[DeTomaso] NPC - interesting design story - 240Z

Very nice.

I got my first Z in 1978, consumed by New England rust (the finest), it was replaced by another in 1986. Still have it, carbs need a rebuild though.

Another video to share on the subject, as long as we're here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pIkJu6tYF4U&feature=youtu.be

For many of us, the 240Z was how we got into sports cars. This is a good
story about how it came to be. Lots of pictures of prototypes.
