DeTomaso Longchamp 1972-1989








De Tomaso Longchamp with Ford 351 Cleveland V8. A total of only 409 cars were built, including 14 convertibles. The rear disc brakes were mounted inboard, an unusual feature for a GT car from that era.

Many people prefer the earlier cars without the fender flares. Personally I love them with the flares! A large GT with flares is very rare and on this design it gives the car an even more muscular look. Almost like a mix between an early Japanese GT racecar and a Trans-Am car.
