Group 5 Pantera

Original 1984 DeTomaso factory GT5 Pantera, chassis #9313, converted to full race Group 5 “tribute”.

 

Far rarer than the factory DeTomaso Group 4 Panteras, there were only a few original Group 5 Panteras ever built. This “re-creation” has been designed and modified based on the originally homologated Sala-Marverti Group 5 Pantera and the Hugh Kleinpeter IMSA GTX Pantera.

​

Tube frame front/rear sections are integrated into full safety cage built beyond the original Gr 5 standards. Front/Rear composite body sections mount to tubular sub-frames for light weight and facilitating quick maintenance. (Molds for front/rear clips included.)

​

Options to complete the car available include:​

​

• (2) engines from ex-LeMans ADA racing Pantera (need rebuild)

• Motec ECU, Ignition Expander, relays and full chassis and engine wiring harnesses

• Original ZF gearbox & bellhousings

• (2) Polished stainless Tech-Craft mufflers with custom mounts

• (2) Willwood 6-piston GN calipers and disks (new)

• (2) AP 6-piston brake calipers

• (1) set of new Kodiak race wheels (will be built to your specs)

• Multiple other wheel/tire options including Gotti or Jongbloed wheels

• Set of molds to convert body to late model Pantera Si

• Many misc parts including: engine/trans mounts, sway bars, spare suspension parts, etc.

 

Aside from the original Sala Group 5 and Kleinpeter IMSA GTX, this is one of the most modified race chassis while still being based on a production Pantera chassis. It goes far beyond the changes made for the more common Group 4 racing Panteras and with improved safety and performance. A unique option to race alongside epic Gr 5 cars such as the Porsche 935 but at a fraction of the cost!
