Reply to "'72 for sale w/reassigned vin and no tag"

Ford paperwork states that Vin # 7380 was the last 'officially' imported '74 Pantera, so this number is is very likely from a gray-market/Euro-sold Pantera, one of the 150-or-so 'left-over' chassis in the factory when Ford abandoned the project and sold the remains back to DeTomaso. As such, I wouldn't be surprised at anything in its records. Just be very sure you're not looking at what's called a "splitter" in the car biz- a compliation of two or more wrecks. Even then, if done professionally, it could be OK if the price reflects its dodgy history. But it needs VERY careful checking of the body/chassis before writing a check. Most Euro Panteras had features not found on Ford-imported cars, which could be interesting.
