[DeTomaso] Adjustable upper rear A-arms

[Julian Kift]

Ha, great minds I'm here going through photos of my Ultima and Formula Atlantic...... all with similar heim suspension setups.

Both Pantera's have the adjustable outer heim style rear uppers. There are better ways to do it so the suspension is adjustable on the car and I looked at doing that for a while, but decided it wasn't worth it unless it's a race car that requires setting up differently for each track.

Dennis Quella would agree with you. His answer to Ted's critique of his
design was to simply submit a photo of an Indy Car, with nearly identical
rear upper control arms as the ones he had designed for the Pantera !
