    Just ordered a set from Bobileff. Forgot to ask the price, they look expensive. Can you drive a miura without the air boxes??

    They ARE expensive as beautifully hand-crafted items usually are...... and you know what they say: "If you have to ask the price....." :)

    Yes you can drive Miura without airboxes and our Miuras wish we would! For me, I can actually feel the difference in throttle response, it looks magnificent without the 'boxes, and I dont have a 'pizza-oven' chamber fueled by air-filter combustion for a migrating fire!

    I will bear that in mind next time I go off-roading in my freshly-restored Miura SV :)
    Heck, I only take it out on particularly crisp Southern California sunny days, and that after consulting various weather sites to ensure that I do not encounter sudden gusts of wind en route. LOL.
    I will say this, cruising along at sea-level (perhaps on Pacific Coast Highway) as I try to, those Weber carburettors work as well as they possibly can. Awesome!

    That is 5080 and three years later she is in Southern California and looks like this after Bobileff's refurbishment. FAB.

    Thank you Joe. 5080 do looks fabulous with the gold wheels and sills, more distinctive than silver (for the white color) in my opinion. There was a white SV with white wheels (5060), another one with black wheels (Japan) not so good... It's amazing how these cars change hands so frequently.


    Best,
