I wouldn't be surprised if he finds a taker at close to that price. The price may attract a buyer that can't afford a finished Pantera (but really wants to get into one) and be able to work at it as they can afford. I have recently looked at a couple 68 390 fastback mustang projects that don't look much different than this at a similar price and often don't bring as much when finished.
Of course in the long run a finished car is often a better investment, but sometimes those initial funds just can't be acquired. Reminds me of a fixer upper house, I still regret purchasing...
Wise investment maybe not, but if someone really wants to get into the market they may be willing to take the plunge and hopefully be handy with metal work.
The seller is a friend of mine. He has finished a lot of Pantera's and sold them I think he is getting out of that now. He has a lot of cars that he is working on for the future. If I could only talk him into selling me a car he has of the same make and model that I sold to someone else years ago. My old 68 Cuda formula S fastback. Jay if you read this I am retiring soon and need a project!!
