Type in "Miura" in the search box and see how many hits you get.  It's in the upper RH corner of the page.

Hi. I’m a new member on this forum but not new to the homebuilt car hobby.  I’m nearing completion on a home/scratch built 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO that has a build diary posted here:
 
GTO build thread

I’m in the investigative phase for another car project and am seeking out information from wherever possible.  I’m looking into scratch building a Lamborghini Miura SV.  I see a lot of information about projects on other Lamborghini models but not the Miura.  So some initial questions I’m trying to answer:

* Has anyone built a Miura and is there a build diary posted anywhere?
* Does anyone have detailed Miura chassis plans with detailed measurements, etc?
* Has anyone figured out and built a transverse engine/trans/diff combo that’s in the 400 hp range?  V12 preferred but V8 will also work.
* Has anyone figured out what non-Miura donor parts can be used for such a project?  For example, is there a windshield or side window glass from a mass production vehicle that is close enough in shape to use in a scratch built Miura?
* Does anyone have a Miura body buck or body panel templates that could be used to confirm shape for new aluminum panels?  I have the tooling and skills to shape body panels but don’t currently have the Miura shape information other than pictures.This will be a one off project for me as I have no ambitions to “go into the kit car business”.  Given this, I’m hoping to find some knowledgeable people who are willing to freely share information that would make this project feasible to do.

Thanks in advance.
