Miuras at Concorso 2016

I'm seeing some interesting variations there. Look at the difference between the green and blue cars in the front on shots for example. What's the story with the green cars nose?

 

No two are exactly the same.

 

All these cars are hand crafted, hand built, and new cars had variances back in the 60's, as they do today.

Forgive me, but that's a lot more than a variance.

fun car to drive on the curves.

 

Agreed.

Its worth remembering that all Miura P400 & P400S bodies were originally shaped around the same wooden template and subjected to an assembly-line process ensuring that the basic original shape of the cars was the same at the point of production.

Any variances were restricted to the assortment of different specifications the cars received.

You can be sure that the variations we see in the front-end of some Miuras today, has occurred post-production, for one reason or another.

Here below is the Bertone SpA assembly line at the Grugliaco plant.

At Sant Agata, the Miuras were subjected to a second assembly-line process, for the installation of running gear etc.

If you study in-period images of the car's production and completed cars at new, you can only conclude that the body-shapes were the same.
