I've wanted a Pantera ever since I saw one in the back lot of the "Auto Toy Store" in Fort Lauderdale (1991 I think). A guy had traded it in on a red Ferrari. Black on black, big flares, delta wing, immaculate engine compartment (smelled new, looked like a drag car, the size of those rear wheel tubs!) and shook the earth when the guy fired it up. Asking price was $35K, told mucho $ invested. I think that car would add much to the quality of life, do the heart good to own and drive something that sounds like that! Lift weights, build your body like you would your engine. Barry Harward '85 VMax (brutal acceleration) '641/2 Mustang (289 4V, owned since 15) '90 300ZX twin turbo (when you need a nice car) '85 20' Supra inboard (351 just like Pantera) still on the Pantera sideline BTW, just read Illustrated De Tomaso buyer's guide / Rob de la Rive Box, Matthew L. Stone and now know that there is no such thing as a Pantera GTS 5 (email name I set up for this mailing list, too much volume to keep getting at work :-) ) ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ==============================================================================
