  1. couple of interesting shots Blk/Blk '99 was owned by a sheik, has real GOLD plated lugs and fasteners for the 3 peice wheels Of the 3, I still own the "FLY" '99 Alpine ED #3 of 12 The Blk/Blk Annv CT won the Peoples Choice Award at the '05 Pebble Beach Concourso
  2. Not yet. I will have to take my time. A side note: the Blk '99 Diablo was owned by a shiek. The Alpine wheels have real gold plated lugs and 3 peice fasteners. I wonder what it'd be like to have stupid money?
  3. For Mang My "ex" '89 Blk/Blk People's Choice Award winner @ the '05 Pebble Beach Concourso Here with his 2 "younger" brothers. Still own the Fly '99 Alpine Ed Diablo #3 of 12
  4. Look closely at the Mangusta. Many immediately say "I see the Pantera's 'lil bro". I don't. It has some Miura-like lines, even the same tail lights. Some pre-BORA features and ideas. Has to be one of the prettiest cars of it's day. DeTomaso isn't well liked amoung the "purists" with the use of FORD iron to run his cars. It's all sour grapes IMVHO. The Mangusta rivals the Miura in looks, is infinitely easier to have engine work done, probably has more reliable power, and is just as rare. The Pantera out Lamborghini'd Lamborghini. Timeless lines. An AMERICAN designer!!! and the same ITL design w/AM lump. Little wonder those spending 2-20 times as much for their cars belittle the DeTomaso marque. This isn't owner-popping shirt buttons as MANG can attest to. I realize a newbie posting such remarks may sound that way. I will slowly intro other iron I have. I'm a guilty consumer
  5. Added a bit of carbon fiber to the GrpIV body work
  6. OK Mike. Since you called me out. few pics from the Churchilldowns Concourso 10/5/08 This car was originally owned by Peter Revson-CanAm,F1 driver that died @ time trials of the S African F1 GP in 1974. A '71 that I recently had restored to be a mate to the insanely restored and detailed '69 Mangusta that Mike convinced me to make it his. The restoration falls short of "his" cars I'm afraid...
