[DeTomaso] Dennis A vidio

[Asa Jay Laughton]

Um... yea.  Dennis' car -did- have magnesium wheels on it as I recall 
but he'd have to confirm that.  The wheels and tires you see as it's 
being loaded on the trailer are loaners, put on the car to get it on the 
trailer.  As I recall, Larry Stock took it to Shelby in Las Vegas until 
Dennis picked it up for restoration.

Go to 2:11 and take a look at the driver's side front wheel, might be a 
Campy (I'll have to ask him again).  The entire car was engulfed at one 
one point, no wheel got away unscathed.

   About the third video down the page.
   I re-watched it after 14 years and noticed the firemen were probably
   thinking the engine was forward the way they were trying to pry open
   the hood bonnet from the front!
   Originally I thought it was difficult to extinguishA due to Magnesium
   Campy's but they were just after market alloys.
   And surprisingly the passenger side wheels/tires look like they
   survivedA unscathed!
   FortunatelyA Dennis walked away to live another day.
   Still tough to watch...
