[DeTomaso] Engine swaps

[Asa Jay Laughton]

Speaking of three seats....
... and random tidbits...

Jim Demmick (sp) built a custom frame for his son's car seat so it could be mounted in his Pantera, over the console, between the seats.  He claims it worked great.  I imagine that son has probably graduated college now and is asking for the Pantera keys regularly.  ;)

     feasibility of a W12 a few times. Any way just curious. Cheers
