gt5-9189, Marlin,

When deTomaso changed body manufacturers, the cars from the new one all came with the squared off rear wheel arches. These Panteras started with the 9000 chassis number. These cars were available as GTS, GT5, and GT5-S Panteras.

All Panteras came with 351C except the very last of the GT5-S's and the Si's. After '74, deTomaso had some left over US Clevelands which he used for a few years. After that, he used Austrailian built Clevelands until they ran out. Then he used a few 351 Winsdor truck motors in the last few GT5-S's. Only the Si came with the 5.0L (302) Mustang motors that deTomaso tweaked for more power.
