I Don't know. Panteras with Pre-L bumpers and pretty gorgeous on their own. I love the flares with wide rubber tho.

Nicely done! Lots of clever ideas, engineering and execution.
Mucho $, though. Never get it back.
Prefer my original '72.
Can't say I've never seen a bad Pantera, because some people have done really odd stuff, including a Chevy engine!
Alterations here are tasteful, and create a nice update. Proves that it is a timeless design. When I open the garage doors and see the 2 Gt's and Pantera side-by-side, the 50 year old looks like it fits right in.

Ah, I would say that is pretty bad. In fact horribly bad.

I have spent many years on my 71 Pantera.
Just going to do it again with a large displacement Cleveland.
Lot's of work to do it the right way.
I know that they spent a lot of time and money on this car, but I don't like the result.
That said, it's his car.
Best,
Mark

Sold mine to buy the GT. Dont regret it at all, but I miss that car!

GT5-S cars are crazy expensive now. Almost FGT money.

My wife and I just took our early ‘72 lime green Pantera for a cruise and to a show on Sunday. Great cars.

Will this coupling yield a hybrid? A GTera?

If only they would reproduce so easily.

2 fantastic cars.

I just need the lift.

I put my BMW 850 (12 cylinder) under my Pantera on the lift hoping they would produce a McLaren F1...I even played Barry White music.
