Longchamp GTS in Calendar

My brother has a Superformance cobra. The people who buy the car send in photos and they send out a calendar selected from peoples photos. It would be cool for some one such as PI to do that.

This has been done a few times... Once by POCA, and once by an independent effort that produced an 18-month calendar, I think... POCA also produced a huge poster-style calender in 2000 that was at least partially subsidied by the Vendors. I have all three, and think it would be a good idea. There ought to be historical data to either justify the investment or not, depending on how those efforts turned out financially...

Whenever calendars come out I always seek out the car ones and search them for a Pantera (I'm sure I'm not alone in this). Needless to say, I'm usually disappointed. It's been years since I've seen one on a wall calendar.

An all Pantera calendar is a smashing idea! I'd buy one, or possibly three. Make it happen!

Paul Oxman publishing has a 2005 calendar featuring sports cars of the '70s. There's a Pantera in it.

I have a 2004 calendar that features a red Pantera for the month of August. Title of the calendar was Classic Performance Cars.

That is my Longchamp. When I was living in Detroit Car & Driver was asking local clubs to bring their cars out to possibly include in the calendar, so I did. I am now living in Santa Clara, CA. I have had my 74 Pantera for over 17 years and belong to PI & POCA. PI did a feature on my car last year.

This car was the prototype for the second series Longchamp and was owned/driven by Mrs DeTomaso for 7 years. Kirk Evans of Amerisport imported it in 1985. It is a blast to drive. I took it to Vegas and Monerey this year.

I love Longchamps. Please post a few pictures of your car. Torker

There are a bunch on Longchamps at www.carcommunity.net, as well as other DeTomaso's.

I know of 4 cars for sale in the US if you are interested. They are all over priced, but they may take a reasonable offer.
