I'm guessing that was the first phase of the Lamborghini Mura? The vents behind the windows are very similar.

Those early Bertone designs are such neat "design statements"...truly the shape of things to come for the era. H-P, isn't is Miura? Neat cars!!!

Do a GIS for "1963 Testudo prototype" and this is what you get:

Bertone did the Miura, the prototype is by Bertone. I don't recall Bertone being involved in the 928 project.
Randy, what did you start now?

Not only was the Miura mid engines but it was the first sideways mounted 12cylinder. Truth be told I see that first Bertone design in both our 928's and the Miura.
