[DeTomaso] Special Orange Cars

[Himes, Terry (397C)]

Ha!  I had a guy come over to me recently at the gas station. He said he loved my Mangusta!  I said, it’s actually a Pantera!
He said “NO… I once owned a Mangusta and THIS is a Mangusta!!”  I pointed to the “Pantera” on the back of the car. With
an angry face he said “I don’t know WHY you could put a Pantera label on a Mangusta!” and stomped off.   True story!

All sorts of people in this world.  Some make you happy when they come over, some… when they leave.  ;-))

    Somehow I suspect he is full of it, but hey, I always love talking to good
    folks out there.  I will admit I was surprised to find there were fiberglass
    Panteras though..

    Wouldn't it be hilarious if he's only a little off on his numbers and
    colors, but his Dad has a Group 4 tucked away....

    Hahahaha!
    
    Did he also tell you all Panteras have fiberglass bodies? I've been told
    that by people who claim to know. 
    
    This guy is totally FOS.....

    cars number painted on the side.  OK, sounds a little odd to me, in that he
    also claimed the all of the Panteras were built for racing, so would expect
    to have the number anyway.
