Reply to "~8ma800 Mangusta at Beverly Hills car club"

Oh, Steve, good catch on the headlight lever---I had seen the glimmer of the green cable in the trunk area, that green -is- the original color used for the 2 headlight lever, it has the marker lights of a US car and so likely in the 8ma900 range.  Note also, some customization around the electric can mounting in front of the radiator (esp, a cross member cut off and then reboxed...). But with the auto transmission there holding the car to gravity, and a Ford engine with manifolds pointed the wrong way (guess someone didn't want to advertise the car as "no engine/trans ) , missing front struts, pedal box gone...

I'd expect the single hardest thing to find for this car (other than the time to make it whole) is probably the passenger door...and "find" is probably not the word, its probably "fabricate" coming someone's way.

...hmm, must be a good story with the car. Judging from the battery, whatever happened to the car was very long ago. I love looking at BHCC (and Gullwing on the east coast) ads, without them these cars would be stuck in peoples garages forever, I think...Lee
