Hi Kieth
I must say you are very diplomatic in your response to some of the replies you have received, you are willing to put YOUR money down and take a chance on purchasing a Pantera for resale a somewhat risky business and and you have asked the club for advice and many have deemed it their place to be your moral compass instead of giving you the advice you have asked for, I think we all know virtually the whole world was built on this principal and not just the States, as long as you do your homework and offer a FAIR price your friend will have no problem with this deal since YOU are taking all the risk and remember he doesn't have to sell anything to you if he feels your trying to take advantage in any way, oh and to answer your question just go on every site you can find and before long you will know exactly what the cars worth and when you decide to sell you can take any price you like or not.
Good Luck.
