Looksmart Announces Lamborghini Urraco Rally Bob Wallace 1:18

Looksmart expands their classic Lamborghini series with their version of the 1:18 Lamborghini Urraco Rally Bob Wallace edition.  Though we admit a cool and classic car, the model was well represented in scale by Kyosho a few years back.  Plus it’s diecast with opening parts.  If interested our friends at Toronto Motorsports still have some in stock!

About the Bob Wallance edition…  “Bob Wallace in 1973 converted an Urraco into a real ‘hot rod’. He used the number ‘3’ of the early ‘pre-series’ P250’s from 1971 as a base, this fact is recognizable by the far-back position of the front pop-up headlamps. The bright orange finished Lamborghini was powered by a special 3.0-Liter engine using a 4-valve/cylinder configuration with dry-sump lubrication, coupled to a six-speed gearbox all this added up to a power output of more than 310 Bhp.

Later sources stated this 4-valve engine was only briefly installed in the car, and was soon replaced by a tuned two-valve 3.0-Liter engine from the P300. This special Urraco also featured a roll-over cage, while all the unnecessary items were stripped from the interior to gain weight, the entire rear seat was removed and a special fuel tank was installed in this space.”
