It’s time I got serious about selling my Pantera. Compared to what I looked at when I bought the one I have, it’s in excellent condition. I am happy to take additional photos if you like. The ones posted at the following link were taken over the weekend. The car runs incredibly well and it will be hard to part with it. Everything listed below as new was replaced by me within the past 10 years. NO RUST. NO BUBBLES. Just a few stone chips because I drive it.
The car has not seen rain in 10 years. It gets washed once a year and it’s covered in a garage when not on the road. While the car was painted 10 years ago, it’s not showing any signs of age. If you are looking for a car you can jump in and drive any time and always count on getting you home, this is it.
Like most Pantera owners, I have tens of thousands invested that I will never see a return on my investment for but I have recovered ten times my investment in smiles. I will certainly miss all the times I have been stopped at the store, gas station, by police etc… because they didn't know what the car was or had always wanted one of their own… All Pantera's are cool and you will certainly have a lot of fun in this one!! I will consider driving the car to meet you within a reasonable distance because it will give me one more excuse to blast up the highway. :-)
Drop Box links to Photos - If you are interested, I can send more after we talk. Price is $46,900
