Down at Valero...

This isn't an image of the actual car, but it's the same model; the De Tomaso Pantera.
The first 1971 Panteras were powered by a Ford 351 in³ (5.8 L) V8 which produced 330 hp (246 kW). The ZF transaxle used in the Mangusta was also used for the Pantera. Another Italian exotic that shares the ZF transaxle is the Maserati Bora. Power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes and rack and pinion steering were standard equipment. The 1971 Pantera could accelerate to 60 mph (97 km/h) in 5.5 seconds according to Car and Driver.
