Reply to "Pantera #7206 - GTS"

By the way - wandering around somewhat aimlessly from subject to subject, another data point for what a Pavesi targa may be worth...

Here's a picture from 1998 or 1999 of me sitting in Roland Jaekel's Pavesi convesion GTS. It was for sale back then for $30,000 USD. The engine was nothing special and smoked a little, if I remember correctly, but the engine is the least of the issues... the car itself was rust-free and was one of the 14 (14? 8? I forget) targas built.

I was sorely tempted as I thought it was priced low based on the rarity of the targas. I also thought it would be cool to have a targa Pantera, but I was already beginning to think of buying a GT5-S, so I passed.

Roland later bought the last set of factory GT5-S panels and converted it to a 5-S because he couldn't find any takers at the time despite a rather attractive price.

Last year Roland had a rather high speed crash with it and I don't know its whereabouts, or if the car was scrapped.
