I want one. Much prefer the look of the early cars, the right colour with subtle and practical upgrades.
I like listening to you talk about your cars, you are passionate about your cars!
Thank you very much!
That thing sounds amazing for sure! A Pantera would turn so many heads at a car show
Terrific video! Great to see another beautiful Detomaso and an enthusiastic owner.
Thank you very much!
Love the Pantera. Such a good looking car.
Great video and awesome car buddy ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Super nice classic sportscar. Far better looking than todays hyper cars.
Thanks for showing us the car.
Cheers.
My favorite in the collection Mike! Great Video! Look forward to see in the flesh
Anytime and thank you!
Awesome pantera, great choice on the wheels, have a blast brother
Thank you!
I'm 58 y.o. and saw a very good example of Pantera (it was a retired race car in suitable dressing and dark yellow - matt black paint scheme) once in a life-time when I was at early 20s. Since then, no other cars looked that good, sharp, raw and handsome to me. I still love it dearly and think this is the only design that can catch a unique beauty with so simple lines (maybe Miura, too ?). This vid will be in my fav list with hundreds of Pantera clips.
Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
The Delorean and the Pantera are keepers in my book!!
I agree 👍
Mikey, you have waaay too much fun! Im gonna have to come back and pay you a visit!
Any time my friend
Miss my Panteras. Tons of fun.
I love mine, think it will be with me for many years to come.
Nice example. Great color for it too.
Thank you, the car is an amazing amount of fun
This is spectacular. It has an extremely silent engine, and at the same time is of extreme power. Listening to the audio in the video, from inside the cockpit, you can hear the roar in acceleration, and it's fantastic. It 's very particular including the driver's seat. I also really like the very sporty pedals: it probably requires driving shoes, or I think you can drive even better without shoes, to get even more feeling and grip. I say this, because I usually prefer to drive without shoes, or totally barefoot.
Yes a lot of people do drive them without shoes. I can fit in there as long as the shoes aren't too wide
I agree with you. However try to drive without shoes your Pantera: just out of curiosity, and you'll notice a total symbiosis with the car.
Welcome to the club!!
Thank you
They were comparable to a new Vette in their day. However had real issues to overcome with upgraded engineering. Actually ahead of it’s time.
Sweet ride
Thank you!!
Nice motor
I love yellow Panteras!
Think I saw the Pantera blush. :P
Hi Mike,
Glad to see you having fun with your Pantera. The noise is addicting and mine is extremely loud to the point that I'm worried about the new enforcement parameters of California's decibel law. My recent 351C transplant is up just north of 500hp, but I haven't really tested its limits yet. It's in the shop this week for some cooling system updates. This summer I hope to drive it up to Concorso Italiano for the first time so I'm preparing the car now. Hopefully, you'll have yours there as well and we can compare notes. By the way, there is a new front spoiler coming to market for front end downforce from SACC. I am considering it as well.
Thank you!! Yes your car definitely sounds like a beast and I would love to see it sometime. I like the down force news, it's much needed
Ted Geldberg I think 500 hp is perfect for this kind of car. Not too much power.
Just got a new subscriber👍
Thank you, happy to have you here!
That is one FAT LeCarra steering wheel!
This is my dream car and this is all my opinion i would put the widebody kit with the front spoiler now thats possible
This car will do more then turn heads
R Jalomo Just buy the Pantera GT5, comes standard with the wide body.
@@pacovl46 hard to find and very expensive i want 72 pantera with a new Coyote motor twin turbos
R Jalomo good luck! May your dream come true!
that car sounds so hot !!! love to own something like that.
i see you have a flying brick in the background (the blue kombi) xx
It is an amazing car, I absolutely love it!
Yes, the bus is my wife's, she really enjoys it!!
@@ExtremeAutomotiveAddiction we have a kombi...we call it the bombi lol
I appreciate your looking out for me boss
I try buddy
I got to drive one just like this yellow one. I had to do some paint repair on it at a body shop I was working at. Couldnt get on it. Because it was a customers car. But it had a 351 Cleveland in it. Id rather have one of these than alot of the euro crap thats rollin around.
My thoughts exactly. Thank you for the comment
You're correct on the horsepower, we all want 1000 hp until we realize the car isn't a pleasure to drive, both my frc and my karman ghia are way over powered, and now i don't drive them as much, lessons learned
Yes, it's not so much how much HP you make it's how much can be put to the road
Nice car with great exhaust note. Does your friend with the black Pantera have any videos of his car?
I don't think so, just the one I did some time back
Excellent upload sir,I just would like to ask a couple of details about the Pantera:
◽reportedly it was prone to overheating - was there some fault in the cooling system ?Being the 351originally engineered for front engined cars did It suffer being placed in the rear
compartment ? How did this problem got fixed?
◽What about the gearing ? Is it true the 5th gear was virtually working as an overdrive ?
Thanks a lot for the infos,greetings from 🇮🇪
Yes they did have cooling issues which was fixed by upgrading the radiator and fans. Mine runs nice and cool now.
Yes 5th gear is definitely and OD. Basically not needed until I reach freeway speeds 70+.
Thanks for watching!!
Engine parts are very cheap because of the Ford engine. With the Italian looks and exclusivity is a good combination.
The downforce on the front end is probably why Tim Horton, Toronto Maple Leaf defenseman, lost control of his ‘72 Pantera on the way back to Buffalo from Maple Leaf Gardens. He died in a white one on the Queen Elizabeth Way, near St. Catherine’s Ontario, Canada. He started Tim Hortons Donuts.
Ya they get pretty light around 120 to 130
That's not the stock exhaust. What is it and who makes it?
No definitely not stock and I cant say that I have seen anything on it to indicate who makes it.
Does sound great though
No 4.6 harness 🤤
he looks at the gear lever at each gear change- is it that awkward?
Ya...once.i got used to it I was a little better 👍
Judging by your story of your purchase why would anyone go to your suggested dealer. He sounds unreliable as hell.
Original wheels would look better.
It came with the original wheels which I sold. I much more prefer these but thank you for the comment!
