I have seen this video and it was amusing but I thought it was a virtually
meaningless comparison. The Ring Bros state that the only part on their
"creation" that is still a Pantera is a small ( 2ft ) section of the roof.
So it's like comparing a vintage Pantera to any other modern custom built
car which is a totally irrelevant comparison. The one meaningful point that
I thought the video made was just how awesome a vintage Pantera is , even
when compared to a modern LS3 powered ,efi computer controlled engine, car!
The GTS comes off looking cool and performing well while the "thing" looks
more then a little ridiculous, the Ring Bros didn't bother to install seat
belts in their "improved" interpretation of the Pantera.
