Good to see you have a good ol XB, GS is it a 2 door or 4 door ? I used to have a XA 2 door and a Landau a while back !

It's a coupe, the previous owner did a hack job underneath the rear window. Instead of removing the window trim, he bent it up, bogged it, then hammered the chrome back, yes hammered.

My rust free car has about 5 gallons of blackjack in the boot, the photos made it look like some sort of caulking. Eventually I will need to cut 25% of the boot pan and replace it.

Trying to find a good price on Pacemakers right now.

Three RHD GT5-S cars were sold a year or so ago by their UK owners (Gavin Hutton, Steve Butler & Mick Parsley)to Australia, and I would love to know who bought them. Those darn colonials are at it again!

By the way, does anyone have the chassis number and a photo of Steve Butler's car?

Here's a photo of #9610, a 1991 Pantera 90 Si converted to RHD by the factory and last known to belong to Werner Jungling in, I believe, Queensland.


Hi Peter

Not sure if this is going to get to you as I am new to this forum but I am a very good freind of Steve Butlers and I have a MINT 20,000 mile RHD GT5 for sale and I think that in Australia these cars are quite hard to come by

If you are any of your Australian freinds/club members would like to contact me on taz@zonexhibitions.co.uk I can forward all pictures etc to you...She is without doubt the BEST Pantera in the UK

Kind regards Taz 00447770613987

Taz:

I would be happy to pass on the information about your car to the contacts I have in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa (all of whom drive on the wrong side of the road, as I recall Wink).

Please PM me with whatever information you would like me to forward. Photos, build date and chassis number are the minimum, I'd say.

Cheers.

- Peter

I have a genuine 72 European GTS that I currently race in Australian Historics. This is a photo of it racing at Historic Sandown 2007.

I think this is the car I hear about all the time, Do you mind as a fellow Pantera owner I come up and say hi, next time you are at Sandown or the 'Island' ?
as a Friend of mine is a marshall at the historics and always tells me about the panteras that are at the historics.

A while back I made some enhancements to the (online) DeTomaso Registry so you could see a listing by country, to help you "Down Under".

The database tracks RHD as well, specifically in response to a request by a few of you.

The Registry can be found at www.DeTomasoRegistry.org
or www.Provamo.com

There are several privacy features to keep you safe. You will have to add your car (if not already present, and there is at least 20 there!) and send in some photos. But that is easy and fast.
See the FAQs page for details. Looking forward to hearing from you all!
