quote:I think you're right about the Campis. But I must admit (sacralege?) that I like it better than the old oxidized magnesium, or the new polished alloy, looks. IMO, the only thing cool about the Campis are that they are original, making them black is the only way I'd ever keep them on my car. (No offense to anyone who loves them on their own car).
Those Campy wheels may as well be an inexpensive set of steel wheels, because that's what they look like when painted black like this - lose all the detail. Its like spray painting your wife's 10-carat diamond wedding ring black - covers all the beauty of the cut and design. I prefer the original argent silver on my Campys.
Looks like a nice car, but agree with others about the nose, price, and degree of restoration and modification needed to justify such a price. Still, it's a Pantera, so it looks bitchen none the less!
