Lamborghini Miura P400 S Millechiodi, 1969. A Miura P400 S, chassis number 4302, that left Sant'Agata Bolognese in November 1969, painted Blu Notte (dark blue). Following a series of Italian owners, in 1975 it became the property of Giovanni Sotgiu and Walter Ronchi, two important names in Lamborghini history because, in addition to their work at the "Lamborcar" dealership in Milan, they were the first owners of Bob Wallace's Miura Jota. Precisely in the spirit of recreating the Jota, the two transform the 400 S, damaged in an accident, into something much more racer-like. After a huge investment their Miura, now painted in Verde Scuro (dark green), was finished. It used so many rivets to join the body panels that the name Millechiodi (a thousand nails), came naturally. The car was restored in 2018 and certified by Lamborghini Polo Storico in 2020.

Lamborghini Miura "Millechiodi" (1 of 1). 
The Miura Jota is a well-known one-off in the world of Lamborghini. Sporting aluminum body panels, an upgraded dry-sump V-12 engine, wider wheels, a distinct front splitter, and a heavily retuned suspension, it was chief engineer Bob Wallance's crown jewel. Sadly, after Milanese businessman Walter Ronchi (one of the car's early private owners) sold the car, it was crashed and burned to the ground.In the quest to own yet another Miura Jota, Ronchi commissioned two ex-Lamborghini employees from Sant'Agata to modify a normal 1968 Miura P400 S to Jota specifications in 1975. The result is this car, the "Millechiodi," named after the rivet-heavy construction nature of the Jota and the limited run of Miura SVJs it inspired. The engine was retuned and equipped with a free-flowing exhaust, while Jota-inspired body work was applied. The car was repainted in British Racing Green, and given Plexiglass-covered headlights.

Anywho, let me know your thoughts & if you like these kind of posts.

Automobili Lamborghini’s Polo Storico of started its celebrations of Automobili Lamborghini’s 60th anniversary by taking part in THE ICE motoring event and international concours d’elegance in the beautiful setting of the St. Moritz frozen lake. The Polo Storico-certified one-off Miura P400 S “Millechiodi” participated in the competition that took place against the backdrop of the mountainous Engadine region surrounding the Swiss town. Its famous frozen lake shed its role as a snow polo competition field for the weekend, to become a playground for the world’s most beautiful classic cars. Also present were the Iron Dames drivers from Iron Lynx Motorsport Lab for an ice-driving experience behind the wheel of a Miura P400 SV. https://www.instagram.com/p/CpdUYkzrGYl/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Lamborghini Miura P400 SV 
The Spanish bull referred to as the Miura may have first entered the pop culture lexicon with the publication of Ernest Hemingway's enduring 1926 classic The Sun Also Rises. Hemingway's disaffected expatriates travel to Spain to watch the bullfights, and there they are impressed by the brutal capabilities of the Miura, a creature that is muscular, powerful, lithe, and menacing.Forty years later, Ferruccio Lamborghini introduced his automotive interpretation of the Miura, and in every way the new model lived up to the values ​​of its namesake. Replete with all the grace and power of Pamplona's bulls, the Miura P400 was a revolutionary sports car in every sense, from its transversely positioned mid/rear-mounted V-12 engine, to the sinewy and voluptuous coachwork designed by Bertone's Marcello Gandini.After progressing through the P400 S iteration unveiled at the Geneva Salon in March 1970, the Miura underwent one final development introduced in Geneva a year later. The resulting Miura P400 SV was available by special order only, and the SV (or Spinto Veloce) nomenclature instantly clarified that this was the most mechanically advanced Miura to emerge from Sant' Agata Bolognese.
To accommodate fiercer performance, the chassis was reinforced and the rear suspension was improved with larger wishbones. In combination with the fitting of larger wheels, this resulted in a wider rear track that necessitated sculpting wider rear fenders, adding further muscular character to Gandini’s original design. The proprietary Lamborghini V-12 was further tuned to develop 385 horsepower, a dividend of an additional 15 horsepower over the concurrent P400 S.
Among a combined output of approximately 900 total examples built, the P400 SV was built in a relatively modest quantity of 150 examples, making it the rarest of the three Miura variants. To this day the model remains prized by discerning collectors for its uprated performance and elevated cosmetics, signifiers of the most highly developed and advanced version of Lamborghini’s legendary bull.
