    I wonder if the car in post 1377 is the one that appeared in the movie "Kill Bill".

    I believe the first car pictured in post #1378 is Mr. Ruzzin's chevy powered car. I heard him being interviewed by the show hosts on the public address system.

    If it's Chev powered, then that is his car. Only 1 on the planet.

    dicks car is pretty easy to identify. just look for the little bow tie emblem in the back.

    having ridding in the car i would say it really scoots. much more powerful than the standard ford.

    Have to rate the Mangusta as perhaps the 'coolest' looker ever.

    When you consider the production numbers its' only a matter of time before the collector car community wakes up and they become a $1M car. They have pedigree.

    got my copy recently of Dick Ruzzin's Mangusta book & it was worth the wait.
    He's done a commendable job of laying out the history of the Manguista & the design elements that make the car the beauty that it is.
    If you're a Mangusta aficionado, I'd add this to your collection.

    Looks like there are some mods in the engine bay and missing the spare. I wonder if black was original color? Also dash is not alcantara / mouse hair. Generally looks like a nice car in the photos. Anyone have history on this car?

    Makes the gold car in Tampa look overpriced.
