The de Tomaso Deauville early series 2 entered the market somewhere in 1975, but wasn’t officially launched as such. It gradually evolved into a new version during the years, a typical way of working for small car production companies. The early second series still had a leather and velours interior but with normal headrests, still the full leather interior was an option. Also the de Tomaso Deauvillle kept the standard airconditioning, power steering and electric windows. The Ghia badges on the side panels were removed in favour of ventilation louvres for better engine cooling. It still featured the sleek chrome bumpers but the rectangle de Tomaso Logo in the grille .
The early 2nd series Deauville was produced roughly between 1975 and 1977 and can be recognised with the last 4 serial number digits between #1400 and #1498. Before the late Series 2 closed the final chapter.
