I have found a new passion in a particular automobile, 1971-1972 De Tomaso Pantera's.

Here are a couple to kick off...

 

 

Sorry, I had to.

 

Gt5s

 

Always been a fan of the Pantera's good looks. I never cared for the interiors though. Would love to see one with some modern day running gear behind the seats, maybe from the wrecked Ford GT. Oh yeah!

 

Those have to be the best looking Panteras I have ever seen...the cars of course!

 

owned this one for 18 years. good looks, horrible stock seats, brain-numbing interior noise. fun to drive wearing helmet.

 

LMAO!!! Good one!

 

My buddies uncle is like THE premier Pantera guy, for sure on the east coast.

He built one with a custom body kit, his own suspension he fabricated, twin turbo SBF, BMW interior, etc. Thing is absolutely sick, been in magazines etc.

At any given time, he's usually got 4 or 5 of them at his shop. All BIG dollar builds, many for people overseas.

I'll see if I can got some pictures up.

 

What year is that...its rolling sex if you ask me!

 

Here's the orange one with the TT351. It did 205MPH in 4th gear @ Pocono.

Sure. That's Pat Michal's place. Well-known in the Pantera community. Saw that car at Pocono about 5 years ago.

 

I figured someone on here might know him. Awesome guy, the shop is amazing and about 5 minutes from my house.

Very talented guy. There aren't many shops around here doing that kind of work...

 

Wow, it hardly even looks like a Pantera anymore. When I first saw it, I thought it was a Vector. Got any engine shots?

 

Here's my baby..........
