The De Tomaso Mangusta is a sports car produced between 1967 and 1971 that became well-known for having gull wing doors over the luggage compartment and the engine. The car was originally built with a Ford 289 V-8 engine rated at 306 horsepower on the European market and with the Ford 302 V-8 rated at 221 horsepower on the American car market. The car features disc brakes on all four wheels, and other perks like power windows and air conditioning were on the leading edge of technology for the auto’s time. The car is known to be difficult to handle, and it has extremely low ground clearance. Today, there are approximately 250 of the original 401 produced still in existence.
