Reply to "Denis C and the "new" DeTomaso"

OK here we go. As some of you know I was drawn( or thrust Wink) back into the world of DeTomaso last summer quite by accident. As a teenager the Pantera was my 'EXOTIC' as other cars were simply fantasies. Then in 1983 I was working in Markham and was offered a Countach at a good price but the owner flatly discouraged me from buying it as being too temperemanta(?) and couldn't be parked anywhere but your own garage. So I evolved in the new car market and the HotRod world. Fast forward to 92 and the Mustang passion kicked-in, then by accident in '95 i was introduced to 1035 an early red pushbutton cat. I called Hall's and again I was told to walk away because it being a pre-export car it would have many issues. Then in 98 another cat was available in Sherbrooke, it was in pieces and it needed to go fast the price was right but I wasn't fast enough. Then last summer Here I am working quietly in my garage and a gentleman comes up to the door and asks what are those motors. There 429SCJ and a 429CJ. WOW he says my boss has a Pantera. Good for him I said and he left, end of conversation.
