Reply to "Pantera #4829 - Chassis has Group 4 lightening holes"

I think this is an interesting investigation, and hope that this line of investigation results in a satisfactory conclusion.

Perhaps the Pantera Plus program was BASED on the Group 4 cars? Maybe taking all the lessons learned, and applying it to a later vehicle, specifically for an individual customer? Or perhaps for a later generation of Pantera race cars?

Some evidence suggests that DeTomaso DID NOT reserialize cars if they were early cars that were sold later - I am specifically referring to dvil’s 1025 Pantera, a pushbutton car apparently sold from the factory in ~’74.

Good luck, Peter!

Keep us posted!
