Deffo on the same page with "kiss my *** purists"
The purists flat lined when I re-rigged the flip up headlights on this.

Had to google the toy gt. Excuse my ignorance but I don't recognize what it is?Do you own the car in picture? Looks like a Toyota 2000 GT.
Used to own it 79 - 81. 1970 deTomaso Mangusta, predecessor to Pantera(Panteras were assembly line cars), but only 401 hand built, Ford 302 mated to ZF t-axle. 1967-1971. In middle of production DOT mandated that the headlight beam be raised, so deTomaso rigged Lancia style flip up 7 " single beam headlights(Marchals) that were always exposed at a downward angle in retract, but raised above fender decks when deployed. Cable operated "band aid" that sucked, I hated em, so I fixed mine in grille nacelle. The other cars had fixed quad lights in grille nacelle.Do you own the car in picture? Looks like a Toyota 2000 GT.
Oh, many of the European market Mangustas were 289's & some of those were Shelby-ized with Weber stacks.Had to google the toy gt. Excuse my ignorance but I don't recognize what it is?

I might have my '62 there this year if all goes right. I'd have to be in the '62 modified so I'd be right down from you!I sure hope so as I like to put my car in the showfield since that way I can sit by my car a lot because I cant do a lot of walking with my knee and back problems. Ron
