DeTomaso Pantera Sees the Light After Being Buried in Dust for 45 Years

 




    De Tomaso might not be a brand that younger car enthusiasts recognize, but seasoned aficionados with a bit of experience will surely recognize this classic Italian car with both style and muscle. Take note as this 1972 De Tomaso Pantera is discovered under years of dust after being long-forgotten.  Despite being neglected, this hidden treasure has bodywork and a chassis in great condition, minimal rust issues and is ready to be fully restored.  Even more surprising, the Pantera's interior is also well-preserved, with original gauges, an intact headliner, soft seats, and the factory 8-track stereo. With the thumbs up from the expert, the next step is to move the car out of the barn and onto a flatbed truck for further restoration.
