Ferruccio Lamborghini: An Average Farmer Who Did Wonders.

in #life7 years ago

When it comes to sports and luxury cars, Lamborghini is one of the first choices of anyone.

To own a Lamborghini car is a dream of many people in this world, including me.

But dreams are never accomplished smoothly.

They can only be achieved with persistence combined with experimentation.

Only a few people know about the interesting story which led to the creation of this incredible car.

Lamborghini car was built by Ferruccio Lamborghini, an Italian industrialist.

Born in an average farmer family, Ferruccio was always inclined towards farming machines and instruments instead of farming itself.

It drove him to study mechanics.

He was never cynical that originating from an average farming family will be an obstacle to achieve his dreams.

After completing his studies, he served in Italian Royal Air Force as a mechanic.

He was apprehended as a war prisoner by the British armies, where he worked on war machines and tanks as a prisoner.

But this was not the end of his story. He didn't give up hope at that point.

Instead, he studied more about machines and engines from the British people.

After the war ended, he was released, he returned to his home and opened his garage in Northern Italy.

Starting from nothing, he used destroyed and surplus military machinery and their parts to make tractors and agricultural equipment.

The country was recovering from war, and there was quite a demand for agricultural instruments and tractors as the focus was on producing maximum yield.

With time and hard work, he reached to a point where he founded his own tractor company, called Lamborghini Trattory.

Being intense about sports cars, he purchased many sports cars, including Ferrari.

He was known as a wizard in mechanical improvisations and fixing engines.

As a tractor manufacturer and a firsthand mechanic, he felt that there was some problem with Ferrari's gear transmission and it can be improved easily.

He proposed his conclusion about the transmission problem to Enzo Ferrari, the owner of Ferrari.

As history is told, Enzo didn't take Ferrucios's suggestion seriously.

Ferruccio then solved that problem himself and resolved the issue.

With time, he started making his own sports cars, and named them Lamborghini, with the fighting bull symbol.

That's how an average farmer guy drafted his name in history with one of the most luxurious cars you can dream about.

Everything is possible once we believe that we can do it. But we can never achieve anything above our imagination.

So always think big, only then you can achieve big things.

Sort:  

I dreamt of having a Lambo from my childhood. But as you have added

"But dreams are never accomplished smoothly."

Hard work will always be the key to success as the story itself showed that. So my friend you too keep on working hard and I will too :)

I hope you achieve everything that you ever dreamt of.
