Dunno who sells parts books nowadays. Most of the vendors plus the DeTomaso 
factory itself used to sell an official post-Ford illustrated edition of 
about100 pgs. Mine has a black cover, a print date of 1985 & covers parts for the 
wide-body GT5 and GT5-S cars, as well as the earlies & some club-racing Gr-3 
parts. Since the factory folded, this one isn't too useful either, except 
historically. I also have a reprint of a 1975-edition 'insert' covering parts they 
began making just after DeTomaso bought back the factory from Ford. I miss 
Hall's yearly parts catalogues..... the WWW just isn't the same.  FWIW- J DeRyke
