1972 De Tomaso Pantera – American Muscle Meets Italian Design
The De Tomaso Pantera marked a bold collaboration between American power and Italian style. Styled by Carrozzeria Ghia and penned by American-born designer Tom Tjaarda, the Pantera debuted at the 1970 New York Auto Show, hitting the market in 1971 and instantly turning heads.
This striking 1972 example—finished in a vibrant green—features a freshly rebuilt, numbers-matching (03077) 351 Cleveland V8, tuned and ready to perform. The engine has been JetCleaned, decked, bored, and honed, and upgraded with forged pistons, a Crane hydraulic roller camshaft, aluminum intake, Holley carburetor, factory headers, and MSD ignition with billet distributor. It’s balanced, broken in, and dyno-tested at 461 hp and 460 lb-ft of torque.
Performance is matched by handling thanks to a fully independent double wishbone suspension with coilovers, rack and pinion steering, and front and rear stabilizer bars. Braking comes courtesy of power four-wheel discs, and a ZF 5-speed manual transaxle with a 4.22 Posi differential puts all that power to the pavement.
Additional highlights include:
Early-style small bumpers
Power windows and air conditioning
AM/FM/Cassette stereo with full instrumentation
Original Campagnolo alloy wheels (refinished by Wheels America) wrapped in fresh rubber: 205/60R15 (front) and 295/50R15 (rear)
With 130 more horsepower than stock, this Pantera is a visceral thrill to drive—and with only 2,131 produced, it’s a rare piece of automotive history that’s poised to keep appreciating.
Another unicorn from the team that makes dreams real. (G-suit and helmet not included.)
