Lamborghini PoloStorico celebrates Miura 50 anniversary at Amelia Island with restored Miura SV 1971 Geneva show car
Sant'Agata Bolognese, – The original #lamborghini #miurasv shown at Geneva motor show in 1971 has been the subject of more than a year's restoration by #lamborghini PoloStorico, and is presented as a finished project at the Amelia Island concours #event (USA) from 10 to 13 March. The #lamborghini #miurasv (Super Veloce), chassis 4846, was the pre-production model for subsequent #miurasv production. Unveiled at the 1971 Geneva motor show on Bertone's stand (while #lamborghini showed its new Countach), the car was truly a one-off, carrying over parts from the previous Miura S and introducing new features that would be seen on later SVs. #lamborghini PoloStorico was appointed a year ago to fully restore chassis 4846 to its perfect original state. The subject of exhaustive research, each detail of the Geneva show car has been respected rather than adopting later production SV parts. Shown in metallic green Verde Metallizata with tan leather, the restoration of 4846 by PoloStorico has included a complete restrip of the chassis and engine. Using photos and other archived historic documentation, every panel on the Miura has been returned to its original lines and angles and, following the original production sheet and records held by Automobili #lamborghini, every component restored or replaced. Expert #lamborghini craftsmanship and original #lamborghini parts have been used throughout, from bodywork to repainting the car in its original color, refurbishing the interior and overhauling the engine. "This is a very important car, not only for its place in history as the Geneva show car and the forerunner of future #miurasv models built, but as the first completed project of #lamborghini PoloStorico," said Enrico Maffeo, Head of PoloStorico. "We are delighted to be able, with the consent of the owner, to show this car for the first time in its perfectly restored state, at the important Amelia Island #event. "This is the year in which the #lamborghini Miura celebrates its fiftieth #anniversary. This car not only illustrates the iconic appeal of the Miura, widely acknowledged as the forerunner of modern super sports models, but is also a perfect example of the expertise available in #lamborghini PoloStorico in providing the most authentic #lamborghini restorations." #lamborghini PoloStorico officially opened in spring 2015, supporting historic models and Lamborghini's #heritage through four main areas: restoration of historic #lamborghini models; archive management; original #lamborghini spare parts for which around 70% of the historic car parc is covered; and official certification of #lamborghini historic cars.
