Paolo Stanzani

[a007apl]

"Stanzani was one of the pioneers of Automobili Lamborghini. He was in Ferruccio's original team in 1963, and the founder describes him like this: "Stanzani (...) was a great engineer, (...) but one who watched the pennies. He shaved always expertly - wherever he could shave". Stanzani contributed greatly in the engineering of the Miura, and was in charge of the team that developed the Countach."

Stanzani is really a fantastic engineer and a gorgeous person.

Unlukily I didn't meet him personally, but I have a friend who worked with him:

his name is Paolo Paratelli, the master of Lamborghini leather interiors. He worked in Lamborghini from the Miura to the Countach 25th Anniversary!

Sometimes I go to visit him, so I can photograph Miuras and Countach during restauration!

Ciao!
