Hi Peter,
Contrary to what Jack has said your car is a true Euro GTS, black euro bumperettes, mouse hair L dash and other Euro only traits give it away. I suggest to get hold of Chuck at Provamo.com and have him get you access to his website and registry. The photos he has show a Euro front plate which might offer a route to tracing some history.
I purchased my first Pantera from Gullwing Motorcars, they are a high volume low profit outfit and. I wouldn't hold out much hope that they will have much if any history.
If your previous Pantera is the one I am thinking of that was abandoned in Saudi and rescued it was a late model GT5 as opposed to GTS. The later GT5 cars were made in limited numbers.
Santiago's new venture, RSCorse has all the old De Tomaso parts and records, the website is http://www.rscorse.com/ and e-mail contact chiara.rscorse@gmail.com
Good luck,
Julian
