I know that Dario had electric assist. My problem is I had already had most of the pieces in place. If I had it to do over again, I would look at other options. Having to convert Corvette to narrower belt setup to fit in engine bay was costly.

Did you ever consider installing electric power assist instead of hydraulic power steering? I installed the Prius electric assist in my build, total cost was about $60 and a 4 hour install.

I had multiple iterations when making my door hinges. Did a short video consolidating it into the final design. Should work for fabrication of any Lamborghini hinges. Based on original information from Charley Strickland https://youtu.be/S7VCUmrTQbI

Finished chassis paint. Started on making rear grills. More difficult because I cut it all apart when I shouldn't have and took delivery of my eBay Corvette LS1. https://youtu.be/ffqNcTPCxHc
