Reply to "Octane article on De Tomaso demise"

Thanks for posting. Google alerts missed this one!

The feeling I get is that everything in Italy operates in a haze of misinformation. Did anyone get a clear understanding of de Tomaso’s current status? The article seems to suggest the building is owned by DeTo or a family member but the details terribly vague. Perhaps the authors is playing up the mystery angle. Still a good read either way.

Interesting note about the goose which disappeared from the factory. Could it possibly be an unknown goose? Unserialized or with a currently unknown serial?

Somewhat related- I posted pics of a De Tomaso event recently put on in Italy by Santiago DeTomaso. I believe it’s the same gentleman who goes by Willis on these forums but I don’t believe he has posted recently. At the event was the original goose prototype, a blue formula car, a pantera and a beautiful open roof Vallellunga.
