[DeTomaso] Shel's Garage

[Julian Kift]

It's on the tip of my tongue, begins with a C...
 
I wasn't questioning the Embo bodies of which my 1981 GT5 is one, just the handrake location didn't change to the left side of the console immediately Embo coaches came into production.

As far as I could establish the changeover occurred around late 83, so on the first 275 or so Embo bodied Panteras DT probably used up old stock Ford parts on the e-brake.


I think the last Ford chassis were used up in '77.  Who made them in the period between Vignale and Embo?  I know there was an interim manufacturer but can't remember the name?  Not many were made, under 100 cars I think?

Peter?
