1966 Lamborghini 400 GT 'Interim' by Touring

Lamborghini’s first production car, the 350 GT, was the brainchild of two of Italy’s most illustrious auto designers. With an engine designed by Giotto Bizzarrini, fresh from Ferrari, and a chassis engineered by Gianpaolo Dallara, the 350 GT needed only Touring’s superleggera bodywork to be worthy of the charging bull. Production of the 350 GT took place from 1964 to 1966, during which 120 examples were produced. The 400 GT’s development began in 1965, when Lamborghini sought to increase both the power and the interior room of the 350 GT. The initial step was to fit a larger engine to the 350 GT, and thus the ‘Interim’ 400 GT was born.
