[DeTomaso] Gotti wheel or wheel sections needed

[Charles Engles]

Dear Mike,

 

 

                 Well, it is not the anaesthetic gas  that's the problem, it
the fluoroscope radiation that has affected my mind.

 

                 Yes, you have reminded me of what I thought I understood.
The lineage that I was told by Kinesis was: Gotti begat Etoile who begat
Kinesis.   Perhaps I got the short course and you got the long one!
Anyway,  Dan should email the nice Gotti people in France rather than the
nice Kinesis people in the USA.

 

 

                            Warmest Radioactive Regards, Chuck  Aglow Engles

www.kinesismotorsports.com      I have some Gotti 17 inch wheels that were
allegedly the last set of Gottis sold by PPC.   As I was mounting them on
the car, I noticed that they had some markings or decals on the inside
surface of the wheel center that referred to Kinesis wheels.  Well, the
other Pantera wears 17 inch Kinesis wheels.   It made me curious and I
contacted Kinesis.   IIRC, they gave me the corporate history such that
owners of Gotti sold it or morphed it into Kinesis.   So.....inquiries to
the above website might possibly be helpful to you.  FWIW.



Chuck,

You've been standing too close to the anesthesia again. :>)

You don't have Gotti wheels on your car.  You have Etoile wheels on your
car.

Gotti is alive and well in France.  www.gotti.fr

Etoile, not so much. :>)

Actually, I believe that Gotti was purchased by Etoile, and later they were
both purchased by Ronal, who kept the Gotti name and product line alive, but
ditched Etoile.  So Etoile may have been purchased by Kinesis from Ronal,
who retains control of Gotti, which is what Dan (not you) has on his car.
:>)

Remember, it's the PATIENT that is supposed to be breathing through the mask
with the clear plastic tube, not the doctor! :>) :>) :>)
