That’s because this Riva was built for Mr. Ferruccio Lamborghini.

One V-12 was not enough for him.

This boat actually set a speed record during its time on an Italy lake.

And still one of the top ten ugliest cars of all time. Wouldn't kick one out of the garage though. Still cool.

The long-range shooting world record was broken yet again when a team of spotters and a shooter hit a target at 4.4 miles (7,744 yards) in the Wyoming desert earlier this month using a highly customized .416 Barrett. The marksmanship feat was orchestrated by Scott Austin and Shepard Humphries, who run Nomad Rifleman, a long-range shooting school out of Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

So you can hear it here. This is the restoration video. You hear it run starting at about 17:15.

You beat me to it on that video.
I’ve had this awesome video for several years and it’s a must see!
What a rush this boat must have been in the initial trials.

Turn up the volume at 18:10

We called them “EPN”s (for “Engineering Project Number”).

One of my favorites was for “Project Maria”. This eventually became the Hummer H2.

This is not a transplant. It's a factory built 426 Hemi Station Wagon - the only one ever built.

This is the prototype that Plymouth built for the B029 1968 426 A990 Hemi Barracuda
