Overview of 1971 De Tomaso Pantera For Sale by Owner

The 1971 De Tomaso Pantera was already an unusual machine when new, combining Italian mid-engine styling with American V8 muscle, but this example takes that formula much further. Showing 30,582 miles, this Pantera has been extensively updated and refurbished while retaining the 351ci Cleveland V8 and 5-speed manual transaxle layout that defines the model. According to the seller, virtually every major area of the car has been addressed apart from the ZF transaxle, which is reported to function well. Finished in Concours Red over a custom White leather interior, the car features an all-steel body with flared fenders, ground effects, brake-cooling ducts, shaved door handles, modified headlight buckets, Group 4 tail lights, and a relocated fuel door. Underneath, the build extends to Koni suspension components, upgraded braking hardware, stainless cooling components, and a thoroughly reworked Cleveland V8. This is less a lightly modified Pantera and more a comprehensive enthusiast build centered on preserving the model’s raw character while sharpening nearly every part of the experience.

Exterior and Interior

The exterior of this 1971 De Tomaso Pantera is finished in Concours Red and has been heavily reworked with an emphasis on an aggressive, purposeful stance. According to the seller, the body modifications were completed in metal rather than bonded-on fiberglass, with the rear wing being the only plastic exterior component. Flared fenders, ground effects, vented brake-cooling ducts, shaved door handles, a relocated exterior fuel door, modified headlight buckets with low-profile LED lamps, and Group 4 tail lights all contribute to a much more competition-inspired appearance. The car rides on 17-inch Hall Pantera wheels, while the seller describes the paintwork on both the body and engine compartment as concours quality. A recessed front trunk battery box and rust-proofed frame rails are additional details that speak to how extensive the build became. The interior of this 1971 De Tomaso Pantera is finished in custom White leather and has been reupholstered throughout. High-back bucket seats with built-in speakers immediately set this cabin apart from a stock Pantera, while 4-point racing harnesses and a removable steering wheel add a more purposeful, driver-focused feel. The bright upholstery contrasts dramatically with the red exterior and gives the cabin a bespoke character that matches the level of customization seen throughout the rest of the car.The interior of this 1971 De Tomaso Pantera is finished in a custom white leather upholstery package that gives the cabin a more bespoke appearance while retaining the focused cockpit feel expected from a mid-engine Italian sports car. The upgraded high-back bucket seats feature built-in speakers, while a removable steering wheel and 4-point racing harnesses reinforce the Pantera’s motorsport-inspired character. The reupholstered cabin combines vintage exotic-car atmosphere with functional upgrades suited for spirited driving.The interior of this 1971 De Tomaso Pantera combines exotic-car character with custom craftsmanship. The cabin features a custom White Leather interior with high-back bucket seats equipped with built-in speakers, a removable steering wheel, and 4-point racing harnesses. Additional details include a reupholstered interior and custom touches designed to enhance both the visual appeal and driving experience of this mid-engine Italian-American sports car.

Engine

Power comes from a 351ci Cleveland V8 backed by a 5-speed manual transaxle, and according to the seller, the engine is the car’s original unit and was completely torn down during the build. The cylinders were reportedly sonic tested, and the engine was then balanced and blueprinted with a Comp 280 camshaft, stainless valves, roller rockers, high-intensity lifters, an aluminum water pump, and ARP hardware. Induction comes through a Holley 670 Avenger 4-barrel carburetor and polished Performer intake manifold, while big-bore headers and an MSD ignition system further sharpen the setup. Supporting hardware includes stainless-steel water lines, an updated cooling-fan arrangement, a stainless radiator tank and catch can, and a Centerforce clutch and pressure plate. The polished transaxle and bell housing, upgraded polished transaxle mounts, Koni shocks and springs, powder-coated suspension components, JFZ braking system, brake-cooling ducts, and custom-bracketed chrome sway bar complete a mechanical package built to give this Pantera far more presence than a standard example.

Current Ask
$57,000

This 1956 Chevrolet 150 Restomod is a clean Tri-Five build with the kind of mechanical and cosmetic upgrades that make these cars genuinely fun to drive. Showing approximately 3,050 miles, it features a custom Green and White paint job over a reupholstered Brown leather interior and is powered by a 383ci Summit Racing crate V8 paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. The engine has been positioned 1.5 inches forward, while Sanderson headers, a 3.90 Posi-Traction rear end, power-assisted disc brakes, electric cooling, and an aluminum radiator give the car a far more capable setup than a stock 150. Add Dakota Digital gauges, air conditioning, a trunk-mounted battery, 17-inch mag wheels, and an upgraded sound system, and this is a well-rounded restomod that blends classic Tri-Five style with much more modern road manners.
