     A  A Asking price is an eye-watering $349K!A  Maybe it could fetch
     that in
     A  A Europe, but I doubt we'll see that here anytime soon.
     A  A This is actually a spectacular car; I got to drive it a couple
     of times
     A  A (when it had NO brakes, a detail Larry forgot to share with me
     before I
     A  A agreed to ferry it to the Reno Fun Rally car show for him!)A
     It took
     A  A some doing but eventually he tracked the problem down to a
     worn-out
     A  A master cylinder and the brakes were fixed.
     A  A 8MA508 is the fourth Mangusta built and has a number of unique
     A  A features, including an original Shelby-spec solid-lifter 289
     engine,
     A  A steel instead of aluminum engine hatches, and different front
     turn
     A  A signals.
     A  A It was restored by Wilkinson before originality was coveted in

     there.
