When I first registrated my first Pantera the Norwegian DOT asked what car it was. There where nothing like this in their register? The Norwegian title says Ford. Nothing more. That was a 1974 Pantera. -------------------------------------------- Den søn 2016-07-03 skrev Scott Couchman via DeTomaso <detomaso@server.detomasolist.com>: Emne: Re: [DeTomaso] Make Designation in California?

Ford did supply the engines, but when Ford legal department got involved after the first cars were imported and tested by the Ford execs, it became clear the relationships/responsibilities were much more than a supplier or distributor. I've seen Pantera color chip samples that were branded Lincoln. Remember, Ford bought the entire company when they acquired all the little companies from Rowan Industries. My 1972 California title lists DeTomaso, but legally, I believe these were Fords.
