LM002

I stumbled across this at the Satsop festival and thought it ought to be its own post.  Tim Holderman's friend Bob owns it.  It is an LM002, one of the many cars I can recall gazing upon dreamily in the pages of the car magazines I coveted as a kid.  I was seven when these came out and I can remember being blown away by how cool they were.

In short, it is Lamborghini's one and only truck ever made; they made 301 of them, over six years or so.  As you can imagine, they are now coveted by collectors.

They adapted the V12 from the Countach to run in these things.  Dual air filters to deal with the desert sands - the Saudi military ordered a few dozen of these.
