my dad was the engineer on the interior.. i drove a few of them.. they are fun as shit to drive.. i have all kinds of literature on the car including a picture of my dad with the first car off the production line in italy.. he actually started working on it when he was at visteon then he retired and bruce qvale hired him direct to finish the project.. about 2 years later they sold out to MG and my dad went on to another company..

this is the transam race car they had - i hung out with the driver brian simo at the detroit grand prix.. he raced in nascar for a small stint.. the guy was a phenomenal driver:
 the silver one is not bad looking either but the pictures still don't do it justice:  red:  can't find a good pic of the yellow but if i dig through my archives i have a good one of me in the driver's seat:  what was cool about this car was the hard top convertible actually went into the trunk when it was retracted.. of course there was no trunk room though but hell it's a sports car not an suv.. detomaso actually started this whole project and qvale ended up taking it over.. i also have literature of when it started as detomaso..
