Fellow Pantera owners:



Every time I go into a  store which specializes in car models,

especially Bburago, Maisto etc. I see dozens of car models including

many that will never see the light of day as real cars including the new

Ford GT90. Everytime I ask about a Pantera model, I think they are going

to call Mall Security and have me thrown out!



How do we as Pantera owners get Bburago or some other high quality model

maker to do us up a Pantera, preferably in several color choices? Do we

need to give them a giant prepaid large order? Virtually every Ferrari

can be had as a 1:18 or 1:24 model, even the low volume obscure ones.



I WANT A 1:18 OR LARGER PANTERA MODEL!!!   I know there are some great

plastic models around from PI, Gary Hall and Jim Demmick, but how do we

as a group get a company to make us a metal diecast model of our beloved

Pantera?



Any ideas folks?
