The Pantera was always sold with Ford engines like the 351 Windsor. In America, if you wanted a De Tomaso, you had to go to your local Lincoln-Mercury dealer to pick one up.

In the states, the cars were often called a Ford Pantera. Michael France drove it for about 17,000 miles — it has 31,600 — until he removed its interior and engine.

Powered by a Ford engine, the Pantera was built by De Tomaso from 1971-1992 (though it was only sold in the U.S. until 1974), and it utilizes a mid-engine design featuring a steel monocoque chassis.
