>>>I wish I could take credit for it, but stuff like this literally drops into my lap, from a single source--a Spanish guy, friend of Charlie McCall's, named David. He is one of the biggest fanatics of car design and history you'll ever meet, but he has no car of any interest himself. But he spends his life poring through old magazines and books, unearthing treasures every day, and when he finds something of interest to us, he sends it to us.<br>

>>>Yes. I always believed that Jackie was driving one as a 'company car', and that it was Ford's idea to have him seen in it. But that was pure speculation on my part. I suppose it is possible that he simply liked the car and bought one for himself?<br>

I hope everyone reads this article and mentions it as part of their Detomaso Pantera explanation at the next car show.<br>
<br>
Mike, please dig up some more!<br>
