A 1968 Lamborghini 400 GT 2+2, chassis 01321, is one of only 247 examples built between 1966 and 1968, featuring Touring coachwork, a 3,929cc four-cam V12 producing 320bhp, and a five-speed Lamborghini gearbox. Originally delivered to the United States on 22 January 1968, it passed through Dutch dealer The Gallery Aaldering before entering a period of static display. Subsequently restored and refinished in Azzurro Fiat over natural tan leather, the car has since been mechanically recommissioned for road use.
