Mangusta in Atlanta

Pantera 3rd&LastPantera 3rd&LastMember
Today at a large monthly car gathering I pulled in early and about ran the Pantera in to a pole.

My distraction was a gorgeous red Goose with wings extended. I have never seen a Mangusta in person and it was beautiful. As usual I forgot my camera and my cell phone pics are crappy. Below is a link to the eBay listing.

The owner had just purchased it and had taken delivery on Saturday. To my knowledge and please correct me on this, it is the only Mangusta in Georgia.

There are actually 3 Ford engine blues :
1942-48 light blue color,
1963-68 medium blue
1969-81 darker Corporate Blue.

Odds are you have never seen the early color. When you go to a show of Mustangs check the motors-out and you will notice the different shade. Now some restorers get their own blend of regular paint (which could be off also) they can spray it at higher presure (deeper gloss).
