Reply to "Pantera #4422 - is it a 1972 EURO import car?"

Not sure- I learn something about Panteras every day but I've never seen a DeTomaso VIN tag like that. Non-Euro tags have rounded corners, not square, 4 rivits not two and has the stampings done from the back so they protrude, not done from the front as indents. And there's no space on them for an importer. How can a car supposedly built in Modena, IT be 'imported' into Italy? Perhaps that's his version of a VIN tag or maybe the concessionaire's? Dunno....

As Kirk said, it looks similar in some ways to the Amerisport tags for the 37 Cars he imported into Canada, finished & sold in the U.S back in the '80s. Attached for info are an OEM U.S. tag and a 'Panteras by Wilkinson' repro tag. As I said, factory paperwork (from Marcel Straub) should clear all this up.
