Pictures are very informative.

Those are the same brake calipers as the Cobra race calipers, aluminum or is that silver cad on iron?

What are the tubes I'm looking at going to the steering rack? Is this a power rack?

There must be 100# of undercoating on the chassis? Was detomaso in the paving business too?

The amount of work to do on a basket case would keep one of these cars off the road for 20 years? Yikes! This is a very labor intensive car.

It would cost a couple of hundred thousand to build it today. It cost $11,000 + back then with paying the workers $7 an hour and the quality of workmanship is very, very high.

This is not Detroit production line work. Amazing. Well maybe not on the dimple welds on the front fenders though? I see them. I wouldn't be happy with that as the first new buyer.

Thanks for posting, Enjoying seeing it naked.
