Hey Alex, just in time for my birthday ( the 20th ) It's time for a cruise !!
All is well in California, school is great and has kept me busy. With my schedule, I doubt that WAWUZAT will return to Daytona this year. I hope but still don't know. Trying to finish my portfolio for review and got a chance to render the widebody.
Don't worry, while you are away your car is in good hands !
Just kidding. hehehehe. I was going to take a shot with me handing your dad a check and him handing me the keys, but i couldn't do that to you man hehehe.
BTW, just wanted to tell you, you have one of the coolest dad's ever !!
The new project is outstanding.

Is it me or is the front left tire on the right side of the car and the front right one on the left? It seems those are directional tires and they are on the opposite sides they should be on. Look at the pictures you can see the tire threads in.

Yea, if that's a directional tire, it's definetely backwards. the thread is supposed to look like a Christmas tree that's upside down when looking from the front of the car. (easy way to remember)
Hey Alex, Sorry if this question was already asked.....but are you going to be selling a kit based off of this car, or are you keeping it a "one-off"? If so.....how much for a complete kit??
That guy with the crossed arms if my sisters boyfriend. I'm sure he likes the car, but not as much as my sister.
The car will not be offered in kit form, we want to keep it a one-off for now. Who knows what the future may hold in store for it.
kinglikeprince: I can probably get another CD put together if you really want it. I'm not sure everything will fit on one, but I can get them for you. Let me know.
Ok lets ad some photos.... dad sent me some pix of the yellow one. It came together pretty good. I still love WAWUZAT GTR, but the yellow has it own good points. The wheels came in and the final touches are beign put on. It's funny how a car looks 100% better with some wheels and small details. Enjoy.
Going to the LA Auto show today, for press day. I can't wait to see the Lamborghini Reventon. I will post some stuff asap..... The current stuff is more commuter car research, you know with all the green stuff going on, we need to design efficiency too. Not my favorite but, its the job.
Lead designer for the Reventon. After talking to him about the design, it makes sense why it looks the way it does. The idea was thought of on paper but their CAD guy did the majority of the car. It is amazing how fast they did it too (4-5 months).
Some unseen shots of the build...... Found them through CD's and photo books. I figure they will also contribute to the finalization of the build.

I think that is about everything I have to document on the Widebody as far as the build, who knows what is next? Time will tell.
Wow where did you get those pics? Man I've been looking for some race photos. I am surprised how similar the openings are, haha now way. I know some people did not like them, but I had no clue they had a similar things on actual Lambos....Great!
No problem Tony, as soon as I graduate I will do some fiero related stuff, for myself and other that show real interest. I don't plan on wasting time with small projects. Actually as I progress into the upper terms, my design chair told me that we will have the opportunity to do a Lamborghini design sponsored project. I can't wait to sink my teeth into it, but what I am also excited about is that for one of my upper term projects I will make it a priority to redesign he next generation FIERO..
Thanks for the post and if you could give me a link that would be awesome.
Got a chance to clean and drive it a little. The car is great, besides having the wing off and needing some air in the front right it was great. I gave it a once over clean and it should be good for another year of storage. It runs well, no leaks just dust. Anyway here are some pix. I will upload the video of the car tonight.....sty tuned.
I will put up some more interior shots asap. The interior is wrapped in a combination of leather and vinyl, we also used the carbon fiber vinyl material to go with the Kingdom Customs CF headliner and trim pieces. The orange face-plates are the same color as the exterior of the car.

Also if you go to page 3 toward the bottom you can see some more interior detail pictures.
