ADRNLN was Ringbrothers' most ambitious build at the time of its unveiling at the 2013 SEMA Show: a 1971 De Tomaso Pantera that received more than 5,000 hours of custom fabrication. Nearly every body panel was hand-shaped; the body was smoothed, widened, and given carbon-fiber accents throughout.
The build was created in collaboration with Nike's innovation skunk-works team, with the partnership expressed through waffle-sole-patterned pedals and other design details referencing Nike's Air sole technology. Power came from a Corvette-sourced LS3 V8 producing 600 hp.
ADRNLN sold at auction for $330,000 and was subsequently featured in a Petersen Automotive Museum exhibit alongside a 1971 Pantera that had belonged to Elvis Presley, cementing the build's place in restomod history.
