Reply to "Seized Pantera in Arizona"

Chuck is correct. Except it is White with Tan Interior. And thanks Chuck for all your phone calls back and forth getting it on the road again. It's appreciated my friend.

# 07198 belongs to me and is with me after a year of major hassles. It was brought into to the US in January 2001 by me. It was restored by me over the next 18 months and major costs. (as we all know, nothing is cheap with Pantera's)

In fact, we are both in Albq. NM at the present time visiting Ron Norman and helping him get his Pantera on the road for this weekend. What a driver she is.... :-))

It was first seized by Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his personal Goon Squad without warrant or due process over a political vendetta in June of 2002. When he was threatened with a civil suit by me and my civil attorney he turned it over to customs.

What it and I have been through after that is not for posting on the internet. But believe me, this original GT5 is alive, well, and the sprit lives and WILL go on with this car.

After sitting in a Customs outdoor storage facility for almost a year, I have to redo some things on it, but I am very happy to have the chance to do these things again.

It's my baby :-)) And God knows I suffered enough labor pains to say so.

It is not for sale and if I have my way about it, it will never be again.
