[DeTomaso] Post 9000 car

[The DeTomaso Registry Guy]

A car worth reviewing has been added to the registry:

It has the post-Ford inner fenders in the engine bay, and the wide license
plate valiance of the post 9000-ish

series cars, along with Euro (Amber) tail light lenses.  Yea, it is also
"Chevy" powered.

 

This style of California license plate began in 1980, and was replaced with
a different type in 1982, so the car

was registered in California at the earlier end of that date range.

 

I hope to match more photos in the future.  Until then.

 

Does anyone know this car?   It is probably out of Southern California.

 

Compare to:

9033.asp

 

Which has the square-edge engine bay fenders, but the narrow license plate
valiance.

 

So I would suspect this car to have a VIN later than 9033.

 

Anyone?
