De Tomaso Mangusta Engine Compartment Restoration by Johnny Woods.

Engine Compartment

De Tomaso Mangusta 8MA1182

I was asked to restore the engine compartment. The car came to me with the paint and body already done. Working around the fresh paint was inconvenient but possible.

Interior Retrim

1971 De Tomaso Mangusta 8MA1294

One of the last Mangustas built, this car was raced extensively in the 80s & 90s. It was later detuned and used as a road car, retaining its full roll cage. I was asked to retrim the interior and fabricate all the missing bits.

De Tomaso Mangusta Becker Mexico Modifications for iPod by Johnny Woods.

Becker Mexico

De Tomaso Mangusta 8MA1216

Installing a Becker Mexico Cassette into Jonathan Root's apple green 'Goose. The brief was simple: "I want to look at the Becker but use the iPod to play my music, and I do not want to have speakers in the doors".
