- Sold 3/24/21 at auction https://www.classic.com/veh/1970-de-tomaso-mangusta-8ma1098-WYLMrln/ $201,000 sold in Italy now in Greece. This 1970 DeTomaso Mangusta was acquired by its current owner in 2014 in the UK and subsequently shipped to Greece to join his collection. It is an ex-California, two-headlight ‘pop up’ model that is equipped with the Ford 302 cu. in. engine and a later type ZF transmission. It boasts a detailed and enticing history including an excellent restoration carried out in 1992, a concours award at the 50th anniversary of DeTomaso in 2009 in Modena and once belonging to Roger Brotton of DeTomaso marque specialists Three Point Four. More recent work includes a full overhaul of the ZF transmission by Jim Stokes Workshop in 2011 and most recently replacement fluids and an overhaul of the carburettors.
