Seems the driver is also from that era 😁👍🏻
One of the cars that truly fascinated me in my childhood, although it was only much later that I managed to see one live. The flamboyance of Alejandro de Tomaso, wearing watches above sleeve cuffs (specially made shirts for this) carried the brand for a while, and the boldness of buying Maserati, too. But the 1980s were the beginning of the end for these kind of manufacturers 🤷🏻♂️
Very cool in the clean, original design 👌🏻👍🏻
It is a beautiful Detomaso Pantera a great Italian designed car with an American big block engine and running gear.
One of my best friends was seriously addicted to Detomaso cars and had a Pantera, Longchamp and a racing Mangusta which was insanely quick. This picture really reminds me of that time and I can't even remember the last time I saw any Detomaso on the road....
There was one just down the street
from my high school, exact same color. I drooled every day as the bus I rode went past it.
Wow, a chrome bumper pre-L Pantera.
These were the least developed - most problematic - but also the fastest with the original pre-smog 351 Clevelands. Also, these were the best looking without the heavy bumpers of the 73-74 era and the faux IMSA gingerbread body flares and wings of the 80s...
This view of these cars is almost obscene
Its like what Jean Jennings wrote in Automobile Magazine about the rear view of a Porsche 917 and "all the prurient parts hanging out..."
