A bright yellow Diablo with a Vet engine. To dark for the no flash cell phone....

Gonna venture a guess that its a kit car seeing that it has a Vette engine. Nice car though. Not sure about that color though, but maybe it's the pics. It reminds me of the OEM Hyundai Tiburon yellow that looks like an extremely faded Canary Yellow.
 
Yea, the color is washed out in the pic form sure. I am not a fan of yellow but it did look good.

It had all the Lamborghini tags all over the door post and such but never saw a year. Didn't talk to anyone about it either. The Vet engine conversion looked like it was bolted to a stock Lam. rear end from the appearance of the real odd bell housing. Very well could be a kit as I do not see them all the time to compare. As it is, if I ever got in one, it would take a crane to get me out again. Narrow seats and a long ways down don't work good with a bad back and overweight....lol
 
WTF would put a vette engine in a Lambo?? That's just crazy.
 
Who in their right mind would rip out the v12 and drop in a chubby v8? Gotta be a drug dealer sampling his own sh&%.
 
What about someone who blew the Lambo engine or bought the carcass after someone else did? A lot cheaper to drop in a chebby SB. I'm sure VW just doesn't offer up crate engines for those things.
 
I am all about "it's your car, do what you want", but that is stretching so thin you need one of them new fangled electron microscopes to see it!

Like taking an original 427 Cobra and installing a Vega 4 cyl.
 
Its a KIT CAR , so its an immitation of the real car but with modifications so you can take a corvette as an donor car. Parts as suspension , engine and trans mounts with ease in this kit car.
I am not fond of this.If you fire up the engine in this particular car , its an anti climax because it doesn't sound like a lambo !! IMHO.
