Correct, that's in the old museum in Cento, now all is in Funo di Argelato, in the new Ferucio Lamborghini Museum.
It was the first of the two running rejected prototypes. There was an earlier full scale proposal that didn’t wasn’t built into a runner.

Some Urraco prototypes and Urraco Bob are in Tonino’s museum Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Maybe a U.Bob look-a-like - I was not impressed with Tonino’s museum, personally I thought many displays were tasteless, they has modded cars, Puma vw kit cars all together. The “restored” cars like the islero were painted by beginners - it hurt the eyes. The best part of the museum was the parking lot Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Notice? That's a lot of flame. What could the owner have done to that motor? They don't usually do that. Yes.....I'd like my car to do that
Hello, does anyone have maybe a photo of an Urraco or Espada in the following color: Blue Metallic PPG Italver Code 2.463.643 Kind regards Zdenek

Last year I saw this Urraco at Le Mans Classic. Image Unavailable, Please Login It is now for sale in France by Atelier46 (no affiliation): https://www.atelier46.fr/lamborghiniurraco-atelier46 I'm trying to identify the chassis number. In the Atelier46 picture below it shows *168*. Is that the Bertone body number, or the last three digits of the chassis number? What would be the complete chassis number?

Does anyone have colored photos of the Uracco when it was being introduced at shows? Dr Gebhard Miura https://www.hagerty.com/media/automotive-history/the-first-lamborghini-miura-hid-in-plain-sight-for-decades/ has gotten me interested to know if my Uracco, which is a pre-production prototype, was used on tour and repainted in between shows as the car was painted 3-4 different colors prior to being imported to the US from Italy in the early 80's. Why would a 10yr old car be painted 3-4 times different colors. Perhaps painted different colors for shows? Or was the first owner nuts and painted the car from its original order of green, then a different green, to blue, then possibly yellow (?), to red? The current red certainly looks like it was factory painted. Also, the visible colors are factory colors. It very well makes sense, after reading how the factory handled Dr Gebhards Miura, that this car could have been used on the show tour, in different colors, and when done they tack welded VIN plate and other stuff and delivered it in Italy as it is production #4, has the prototype 20 spoke wheels, 3 roof vents and more.
Peter, its known that your car was painted and sold in verde medio, of course it could be that it was used in other colors also for shows. I can identify at least a kind of Tahiti blue in addition on your pictures, could you identify also another - perhaps yellow or is this primer? That was quite common that time - eg. Silhouette 40000 was first red, then painted white (brochure car) and finally sold again in red.
Agreed, left the factory Verde Medio. You and another source confirm that today and years ago. I think I see Verde Ithaca in the photos. I remember seeing a larger spot of the Ithaca on the car. When time allows, I will search for it. On a larger computer screen there looks like 2 very different Verdes
I think that might be a primer as well or the tahiti blu on a primer. Verde Ithaca was only with the Murci, at that time they new only the Miura Lime Green (verde chiaro) and verde metalizzato in addition to verde medio. I need to dig in the old magazines and show pictures, since as mentioned it was quite normal that the same car got repainted for the next show.
