Mid engine, easy to stretch, and relatively easy to drop V8 in.
Lots of people create their own chassis though. Also a lot of the high end kits use tubulars.

I believe that you are referring to the Detamosa Pantera. I believe that they were made until the early 1980's, but I could be wrong. Also, I beleive that they use a Ford motor.

Panteras were made until '93. Yes they used Ford engines(351 and later a 302). I don't see the resemblance to any Lambo.

Thanks for the info. I can see a resemblance to a countach in this pic.
