Chasing Classic Cars Comes to Lamborghini Houston

On Wednesday, May 15th, Wayne Carini arrived with our freshly restored 1973 Ferrari Daytona Spyder to film the final segments of his Chasing Classic Cars episode on our car.  First off, let me just say Wayne is an incredibly nice guy, extremely knowledgeable, and just loves cars as much (or more!) as we do.  Todd, Kelly, and the rest of our staff were all excited to see this car unloaded.  Wayne took our original Daytona Spyder which had previously been repainted in Rosso Corsa Red and refinished it to its original color of Verde Pino (believe to be 1 of just 2 built in that color).  The interior was completely refinished in new, imported leather hides in a tobacco (I describe it as tan with a sun tan) with black Daytona seat straps and a new mouse-hair dash.  The finest details were addressed down to exactly which knock-off wheel hubs it should have for that year, its tool kit components, engine compartment decals, and even exactly where the horns are mounted.  This car is absolutely stunning.  In fact, part of this car's journey, as you'll see in the show, included a highly scrutinizing concours judging; however, you'll have to see the show to see how it scored!  All in all, it was a really good day!!...and of course, as soon as we know when this episode of Chasing Classic Cars will air, we'll let you know!

This original Ferrari Daytona Spyder (not a "cut car") is here at Lamborghini Houston for viewing and is available as of this writing.
