Reply to "Pantera #7001 - eBay - WARNING"

FYI for future potential buyers of this car. I also took a look at this car, and noticed a number of trouble spots. I only had a few minutes to look it over, and no one at the yard claimed to know anything about the car. The e-bay seller wasn't there.

-Driver's side front fender, near top of wheel well opening was wavy;
-Cracked filler was noticeable where windshield pillar meets top of drivers fender;
-Paint overspray was noticeable on windshield weatherstripping on drivers side;
-Driver's mirror was swapped out and 2 holes remained from the original mirror;
-Drivers rear quarter panel appeared pushed in at the body line & a silver-dollar sized piece of filler had cracked off exposing bare metal of the panel;
-Passengers rear quarter was wavy/bumpy at the body line;
-Front of passengers door and rear of passenger front fender had rust bubbles;
-Drivers fender side marker light missing lense--I know this is a simple item, but ya gotta wonder how it got damaged in the first place;
-On the inside the shifter emblem was gone and the shift gates had been cut out--thought that was different;
-Looking in the wheel wells and under the car you didn't see any obvious damage, but as mentioned everything was under-coated and the car is low to the ground;
-Tires, rims and exhaust looked good;
-Interior looked complete and in good condition.

I'm not an expert, and definitely not a Pantera expert, but I've been burned on used cars and have learned a few times the hard way, and usually signs of visible body work indicate alot more hiding underneath, or a best a crummy repair. Just an opinion.
