It is a  shame that the car was so poorly designed.
The proportions were great, but  the design theme choice and it's execution 
showed that the design was done  by someone that was very inexperienced, for 
a 
client that lacked the  knowledge and design appreciation to make a good 
choice. 
They thought it  would be easy.

DeTomaso decided to save money with several cars that he  directed himself. 
All were very poor.

It would be interesting to  know who did the design but I doubt that they 
will 
step up to claim the  credit.

In these cases often the company principles will hire someone  that is very 
inexperienced and then use that persons skill to direct their  own concept, 
as 
poor as it may be. There will be no one involved to argue  with them about 
the 
design quality.
 
 
Dick,
     Marcello Gandini designed the "Bigua". Look at the  signature rear wheel 
opening.
