Small world!
I got this article Saturday as well, very cool.The first half reads as if they are describing the Pantera.I went to visit a customer Monday who saw the image on my screen.Turns out they guy just moved here from Michigan where he used to work for Roush!Says the article is mostly correct, but disputes the V8, claims both Pantera based mules had SHO V6.Can certainly see Pantera styling, but Ghia concept looks kind of like a 300ZX rear-ended a Fiero.

Short but interesting read about the Ford GN34 mid-engined sports car
of the mid-80's that lost the budget race to the Ford Explorer.
The article states that Jack Roush Engineering built 2 prototypes on
modified DeTomaso Panteras, one with an SHO V-6 and the other a tuned
V-8 driving through the ZF transaxle.
