Pantera # 7207 - information wanted

I looked in the Pantera registry. Very nice car!!
go to www.provamo.com

The information there is what I know about the car. What I wonder is if anyone knows of previous owners and the story of 7207? it was black for 7 years ago and the car was exchanged for another car for about 7 years ago. .

Thanks

Freddy

It was not easy to find the history of 7207 some who knows how to find out, who the car has been registered former at the DMV?

on a trip I had in the USA in 2010 I met a nice guy from the police. and he had all the data in the policecar of owners of a car I checked up. someone who knows one and can get him to check up on this?


appreciate all the help.
thanks.

In the U.S anyway, a number of stalkers used license plates and then-public records to locate owners of certain cars, with (in a couple of cases) tragic results. So yes- the police here have such data but the general public is barred from access to DMV records, license data and the rest since the late '80s. That's also one reason why commercial car records are sparse when one purchases them. Makes data collecting on classic car histories much more difficult but protects the public. And of course some owners put their personal privacy above public info even when owning such a showy car as the Pantera.
Your #7207 has an unlisted number in the old POCA serial number listings done in the early '80s. This is certainly one good reason for a car club roster of cars, serial numbers and condition data but without addresses.

Thanks for the reply bosswrench
strange that nobody knows about this car. The car was with Hall Pantera for 7-8 years ago and had done a bigg job /upgrading. But Hall has no papers from the time. everything was thrown when they went over to the electronic register.
I so like to have all information about what was performed on the motor / upgrades. so I do not have to take it apart to find this out: (
And it would be fun to see how many owners who have had the car.
is it that I just have to give up trying to find out something? or is there any chance?

All I have is the ebay info from back in 2004 when it was for sale in Scottsdale AZ, and all the photos from back then. Overall it looked nice exterior and interior, athough I thought the engine bay could have been better (probably all fixed up by now in the paint conversion to new color). I can email you all the photos if you want. Maybe contact the email or phone shown in the ebay add below, maybe they can provide some info. Someone told me at the time it had VIN issues, although it looked like a nice car.

In 2004 I see he pullled it from ebay before it sold for some reason, so there was no final price listed. But before that he had it on ebay once before and it bid to $34K with 7 day left. I will email you all the photos. Get your email box ready, there are about 50 photos or so.

does anyone know this guy? 420 North Townsend Blvd., Montrose, CO 81401 · 970-250-7238

he sold my car 7207 for a guy he knew in 2004. his name is Steve and he is apparently the son of a major shareholder in the American airline? I wish I got a hold of Steve and got the rest of the story of the car. if anyone knows Roger and would like to ask him for me if he has a family name of Steve and maybe an address or phone number for steve. thank you so much for all your help.
