[DeTomaso] Bricklin tail lights

[Barry Seib]

The tail lights are the same model as the Ford program Panteras. I bought a
pair from the guy clearing the Bricklin factory stuff.
Bricklin was manufactured in New Brunswick,CANADA by Malcolm Bricklin. No
link to GM. Just bought power trains from FORD.
2,854 cars were built before the company went into receivership, owing the
New Brunswick government $23 million.
All the 75-76 models were automatics with 351W engines. Maybe 2V too. I
don't recall. I always viewed them as phony posers and was sort of ashamed
that they were made in Canada.
Pretty disappointing cars compared to a Pantera.

I missed that program.  I don't know why but I thought Bricklin was a GM
product???
