Selling my 1971 De Tomaso Pantera Pre L

Personally imported into the UK by myself back in 2011

This is the oldest recorded De Tomaso Pantera in the UK, being a July 1971 car it is extremely rare and being the most desirable Pre-L model - Vin THPNLJ02105

Fitted with matching number Ford Cleveland 5.7 (351 HO) motor (350 bhp) it is a matching number car, just as it left the factory back in 1971. This includes the original ZF Gearbox, which again is in perfect condition and selects all gears and has no whine on the over-run or syncro issues.

Although purchased from the U.S, (it is a LHD euro model car that was shipped to the states in the 80s)

The car requires very minor restoration and registering. Since the photos Oct 2012, it has had the carpets/seats replaced but not reinstated, the bumpers and exterior trim have all been removed and powder coated ready to re-fit (a few hours to put back on the road). The body work and chassis are rust free and the car just requires very minor preparation and a respray.

I have been quoted £5500 ($8000) to have the car completely bare metal prepared, windows out and resprayed and fitted back up and ready to use, this was going to be my winter project, but a new opportunity has arisen, which will steer me in another direction.

The engine/gearbox and running gear are perfect,I drove it back 120 miles from the port and it was absolutely faultless (the sound it makes is unbelievable) The engine starts on the button with out hesitation and has been fully serviced and set up.

I have quite a few spares that will go with the car, two sets of magnesium alloys, seats recovered, new carpet set, center console, gauges, window motors and suspension bushes all new.

It has been garaged all of its life hence the condition and reflects in the need for a very minor restoration job, which would not phase anyone,

All import documentation/paperwork and duties are paid and I have all the correct documentation for it to be registered in the UK or in mainland Europe.
