Shows how vulnerable our cars really are.
Oh well another one gone.
Or great project for a high school or a technical college, you sure would learn the trades rebuilding that !
I agree with your statement about how rust prone a Pantera can be, but this looks like a car that has seen some winter driving in salt country and then was parked in some field or junk yard after it was unsafe to drive anymore. I can't believe anyone would even consider trying to rebuild this car and I question the value of it as a parts car at the current bid price. It looks like the front fender near the rusted out headlite bucket has a thick layer of Bondo. At least the seller is not trying to hide the condition of the car, but I would hate to see what the underside of this thing looks like.
I would like to believe that if someone is willing to spend over $10K on that pile of junk, then it has to make a good Pantera worth a lot more than the current market value seems to be now.
