If I had the coins and if he was willing to build another, I'd park it right next to my murci. The first lambo and the last. Although I hear that the last murci has rolled of the line. I love the classic lines as well as the modern and I don't know if the murci will be a classic someday. I love it! War Hammer NOV 08, 09:29 PM Astounding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Archie NOV 08, 11:59 PM Thanks for all the nice comments everyone. quote Originally posted by Falcon Fiero: What sorts of reactions has the owner been getting on the street? It looks amazing. Was this a color scheme offered on the original? Yes he picked his colors to try to match color from when the cars were in production. Archie Panda NOV 09, 04:44 AM Wow, you did a fantastic job! I think most of us would appreciate and even order a kit, if you decided to realize one. However, I just have a few remarks regarding some details. Actually, the real “SV” model has wider rear wheel arches than the normal “P400” and the “S”. Considering that the body kit used doesn’t have wider wheel arches, personally I would have made a replica of a “P400” or an “S”. Considering your technical skills, you would have enjoyed the additional challenge of recreating the eyelashes. In this case, you should have installed the rear lights of the “Fiat 850 Spider”. Anyway, considering that you and/or the owner have decided for a replica of the SV model, despite the lack of wider wheel arches, the correct taillights would be those of the “Fiat Dino Coupé”. Using them, the rear of this replica, which already looks great, would simply look perfect. Personally, I find the wheels too modern for a Miura replica. I would replace them by original Campagnolo or Campagnolo replica, as offered for example by Parallel Designs. And just to complete the work of art you’ve already done, chromed window frames, like on the real “SV”, Lambo style shift gate and Lamborghini V12 replica engine cover. The work done on this Fiero really has to be considered a work of art. Thus, why not achieve perfection by adding a few minor details in addition to the Lamborghini, Miura and Bertone badges ... .

Please don't do it, this car is too classy to add something as cheesy as a fake engine cover. Once again great job, this car is by far the best thing to roll out of Archies shop War Hammer NOV 09, 03:30 PM I just looked up several pictures of SVs and only 1 had wider arches in the back. Just an observation. Paul quote Originally posted by Panda: Wow, you did a fantastic job! I think most of us would appreciate and even order a kit, if you decided to realize one.
