1971 De Tomasa Pantera

The Italian built Pantera is a mid engine sports car produced by De Tomasa between 1971 and 1993. Introduced in the USA at the New York Motor Show in 1970 the car experienced a number of design faults including lack of head room. The Pantera offered power windows, power assisted disc brakes, air conditioning and rack and pinion steering all as standard equipment. Over the years the model experienced a number of design and feature changes, with the last Pantera being delivered in 1992. The photograph of the engine, which is mostly hidden, shows the blue air filter sitting just behind the drivers right elbow.
