1973 DeTomaso Pantera

The 1973 DeTomaso Pantera offered here presents a striking silhouette finished in vivid red over a black interior, with just over 85,000 miles shown. Designed by Italian coachbuilder Ghia, the Pantera combined sleek Italian styling with American power, creating a distinctive mid-engined sports car. Under the rear decklid sits Ford’s robust 351 cubic-inch Cleveland V8 paired to a ZF five-speed manual transaxle, delivering performance that defined the Pantera’s appeal. The car rides on Campagnolo alloy wheels and features pop-up headlights, quad exhaust outlets, and integrated bumpers consistent with its era of production.

Inside, the black interior showcases a driver-focused layout with leather-trimmed bucket seats, Veglia Borletti instrumentation, and a gated shifter commanding the mid-mounted powertrain. Standard features included air conditioning, power windows, and disc brakes at all four corners, reflecting the Pantera’s balance of performance and comfort. The cabin’s combination of analog instrumentation, sculpted dash, and purposeful ergonomics speaks to the Pantera’s dual identity as both an exotic sports car and a road-capable grand tourer. This example offers enthusiasts a classic blend of Italian design and American muscle, ready to be appreciated by its next custodian.
