Perfect Lamborghini 350 GT Takes To The Track After One-Year Full Restoration

What could possibly top out a new Huracan for a Lamborghini enthusiast?

Well, a classic 350 GT would make for a pretty good candidate in the vision of its current owner, who wanted his 1964 machine to look and drive just like when it left the assembly lines, 52 years ago.

With this in mind, he turned to Lamborghini PoloStorico, who spent 1,150 special hours’ work on the body, and another 780 hours on the mechanical and electrical functions of the car, during which only Lamborghini Original Spare Parts were used.

Having finished the job, the Italians met with the enthusiastic owner on the Autodromo di Modena, which was especially reserved for the occasion. Putting their money where their mouth is, those behind the project drove it for 80 “perfect kilometers”, as the automaker explains, and in order to further highlight the emotional event, the car’s original owner was invited at the track.

Chassis #0121 out of the 15 350 GT models produced by Automobili Lamborghini benefited from the Italian craftsmanship, which included the application of 22 layers of paint, with wet sanding by hand in between each layer, and the restoration of the original rims that have been wrapped in new Pirelli Cinturato 205/15 tires. As a final touch, the factory radio has been kept inside its time-capsule design that could make petrol heads sigh.
