From Autoblog...

The SEMA Show in Las Vegas is huge, which is the only explanation we can muster for why we didn't see the Tractorri Lamborghini Mustang there ourselves. Built by John Haugh from Cleveland, OH (w00t!), the car you see is basically a 520-hp mid-engine, all-wheel-drive Lamborghini Gallardo wearing the heavily modified body panels of a Ford Mustang. Out back the rear taillamps of the Gallardo have been incorporated along with a gaping grate through which one can view the Lamborghini hardware. The interior is also mostly Lamborghini, though the door panels obviously come from the Ford.

We know, some of you are asking why anyone would embark on such a project, but why sweat the details when there's a freakin' mid-engine, all-wheel-drive Mustang staring back at you? Just count your lucky stars that there are people out there who will build something like a Mustang-bodied Lamborghini for the rest of us to enjoy. Oh, and we extend an open offer to buy Mr. Haugh a beer at The Winking Lizard in Lakewood so he can show us this insane coupe in person.

Guess they did just to say they did. I'm sure with the conversions, he could've bought a GT500 .

People have a lot of money to waste. Someone could've went home with a F430,a Gallardo,heck even a used CGT. But no, they had to display this at SEMA.a ''Mustang Gallardo''

I think if they went a bit less Lambo it would probably be OK.

It's kind of cool actually ...

But who would have thought that a Mustang and a Lamborghini would mix like that!

One thing I do love about it: The front end.

I love how the headlights are recessed in, I love the bottom of the bumper and how low it all sits to the ground. If that front end was on a regular Mustang, it would be a hot car.

As for the rest of it, you just have to ask: Why?

What the hell is up with Mustang owners putting wide ass stripes in the cars. Another inch on each stripe and it might as well be a two-tone paint job.
