The 1983 De Tomaso Longchamp: Italian Style Meets American Muscle

The 1983 De Tomaso Longchamp is a rare jewel in the world of classic grand tourers (GT). This Italian masterpiece combines stunning design with the thrilling performance of a Ford V8, making it a true collector's item.

Italian Design Heritage
Designed by Tom Tjaarda at Ghia, the Longchamp boasts a sleek and stylish profile that turns heads wherever it goes. The influence of Tjaarda's earlier Lancia Marica prototype is evident in the car's flowing lines, while the use of Alfa Romeo 1750/2000 taillights adds a touch of classic Italian flair.


American Power Meets Italian Handling
Under the hood of the 1983 Longchamp lies a powerful Ford 351 Cleveland V8 engine. This iconic American powerplant provides exhilarating performance, perfectly complementing the car's all-independent suspension for a truly engaging driving experience.
