Anyone Know Anything bout this car 1971 DeTomaso Pantera

It looks pretty clean, but I don't like the names of the resto crew on the trunk / brake booster cover. It looks like it's fuel injected, but you can only see the end portion of the intake cover in the trunk area. It looks kind of like a late model GM fuel injection set-up, but it says it's got a 351 in it. Taking a closer look it looks like it might be a DOHC engine looking at the valve covers, the spark plug wires enter in the center of the valve cover. I don't have an eBay account so it won't let me ask any questions. I wonder how the underside looks.

they did that to a PUSHBUTTON!!!

Line them up and shoot them, right NOW!

And don't they know those tailights look like crap?

Good catch on the tail lights Larry. I missed that one. Too bad about it being a Pushbutton car too.

Someone tell Brian to buy this car instead of cutting up his (his fathers?) Pushbutton Pantera.

Are those rust bubbles below the AC grill/between the mufflers???

That one image shows some of the suspension from the back. Looks pretty cruddy under there so most likely not much work has been done to rebuild the suspension.

Maybe you've all missed the fact that this car with it's Kilometer style speedo makes this a car from Europe or the Middle East, thus the reason for the Arabic names on the resto sign'in. The car looks very awesome to me. If someone is really interested in this car, have someone who owns a Pantera in Florida check it out for you - that's what fellow enthusiasts do for one another.

You'd think as a marketer for this crowd, they could have at least had one pic with the engine tray removed to show the engine/transaxle!

I agree, show the engine bay, but maybe they don't know the tub can come out . I believe the engine bay is painted, because on the right side of the tub you can see the yellow engine bay. Too bad, may be nice stuff in there.
