Look at the pictures here to see why the last buyer might not have completed the transaciton

Yeah...that guy emailed me and said he would take 18k for it.. Nice pic link!
Shows it sold for $19,500. Maybe the buyer backed out?

Garth, I know this is a terrible thing for me to say, but thank you so very much for those pictures. It makes me feel a lot better about my car. Since I own my car I sometimes see only what is wrong with it. When I see pictures like that I feel tons better about my car.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.
At least the seller was honest enough to take all of those pictures.
Looks like a good candidate for a tube chassis racecar. Or possibly a donor for a mold. I can see it now (wavy lines form as Blaine drifts into a dreamlike state). A full carbon fiber honeycomb monocoque Pantera with slight liberties taken to some of the aerodynamic blemishes. 1500 LBS with a 700 HP aluminum 4 cammer.(Blaine wakes up, gives head a shake and realizes unless he miraculously wins the lottery which he never plays this isnt going to happen). Sorry for the ramble. A man can dream cant he.

Actually that might not be as impossible as you would think! The guy who made my GT40 ( http://www.race-car-replicas.com/ )has Pantera body molds and has shown some interest in offering a Pantera replica made to fit the aluminum monocoque chassis he uses for the Lola and GT40 kits.By the way, the light blue GT40 on the MK1 page is mine!

Where did he get the molds?

Ron I looked at that sight last weekend and I hada question. When he says a roller chasis, does that mean all that stuff is already put together and all you have to do is put an engine in, or does all that stuff comein a great big box andyou gotta put every single thing together???????
This car is located very close to my home. I have not had time to go and look at in person, but as mentioned already, the pictures look very ugly.
This car would cost an enormous amount of $$$ to restore (properly). Best bet is someone who wants a parts car, or build a race car out of it.
If it doesn't sell soon, I will go down and make a low ball offer to take it off their hands. Could always use a parts car
