After 17 years, my Pantera is going up for sale. I love the car, but priorities have shifted. I'd like to avoid putting it up on bringatrailer.com , and deal direct with a buyer, and save them some money. But I may go that route at some point. Asking $85K. Car is located in Tulsa, OK. Mike Drew has been in it several times and can vouch for it.
It was a featured Pantera International car in Fall 2000, with the former owner, whom I bought it from. PI used to have part of the article online, but it got removed over the years. Have to use the wayback machine to see that, but it's a good little article with some good pics.
