Being a Mustang enthusiast means holding your resolve through thick and thin. Sometimes, it pays off. As enthusiasts, we were delighted to see the Tractorri Lamborghini Mustang at SEMA 2007. That’s right—“Lamborghini” and “Mustang” just appeared in the same sentence, dear readers. What's more, I think the two words have a little ring to them when spoken back-to-back-- but I doubt it's something we should ever expect to get used to.
The Italian stallion’s beauty is less an issue of practicality and more a great example of sheer enthusiasm at its finest. The car was done by one John Haugh from Cleveland, Ohio, who, it appears, took a 520 horsepower, mid-engine V-10 Lamborghini Gallardo and decked out its exterior with Mustang body panels. Instead of simply slapping several kits together, Haugh’s artistic vision of this unlikely collaboration is, itself, a nod to Italian exoticism.
Take a look at its rear end, and you’ll find the Gallardo taillamps complimenting the massive honeycomb mesh venting, giving spectators a look into the Lambo hardware. Lamborghini brake calipers? Really?
Haugh’s flawless work on the exterior only continued within, as he combined the Lamborghini dash assembly and premium seating with the Mustang door panels. Not one inch of the Tractorri Lamborghini Mustang was left untouched.
According to TheMustangNews, Haugh is an Italian car enthusiast whose collection of Ferraris and Lamborghinis has certainly never seen the likes of the Tractorri. He claims the masterpiece took him “just under a year” to complete and he drives it “regularly.” We only wished our daily drivers looked this sweet! Thanks to John Haugh for making such a contribution to the Mustang community!
