Possible new venue for Team Pantera. 
Speed Channel had a program "Dunlop Targa New Zealand 2005" appears to be an ORR type event with multiple days &  multiple stages.  There was a yellow Pre-L, Pantera midway through the program. No mention of the Pantera or of the Driver/Navigator in the narrative. Upon doing a Google search of the event results indicated Peter Cullen/Jenny Chisholm were the Driver/Navigator. Do any of the forum participants have further info on this car? Below is a link with more event info.
Event runs through the country roads like high speed rally event with timed stages. Does not appear to have restrictions on car/engine configurations or modifications. Competitors are limited to a fixed number of tires (6?) for all the days/stages. Competitors choose a compound for the entire event and must run that compound for entire event. Also if one exceeds a 200KM/HR speed limit one will incur a 5minute time addition, if additional tires are required additional time penalties will be added. 

Car # 474 - De Tomaso Pantera - Peter Cullen/Jenny Chisholm
