Few Mangusta were produced – about 400 – and obviously a lot less survive: this is a representative of those survived, unknown until today. Unknown since it seems that this de Tomaso has been locked in a garage since 1976, obviously the only reason that comes to mind is that at the time the car… Read More Rest in pieces/3: 1970 De Tomaso Mangusta
We have to admit that, although it is not the first time I see a De Tomaso Deauville, I have only now noticed an interesting detail. The detail in question concerns the opening of the engine hood: if you look at the photos posted by the seller, you will find that the bonnet, hinged at… Read More Tilting bumper: 1972 De Tomaso Deauville
We have seen many De Tomaso Pantera for sale in recent years, but never so black as this one. The reason is certainly because this is a newly restored car but not enough: black is the most difficult color to apply on a body (ask any coachbuilder) because the black color also highlights the smallest… Read More Pitch-black: 1972 De Tomaso Pantera
Nature is varied and in fact, even among the big cats, there are albino ones, exactly like this Pantera. White on the outside and black on the inside: a combination not really common as many of these cars were ordered in bold colors (as if the car itself did not look sufficiently aggressive) and in… Read More Black and white: 1971 De Tomaso Pantera
I know what you are thinking: why change a Pantera GTS in this way? Well, this car is the first GTS built and has been modified by De Tomaso factory itself. Obviously we are reporting what the seller writes: this is the first Pantera GTS built (chassis #7427) and as proof of this the seller… Read More Number one: 1975 De Tomaso Pantera GTS
Well, here we are dealing with a typical case of “Hey, how about selling that wreck sitting for thirty years in the garage?” In this specific case, the wreck is a De Tomaso Pantera, probably an “L” model. The patient’s condition does not seem very serious but surely there are many areas on which to… Read More Make offer: 1971 De Tomaso Pantera L
Just like the seller says, it is not easy to find a Pantera in its original, clean configuration: most Panteras have been modified in order to make them look “bad”. This car however, it is said to have been pampered all its life including a major restoration in 2002 when the body has been stripped… Read More Original configuration: 1972 De Tomaso Pantera
I barely remeber the Deauville because my father had it (for one week only) when I was younger than 10: I however remember how luxurious were the interiors and how huge was the torque of its 350 c.i. Ford engine. The Deauville, designed by Tom Tjaarda, was made to compete with Mercedes and Jaguar on their own playground… Read More Muscle luxury sedan: 1976 De Tomaso Deauville
This barn find (as the seller says) Pantera GT is clearly a U.S. spec. car, so it has the common and ugly D.O.T. approved bumpers and much dust everywhere. Actually the seller is Gas Monkey Garage, protagonist of the reality series “Fast ‘n’ Loud” on Discovery Channel. We agree with the seller about the interior:… Read More Fast ‘n’ Loud: 1974 De Tomaso Pantera GT
Yes, the seller says that this 1972 De Tomaso Mangusta has 14,000 kms and one owner from new. Indeed this car is stunning whatever your eyes can see: it’s in exceptional conditions and it has a very ’70’s (and very rare) lime green paint along with the original black plates. The seller says also that… Read More 8,600 miles from new + one owner: 1972 De Tomaso Mangusta
