    I love the Pantera, always have. I could just squeeze into one if I had drop floorplans but I just about have to crawl into it. The crawl makes it a lot less interesting these days.

    what size have you got on the rear?
     
  11. 245/45/16 front & 335/35/17. They are Dunlop's. Last I checked a matching set is no longer available, of any brand.

    Hi

    We have just had a small delivery of these

    https://www.longstonetyres.co.uk/225-50vr15-pirelli-cinturato-p7.html

    they have been out of stock for a while. I suggest don't faff around. buy what you can when you can, supply is still a little erratic since the pandemic and that Russian idiots performance. By the middle of next year we should have pretty much everything on line, and in stock, but for now batches are small and inconsistent. but for you lucky guys we do actually have your rear on the shelf fopr now the 285/50R15 Cinturato P7 built specially for you. (the 285/40-15 P7 and 345/35-15 P7 coming soon)

    View attachment 3608031

    this picture gives you a little insight into the glamourous world of classic tyre dealing. That is the lovely Tom unloading the truck. the other pair of legs you can see actually belong to Pirelli's truck driver.
    On the right of the truck you can see our badly organised machine shop, where we make bits for our cars.
    On the left of the truck you can see our stash of old inner tube boxes we use for rapping up Borrani wheels when they have been fitted and balanced with tyres. Then there is my vintage ramp and my 1924 Delage. The Delage is on the ramp because it is being serviced having driven to Bologna and back (check out our face book https://www.facebook.com/longstonetyres/ we crossed the Alps twice. However) on returning and giving it a service i found one of the rear leaf springs has snapped off its locating pin. not ideal.

    We will be receiving a new delivery of the 345/35 R15 P7 on the 12 of December.

    https://www.longstonetyres.co.uk/classic-car-tyres/de-tomaso/pantera.html

    i beleive we will get the 285/40-15 P7 early January.

    However if you need a set, i recomend buying them as soon as you can. i think there will be a big rush on the 345 when they come in as they have been out of stock for a while.

    Apologies for all this taking so long. Production has been a nghtmare over the last few years.

    Oh yes we still have a few of the 285/50R15 P7 in stock for now, as is the 225/50R15 P7 front.
