9. No flying mirrors.. Front and rear clips removed, headlights removed, getting ready for the re-re-build. One thing we are making the entire front clip removable so we can build the new front suspension properly.
  10. Concept art by Frank Killam of the re-re-design of the Lp420 SVM Urraco
  11. UPDATE: Frank Killam (BMW Design Works) and an up and coming designer from Pasadena Collage of Design, "Gaston" are taking what was done to the car by Alan Lee, and fixing it.. First to go round butt.. Urraco tail lights have been secured. Next to go the ugly chin Then the Miura headlights back to pop ups. Cleaning up the lines. I will post the artwork soon..

  13. They were all over the Grand Giro! L@@k for car 64 hehehehe..
  14. Bryan has an Ironman suit? I want one is it chrome? All the Best Bryan well done, well done indeed..
  15. Premium being its been checked over at the factory when the trans blew at the Grand Giro. Why is that a plus? Because EVERYTHING was set back to new. the motors dont even get broken in or come in until 30K miles. So with the clear bra, then wrap then decals the paint should be pristine. The car has no extra value except that history and fate had it in Italy to Lamborghini to see how the cars will do with the miles. You are not going to get that in a car with 10K miles and dealer service.
  16. I was there in Italy when the trans failed. Lamborghini took great care of the car putting he new gear box in and going over it at the factory to like new. As I bet it was / is one of the highest miles cars out there that has come to the factory for a freshen up. Plus Motors dont even "come in" until 30K miles so whats the beef here? Not high miles at all... But I agree a black light inspection may prove interesting LOL
  17. I for one had a BLAST.. Now trying to figure how to do the series next season
  18. I reported it to ebay they removed it a scam...
  19. Update.. Danny Huseman's racing has will be un-doing the entire front end of the Lp420 SVM Urraco. And installing a proper front suspension. Ted's Rod Shop is bidding out re-re-doing the front and rear bumpers and going to a better headlight solution. ABD Racing Werks is prepping the motor. In other words most things Alan Lee designed will be chucked... Work is contracted away we go once more..
