The 4 lugged Mangusta

Can you tell me what color orange that you used?
Thanks
Mark

I see 5 lugs on this Goose...

I think this car is in Sweden/Norway, right?

I have no idea what color or where this car is located. I posted this picture as an example of the wheel setup I would like...sorry for the confusion. So, how would you achieve this setup?

Yes, it's in Norway.
I don't know if the owner want's his name on the net, but anyone interested might be able to find him by this public picture.

There are more there from this years Sportscar Spring Meet in Oslo.

Hi again,
I've got questions about contact information to the owner, so I called him. He was more than willing to talk about his Goose, but "is not an internet guy".
He can be contacted by email: post at betovent.no
From our short conversation: Bought the car from Mr. Sbarro, a well known car designer and personal friend of Mr. DeTomaso. Car was yellow when bought, but was orange under that. Present colour is from a Lambo. Present owner made new hubs to convert to 5-lug. Rims are Halibran copies, made by Image in England. 18x13" rear with 345/30 Pilots. 18x9" front, didn't remember tire size. We didn't talk about engine, but if I don't remember wrong he has 351C with IR injection.
This Goose is a beautiful piece of work indeed.

those wheels look great on that Goose. I think they look 'similar' to the original Campy's AND they are cool all on their own! Sweet looking car in orange.

..he also achieved his goal of filling those wells, I'd say nearly PERFECTLY! well done!

I must admit that the wheels change the entire car. Someone did some serious work there. That looks like an 18" in the rear?

Kind of makes it look like a roller skate now rather then the batmobile like it was?

I wonder how the tire/wheel changes effect handling on it or is it more for show then go?

I do like orange on these cars but the Lamborghini orange has too much Star wars effect on it's character. Something like Ford Competition orange is more period correct I think?

I do like it though. Love Mangustas in general. Really neat car.

I think that if I was going to do something with the drivetrain I would stay in the stock 289/302 block size, stroke it to 347 or 355 and go with the Morrison cross ram IR EFI. Why not? That would stay in character to the car. Why put a C in it. Doesn't make sense to me?

One of the neatest conversions on a 'Goose I ever saw was a black one from L.A. 10 years ago that had a late fuel injected 5-l in it. Everything fit, the F.I. manifold cleared the engine covers and reportedly only 1/8" of 'trim' was needed from the access door surround to clear the stock serpentine belt. Very neat, easy conversion, a little more torque and better mileage. If you're bucks-up, aluminum heads will drop another 50 or so pounds off the package.

Larryw, I found a couple of pics.

One more...

I have seen that photo and those wheels look spectacular on the goose...5 lugs
