Default Panther - Astro 1

When I was a kid my father was travelling a lot around the world. He usually bought me college- and T-shirts on the airports while waiting for the airplanes. I specially remember one from Houston-Texas, that I was really proud of.
Coming back from one of his journeys he gave me the Astro 1, that I always thought of as a James Bond car.
What is the relationship between the Panther and the Astro 1 ?

Panther-pic from John R. Hooper´s book.

Very Anders..
The Astro series was Chevrolets Concept car in the 1960's & 70's.There was an ASTRO II & III as well.I have a plethera of material about it.Press kits,Banners,Displays,etc.
Most of it from Chevrolet Photographic & Merchandising.
O.J.Simpson & Jean Claude Killy were also featured with it at Carshows & functions.
