I guess it depends on the enthusiast or collector.  I've seen other brands like Shelby's being restored from little more than a serial number.  There are still guys there discussing the Playboy Shelby and also looking for Jim Morrison's car. I will say though just as old Carroll did himself, their enthusiasts really promote the brand. Pantera's still remain behind in that facet.

I think there is still significance in what the car was, and although it is nothing of its former self, I am glad that it has survived and has not been lost or crushed.

We have service records for many years on that car. It just sold a couple months ago. Guy Anderson owned it in Atlanta, 2nd owner may he RIP. He is the first to have it painted, said he couldn't be caught driving a pink car. A week later it wore a heavy metallic dark blue Acrylic Enamel. It's still present in fuse area, carpet area, back panel overspray. He wrote a bit about it in Autoweek Magazine, back in the day, along with other Pantera related articles. Great guy that Guy :-)

Remember this one? It was his also. Sold recently relatively speaking:
