I finally saw one!!!! My 1st Pantera sighting!

I have been in love w/ Panteras since I was 7 years old when my father bought me the Hotwheels 1/18 car for my birthday. Over time I forgot about these beasts and concentrated on Mustangs since my father has a '69 GT fastback, but my interest peaked again last year when I saw a beautiful black '73 for sale in Hemmings. Ever since then I have been Pantera crazy and almost made a purchase for one from a user on this forum (sorry forgot his name) but that fell through. Anyways I never thought I would see a Pantera here in Evansville IN, but last Tuesday I found like 13 four leaf clovers (I'm superstitious and believe in these sort of things lol) and on my way home I saw a ridiculously nice maroon '72 and I had to get out and ask the guy for pics, but my camera wouldn't work (I know what a moment) I talked to the guy for a little while and he said he bought it 2 years ago and did a full restoration on it but I did not catch his name. I was surprised but he told me he wasn't the only Pantera in the area and a fella in Henderson KY has 2 of them. Anyways, I was floored by the sound of his cat and amazed by the size of the car, so tiny. Hopefully I will be able to purchase one of these babies in the near future, my only problem is that I'm on a limited income and can only go as high as $30,000. I'd love to find a fixer upper so I can do a project w/ my dad and get him back into cars, so If anyone has any info on Panteras for sale or any in my area, can you give me a heads up. Thanks in advanced.
