[DeTomaso] Qvale Mangusta/Bigua

[LS]

I think the look of the car is okay...not beautiful but interesting. 

The very highly engineered chassis must be sensational to drive and the interior looks to be well trimmed in leather.

I'm thinking it could be a cool weekend driver at the right price (and in the right color).

Chuck, was the fellow Pantera owner who inspected it looking at the oil filter?? 

It has the same amount of Mustang in it as an Iso Grifo...which is very little thankfully!

Dear Lashdeep,


                 A quick superficial answer:

                 Never had one.  I recall their odd styling very well. 
A fellow Pantera owner inspected one and declared that it was 
essentially a Mustang that had been rebodied and given a slightly 
different interior.   I am sure that Mike Drew has a more detailed 
review.  I have never seen one at a Fun Rally nor can I recall of an 
owner on this Forum.


                                 Warmest regards,  Chuck Engles
