[DeTomaso] GT-5 parts - where to find a frog eye head light bucket and handbrake add-on calipers?

[Julian Kift]

My GT5 is #9178 and uses the early style, I checked my photo bank and up to #9195 has the early style whereas the next VIN I have an interior photo of is #9203 and is using the later style.

Like all things De Tomaso not all GT5 cars are equal, as best I can tell the switch to the later style handbrake took place somewhere around VIN# 9200, earlier 9000 series cars retain the earlier style set up and handbrake lever location.Good point!  The De Tomaso parts book says, "From #9170" uses the later style.  Jesper--if your car is below #9170, it will make the job of finding used parts *much* easier.What, exactly, do you need?Wilkinson carries all the necessary bits (brackets etc.) if you need something unusual:http://www.panterasbywilkinson.com/webpages/catalog/ill4a.htmlNote that there are three pages of illustrations, starting here.Mike**************Stay up to date on the latest news - from sports scores to stocks and so much more.
