Still have any parts for the Mangusta. I have recently damaged mine. I need a driver door and passenger pop up headlight assembly, right front turn signal. Ben

Very sorry to hear of the damage. Those guys (posters above) are long gone. Well, actually not I guess, as the top one is Jerry at PIM. Have you contacted Steve Liebenow or Wilkinsons? I saw a post by Chuck Melton on the POCA list for you I assume. I wish you great fortune in finding such rare items. If your door glass is undamaged and you end up with an extra, I would be very interested in one, as mine is plexiglass now. |

sorry to hear about the damage on such a rare beast. How bad is the door, maybe consider having a professional reskin it for you?
Larry Stock was working on getting glass made up for the Goose, maybe give him a call. Julian #9178 '81 GT5 #7024 '74L '04 Ultima CanAm '66 KVA MK1 GT40 '75 MGB 50th Anniv. Rdstr |

.... and if worse comes to worst, vendor Larry Stock at PPC-Reno has a complete fiberglas mold for making entire Mangusta bodies. Doors, hood and rear clamshell molds are separate so he can make only those, or the whole car. Not quite stock-steel, but better than missing body panels!

The last that I heard from Ben, he had located some doors and needed to check their condition and if the door glass was intact as his was shattered. I think that his main problem will be the headlight bucket which he may have to have fabbed.

I spoke with Ben this weekend. He says that the repairs are coming along but some parts are hard to come by. He my have to get the door glass custom made.

I got a set of doors and glass from a guy in California. The doors were nearly complete and rust free. The doors were from earlier goose. The headlight bucket was repaired and now works fine. The car is being stripped and repainted yellow. When its done it should be better than new. Ben
