Reply to "Orignal Wheel Centers"

Sorry, I have been back for a couple of weeks, and I am just getting to this. It seems that there were THREE different centers used on the Mangusta. The First set, following the vallelunga had the T over the Argentine flag. Because of the deal with Ford, the flag was flipped, and the brass stamped ones were produced. It seems these were too expensive so the 200+ that were to be used on the Pantera, were used on the Mangusta. Then when the cheaper ones were created, these were used on the last set of Mangustas. It seems that the factory had made up a bunch of new (the flag going the correct way) for the new Pantera two, but when that did not happen, they put them away. Santiago gave me the next to last set, and the last set was incase someone wanted another set.

I am getting a die from Italy for the brass punched ones, and will be making some up.
