Interesting dash
Squared engine bay panels and no brace?
Looks to me like the builder added those squared-off panels to convey the look of the GT5. Interesting idea, but since the curved-edges of the upper panels remain, not totally convincing.
Some very odd details and customization on that car. I'd say that the price looks a bit optimistic given what REAL GT5s have sold for in the last few years.

Looks like the seller has another Pantera in the garage. Appears to be a white pre-L with hood vents.
For posterity
The owner (located in Woodinville, Washington), is asking $87,500.
The forum has one former member from Woodinville, Rod Mueller. No posts since 2002.
This pre-L was once located in Tennessee as per Van Ness. It is currently located in Washington. Both are MOIST states.
The value of the car would improve if it were restored rather than customized/personalized ... or even if it were a "reverent" & "authentic" clone of a GT5. Buyers in states with strict smog laws like "reverent" & "authentic" clones. Some things are best left to the Italians.

I believe he is the same guy with all of the stash of Pantera parts for sale, has 6 or 7 Panteras, This one was from Colorado if I remember right. Nice guy.

Since I own a Bora the dash seems a poor interpretation in concept of the Bora dash. The idea is nice but the execution could have been much better.
Here is the restoration, which explains the wheelhouse.

3358 interior
As an italian I have to say:
"Hanno fatto un inquacchio!!" or ....they really messed it up. If there is a beautiful thing about the pantera that is the interior, it was enough to have penny pinched in the 70's with the "similpelle" that so simile was not!!
