Panther Kallista.
What to Check Before Buying.
The Panther Kallista is a hand-built British roadster produced between 1982 and 1990, combining 1930s styling with modern Ford mechanicals. Most examples used the 2.8-litre Ford Cologne V6, though some later models featured the 2.9-litre version. With around 150 cars built in total, finding one is rare, and finding one without hidden issues is rarer still. Prospective buyers should scrutinise the hand-crafted aluminium bodywork, ash frame integrity, and the condition of Ford running gear that may now be difficult to source.
