Ferruccio Lamborghini was a man of many talents. The Italian industrialist was also an accomplished mechanic and winemaker, and had a penchant for acknowledging what potential customers wanted, and providing them with that. Like his tractors. After the Second World War, there was an acute shortage of mechanized farming vehicles in Italy, so Ferruccio gave the people tractors. Lots of them. By the late 50s, he had amassed a small fortune.
