Suggest you become a member of PI and POCA and that you join the local POCA chapter up there to gain more knowledge and experience with the cars. Also subscribe to the POCA Email list forum. http://realbig.com/detomaso/. Also PanteraPlace.com and banzairunnerpantera.com/
There cars for sale on the PI motorsports site, Chuck Melton's site, http://geocities.com/provamo72/, Ebay, Hemmings, etc.
When you identify a car that you're interested in, use the resources in both forums to have a knowledgable person look over the car. You'll be surprised how much the members of both forums know about individual cars. There a lots of expensive gotchas that can be avoided if you know what to look for. Lasty, I'd have a mechanic look it over as well before you buy. And keep a reserve for fix ups once you've bought a car. They are after all 30+ years old.
Take you time and enjoy.
