This YouTuber purchased a crashed Lamborghini Murciélago for a very cheap price, before making a big discovery.
They acquired the car with the aim of preparing it for the SEMA show.
With a month and a half to go and a crashed car on his hands, there was no time to spare.
But what would be found as he took a closer look at this Lambo?

What condition was this Lamborghini Murciélago in?
As you might expect, being in a crash did some damage to this car’s body per YouTuber B is for Build.
The roof had taken some hits and the side panels were in need of significant repair and restoration.
But it could always be much worse – like this wrecked Ferrari 812.
But the car also contained something really cool – a unique V12 engine in the rear hatch.
Host, Chris, expressed excitement about showing it off by fixing up the carbon fiber hatch.
“Isn’t that a much better of the engine? I love it!” he told his viewers.
“From each angle, you can see the Lamborghini V12ness.”
Cutting out two pieces that covered the engine, he made a replacement mold out of plexiglass.
The car is to take on a cyberpunk theme, so lights will surround the modified hatch.
Will the car be ready for SEMA?
The SEMA show takes place in Las Vegas between 5 and 8 November 2024.
It’s set to be a trade show like no other.
With that deadline in mind, the pressure is on for Chris to get the job done.
Throughout the video, he repeatedly mentions how much work needs to get through, including repairing damage from the crash and creating a perfect custom fit through the 3D printer.
Restorations are a tough thing to take on.
