50 years with Ford power that is.

Pantera celebration in Dearborn this fall to celebrate. Unfortunately, the date coincides with the Goodwood Revival. ;-((

That was actually last fall, 2022. Looks like it was a good time; wish I could’ve been there with mine.

Looks like a really great time. A lot like Rally X.

All those Panteras on the road must have been quite a sight! My son took our Pantera to the Ford 100. Wish we could have had it there for this event.

Love the picture of the Pantera parked next to the new GT. To me, the Pantera looks like a true and timeless Supercar. $10k in 1972!

Wasn't there a 1971 model, with round door locks?

Would it be possible for Ford to collaborate with Detomaso to build a modern day version of the Pantera like was done with the Ford GT40? If so I would buy one 😻

Right. Those early “pushbutton” door release Panteras are a little extra-special to some collectors. Yes, 1971 was the first model year for Panteras, which is why that post, and the date of that event, was a bit confusing.
