[DeTomaso] GT5-S Conversion

[Julian Kift]

That does remind me that there was a guy in the LA area called Giuliano Belle that did a conversion by hand, I think it was Pat Holleran's (Sp?) blue car, not strictly a GT5-S but close. I think that car is still for sale too. Giuliano was an old Italian  (as the name might suggest) hands on panel beater guy. I pulled an e-mail out of my archives from 2006 with photos and contact and will send to Ron.
