Our Take:
  • Rarity and Heritage: The De Tomaso Pantera is a fascinating blend of Italian design and American muscle, courtesy of its Italian roots and Ford-sourced powertrain. Introduced in the early '70s as a joint venture between De Tomaso and Ford, the Pantera was a symbol of transcontinental collaboration. Today, finding one that's been so meticulously restored like this one is akin to discovering a time capsule from a golden era of automotive innovation.
  • Restoration Quality: With a no-expense-spared rotisserie restoration, this Pantera is practically reborn. The attention to detail—down to the soda and media blasting to bare metal and comprehensive rust protection—ensures it's not just a looker, but also a solid performer. Enthusiasts know that a restoration by specialists like Panoz adds a layer of prestige and ensures the work is as authentic as it is thorough.
  • Engine and Performance Upgrades: Beneath its striking Italian bodywork lies the heart of a beast: a 351 Cleveland V8 that's been meticulously enhanced. Built by Elliot's racing crew, it's balanced, blueprinted, and features components like roller rockers and a mild cam. The upgrades are the kind that ensure this Pantera doesn't just roar to life; it sprints with vigor and grace—qualities that were part of its original allure.
  • Interior and Comfort Improvements: While the exterior and engine get the lion's share of attention, the inside is where the magic continues. A rewrapped leather dashboard and other upgraded touches like Dynamat soundproofing make for a comfy cabin, marrying vintage flair with modern creature comforts. Plus, with a R-34 AC system, driving this classic isn't just a visual feast, but a comfortable journey, even in the sweltering heat of an Atlanta summer.
