The 1974 De Tomaso Pantera is a mid-engine sports car that blends
genuine Italian design with American muscle, a product of the
collaboration between De Tomaso and Ford. Now extremely rare,
approximately 1,112 were made in 1974.
Culturally, Panteras had a significant impact in their era. For
example, Panteras were owned by celebrities like Elvis Presley (who
famously shot his 1974 Pantera's dashboard), Johnny Carson, and
others. The car also appeared in 1970s and 1980s media, such as the
hit series "Banacek" starring George Peppard.
