History notes
auction, This 1973 DeTomaso Pantera was ordered new through Borough Motors of Charlotte, North Carolina, and underwent a color change to black prior to the seller’s acquisition in 2009. Refurbishment work completed that year by marque specialist Leslie “Les” Gray involved rebuilding the ZF five-speed manual transaxle, overhauling the power-assisted disc brakes, installing Koni adjustable shocks, and more as detailed below. Updates in 2015 included repainting the body in black with a white and blue center stripe as well as re-trimming the seats in black leather. The car rides on 15″ Campagnolo cast magnesium wheels and features pop-up headlights along with impact bumpers. Power is provided by a 351ci Ford Cleveland V8 fitted with a Demon carburetor from Barry Grant along with an Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold and a stainless-steel exhaust system with ANSA finishers. Inside, a three-spoke steering wheel is paired with a gated shifter and accompanied by an AM/FM stereo, air conditioning, and power windows. The seller has run the vehicle in the Copperstate 1000 and Going to the Sun rallies under their ownership, and service in 2024 is noted to have included performing fluid changes as well as replacing the water pump, thermostat, and starter. This Pantera is now offered with a Deluxe Marti report, manufacturer’s literature, partial records, a tool kit, a car cover, and a clean Indiana title in the name of the seller and a trust.
