Gaffoglio Family Builds Special Lamborghini for Shaquille O’Neal

shaq-5-3-07.jpgAhhhh, to be rich & famous….  , Gaffoglio Family Metalcrafters, who customizes any car to your specifications, has recently made some modifications to a Lamborghini for basketball legend Shaquille O’Neal.  The modifications, however, were more for necessity than vanity, as it were.

Standing a little over seven feet tall & weighing in at 325 pounds, Shaq is one big man.  And any car is going to be cramped with someone like Shaq in it, so the Gaffoglio Family Metalcrafters had to come in & do some work.

The customizers stretched Shaq’s care 12 inches right through the middle, complete with extended doors, roof & side windows. 

According to GFMI Chief Executive Officer George Gaffoglio, the changes are barely noticeable, “We relied on our aerospace and coachworks divisions to make sure Shaq could fit in the car, but the naked eye could not detect any differences from the original Gallardo.”

Ahh, what a life!
