Today I went and looked at the red '73 that Memory Lane Motors has. I talked with one of the buyers, Jim, who also has a early '72 L model, white with 33K miles. It is #4714. I went to his shop and saw the car, what a beauty. Original paint, original carpets and seats, original front tires. He has some extras that will go with the car, such as Ansa mufflers, some literature, etc. It has the stock radiator as well as a Fluidyne unit and all new coolant hoses. He is the second owner and the car has always been in the Seattle area. He wants $29,750.00, firm. This is one of the nicest originals I have ever seen. He can be reached at (206)762-1036 or e-mail at nursenanny@hotmail.com.

In response to your inquiry on the red '73L at Memory Lane, It was originally a white car, supposedly Hall Pantera restored the car. I called him and he was very vague and not very friendly when it came to asking him questions about the car. I saw restoration pictures of the car and it has had new rear wheelhouses, and the front valance is somewhat rusty. The paint is okay, basecoat/clearcoat, which has been color sanded, probably when it was first done. The paint is also showing some shrinkage and I believe the quarters have been resprayed at a later time. (Blend lines on the upper pillars.) The doors could have been blocked out better. A lot of money was spent on the undercarriage, such as shocks, brakes, steering, etc. It is definetly not a trailer queen, but a nice appearing car that would be a fun driver. The car is set up for nitrous with very nice plumbing. There is a plaque on the dash that says 'built by Hall Pantera for Heidi Krieg. 0-60 in 3.7 seconds.' Gary Hall knew nothing about this when I asked him. The car is #4887. The original white car that I saw is light years ahead of this one as far as condition goes. If someone wants me to look at the either car, I would be glad to,I am about 10 minutes away from either. I don't consider myself an expert on these but if this helps, I used to do paint and bodywork for the Ferrari dealership for over 10 years and had extremely picky customers.
