Armin Fischer became the German DeTomaso Concessionaire in '70 by taking the last 52 Mangustas in unfinished states and completing them (some with locally sourced Mercedes parts) as part of the deal, since the brand new Pantera was taking all of Allessandro's time. Fischer also sponsored a few local racers- one was Michael Schumacher. Reportedly, Fischer's warehouse had an ex-Schumacher open wheel racer stored in it. Roland sent me information on his DeTomaso connection, which was featured in the POCA Newsletter some years back.
