Reply to "DeTomaso original blue prints"

For those who have an early version of the Pantera Tech Service Bulletins, the back two pages (Section 47-11-04) has an engineering dwg of the '71- 75 front and rear suspensions, and on the next page, various drawings of the car's body/chassis from different views. The dwgs shown have extremely thin lines, and for those used to reading such prints, you'll find that Italian engineers apparently didn't subscribe to SAE directions for doing such dwgs. There are numerous critical dimensions not 'properly' referenced, imaginary points shown and a host of other confusing features. Nevertheless, they do represent the car; just don't try building parts to those prints. Oh, and because of the very thin lines, the dwgs don't reproduce; this may be why later reproductions of the original TSBs left this section out.
