Reply to "WTB: 1969 Mangusta"

deniscCaretaker of 8MA1244 '70 Euro Mangusta DRIVE THEM, THEY WERE MEANT TO BE DRIVEN, IF YOU WANT TO LOOK AT ONE, BUY A POSTER!

This 8MA1200, it was formerly Clyde Kwok (Aerodynamics engineer)out of Montreal. It was a ground-up restored in early 2000's. This was the 1st Mangusta to command $100K. The jackshaft effectively removed and a small alternator installed. A/C is removed. Mr Kwok's son (Hugh)was a racer so he may have tried to rework the rear frame to add rigidity (google: triposto)

As to the clock, older pics show the correct one, but they are getting expensive and hard to find so I guess someone just put another similar (incorrect) working Veglia piece in the hole.

Rear light behind grill were added first as rear fog lamps then converted to back-up lamps for Euro MOT.

PS: someone decided to add info to the normally blank VIN plate and in their great wisdom added the short VIN off the donor motor (8C833238)= 1968 289. So we know this car does not have it's original block.
