Isn't it just poetic? The walls are still there, everything else is gone. Except the mockup of the model that if produced (*) would maybe have saved DeTomaso for the future. That's still there, it sits there silently, with a sad but also menacing grin, wondering what could have been. I know I'm preaching to the believers here, but the world needs a DeTomaso, a supercar that's just a bit less brand and a lot more practicality and DIY than what's left in the world today.

(*) I love this mock up and would have bought it if it was produced. When I was there 5 years ago the chassis to go with it was there, pure race car, with Ford modern injection engine, huge brakes etc. It would have been fantastic and not cost an arm and a leg, well maybe half an arm... I want that mockup in my living room, need to talk to the wife.
