Yes, all true, BUT this a Euro car. Your rules apply to North American marketed cars.
This one could have been fresh off the presses?
Marti won't even have records of this one. He only has the US Ford records. Detomaso could do whatever he wanted outside of North America as far as Ford was concerned.
CIA maybe but a little too conspicuous for those guys.

What was intriguing to me, is why would a sane diplomat leave his brand new Pantera behind and not take it home to USA after having served in Europe and North Africa, and specially after having driven it 4500KM across Africa with one wooden leg. I am certain the memories compiled in that trip alone was worth it.

To my humble automotive brain, something does not add up. Or was it some sort of toy that cant be under his name back home... ? Kind of odd that he left it behind and sold it in Egypt in my humble opinion.
