Reply to "Pantera #1020 - Pushbutton on Ebay in Portugal"

The VIN should be: THPNLL01020.

It is already in the Registry, with pics from some time ago.

Being the 20th (or so) car finished, it is naturally (built in) 1971. However cars in Europe are listed by their (First sold / or) first registered date. So this car could have been first sold in 1972. (There is an early 71 with a "date" of 1974 for example.)

This is why the Registry field for the date is the date of MANUFACTURE not first sold or first titled.

In the last 2 years or so there was a Pantera for sale, that had never been "First Titled". I guess one could call it ~new, or a dealer demo. Hmmm, a 35 year old new car!
Anyway...
This car has what appears to be all the typical features of the (very) early cars. I would suspect there is a rear deck release in the driver's "B" pillar.

Thanks for pointing this out.
