Ford Mustang mechanicals make up the engine, transmission and rear end, including a 225-horsepower 5.0-liter V-8 shifted via a Borg-Warner T-5 five-speed manual transmission. An independent front suspension and solid rear axle complete the package. The car was launched to the public in 1992. Interestingly, the Costin chassis never underpinned the Panoz Roadster: Early cars used a TIG welded stainless steel tubular frame along with an extensive use of CNC machined and stamped parts. The first 10 cars were hand-assembled with a seven-man crew; additional production personnel were later added.
This pristine example’s odometer displays just 6,128 miles at time of cataloguing. According to previous research, the Panoz factory confirms this is the second of six cars built in 1994 of the total 44 produced between 1992 and 1995. Notably, it is the only one built in 1994 in green with a tan leather interior which includes a matching snap-on tonneau cover. In addition, it is equipped with power four-wheel disc brakes, Traction-Lok differential, six-digit analog speedometer, and 16-inch alloy wheels fitted with BF Goodrich radial tires.
