Reply to "Original and Modified (A gentleman's discussion)"

Possibly value has much to do with modification.

Not so long ago the Pantera was a car that many people could afford to buy, prices were static for a long time, and the type of engine proved very good for power improvements.

Other cars of similar performance to the Pantera, the Ferrari, Maserati, and Lamborghini brigade, were not so easy to modify and were far more expensive.

Now Pantera prices are on the rise, only recently this question of originality has cropped up.

I think some folk myself included prefer a more or less standard Pantera perhaps with better seats and a handbrake mod, simply because there weren't too many made in the first place and another lost to the go faster and make it wider gods seems a pity.

But at the end of the day its your car, and your entitled to do what you will with it.

And good luck to you all.
