The Factory had a pretty logical and systematic tool and manufacturing approach to the making of these wheels, while true they probably mixed a few during the transition between the making of new Aluminum tooling and the earlier wood pattern tools, the Early wheels could not have been put on late Pantera's and vice versa that we see all the time today. 
I think we can attribute all the miss matched wheels to Gary Hall, he sent me a mismatched wheel then a mismatched reconditioned set back in the 80's.

       Great point Julian! There are just too many mismatched sets on people's
       cars to indicate otherwise. And we all know the quality control that
       DeTomaso is known for.

       With such subtle differences what's the chance many of these car
       actually left the factory with mismatched wheels? Realistically how
       many owners would switch out wheels or have another set or different
       spare to mix up?
       If that is the case should one just accept this as another small
       idiosyncrasy of the Pantera and live with it, the car is only original
       once!

       Mike is so right. My car had three wheels that matched and one didn't.
       I was sure I knew what wheel to buy so they would all match. I bought a
       fifth wheel and when I got it home realized it doesn't match any of my
       existing wheels. Look very closely, the differences can be
       subtle....and for me, confusing. Mike wrote a great reference article
       that explains the differences, and Jack DeRyke had a great article in
       this month's newsletter on the 10"campy. Thanks to both of you!

       had never noticed).

       better. Values have been going up in recent years as people are finally
       realizing the benefits of stock wheels and returning cars to stock
       appearance.
