ADRNLN has Pantera bones with Nike skunkworks know-how

ADRNLN has Pantera bones with Nike skunkworks know-how

ADRNLN, the car pictured in the rendering above, is based on a 1971 De Tomaso Pantera that had seen better days. But in its transformation to its soon-to-be-revealed second act, Ringbrothers, a custom car shop and parts maker, and Nike's innovation skunkworks team have given the De Tomaso a new lease on life. It's going to be a vibrant life, too – courtesy of a 600-horsepower Chevrolet Corvette LS3 V8, modern five-speed transmission and custom body panels. The only thing the Italian-American sports car is missing is a Ford V8, which power stock Pantera models, but we're not going to complain about the car's Bowtie engine transplant.
