Brad Automobiliac had sent me a video with a weird, fat looking Blue Detomaso Mangusta running laps….and that blue Mangusta has been stuck in my head for a couple of weeks now.
But i have found photos of it! At least I believe it is the same one….it is absolutely BRUTAL looking.
one of the most evil, rare, influential, and fascinating supercars ever….the DeTomaso Mangusta (1966-1971)
401 Mangustas were built, about 200 of the european version, with 4 headlamps and Ford 289 Cu.In. engine, and the rest are USA version, with 2 “pop up” headlamps and less powerful Ford 302 engines. One car was built with Chevrolet engine. There are reported to be fewer than 120 left in existence, according to the 2 available registry databases.
