[DeTomaso] Mangusta on eBay

When I was living in LA (Hacienda Heights, actually, about 20m east of LA),
in about '86, I was just over the hill from Whittier, CA.  I was driving
down Whittier Blvd one afternoon, and as I passed this typically seedy
looking SoCal used car lot, I noticed something unusual under the "covered"
section of the inventory.  It was a 4-headlight 'Goose, and as I remember,
looked to be in decent shape, although I didn't bother to ask anyone about
it.  At the time, I was just impressed with myself that I knew what it was.
'Would be interesting to know what they were asking for it at the time . . .
Oh well.

Back in the early '80s, my dad had an opportunity to buy a '69 'Goose for
(if memory serves) $8,500. He didn't pop for it, as a few months earlier, he
took the money set aside to buy new drapes for the house and purchased a
couple 10" Campis and a set of Goodyear Blue Streaks to run at Riverside.
With my mom still livid of having to live with tattered window dressings, he
erred on the side of peace in the household (besides, buying the 'Goose
would have meant my mon's car would have to live outside the garage), and
the car went to another home. Had he (or any of us for that matter) bought
the car, it would have been an incredible investment. I need to get working
on a time machine!
