Man, one of the cool things of when I was selling JD equipment, I got to see inside a lot of barns and buildings. 2 guys, who I got to know well, did a lot of business had 2 of the most elite of the elite you can have. One guy, a Hemi GTX, bright red on black, and black convertible top. Want to say 68? He bought it new in High School. It had 22k miles on it. You could eat off the front crossmember since the day it was built. I know where it is, where it's going and part of it's future. Wouldn't be surprised to find out it's a big hidden gem. Being a Mopar head, one of those things I'll never forget. He does take it to the local car shows every year. The other should be a wonder of the world. a 69 Chevelle SS BB black on white, white SS stripes. Again, he bought it in HS. Sits on a frame lift in a temp controlled room HAHA! Last I saw it, couple years ago, around 11k miles on it. I forget the details, but it's one of not many something.
I think it's the old TV and movie cop shows made me fall in love with Fury's and Satellite's

I’m thinking Pantera. I worked for a guy when I was in college that had one.

we had a guy who was doing Pantera's locally in a shop in town. Doesn't look like a Pantera. We saw a lot of them around for many years till he closed up shop -
It's got the rectangle hood, and fender badges like a Ferrari. But that color is odd for a Ferrari~and they're really funny about colors.

I think it’s an earlier model Pantera. The weird triangle vent-looking thing by the rear wing window is what gives it away for me. I could be wrong, but without research that’s my guess.

FWIW, I was a valet at a high-end country club when I was in high school back in the early 90’s. A guy there named Rick Cooper, who owned a couple of the larger strip clubs in Denver, had a Ferrari 308 (like the Magnum P.I. One) in a dark metallic maroon that was close to this color. I loved parking that car for him, he was a cool guy and a good tipper too!
 
My Father had that exact Pantera when I was a young child. I’ll see if I can find the actual pic

OK, I held off, but I googled it~ yeah, that's why the color wasn't right for me~ it's not a Ferrari :D those side windows are the ringer. And early 70's.
 
1967 GTO

Always wanted one ever since my older brother had one growing up. He beat that damn. Ruined it. I tracked it down years later and the owner wouldn't sell it. He knew what he had and refurbished it.
