> 
> Not sure who was talking but the "expert" said that Gian Paolo Dallara designed the car and approached Ford to put a 351 in it.  No mention of Detomaso at all.   Then went on to say the car was a great car when it ran BUT it was difficult to maintain and was prone to "fall apart".   These mechanical failings was cited why Ford pulled the plug on the car, never mentioning the gas crisis or impending safety regulations that would have required major redesign.
