[DeTomaso] 1974 Wrecked Pantera Body for sale

[Dennis Yogi]

I am in the process of parting out a 1974 Pantera. After this is done, I
will be selling off the stripped body as a whole unit.

The pantera was involved in a front end collision. The front end is totaled.
The shock from the front end has tweaked the car to the rear of the doors.
This is what I see as salvageable:

Drivers Door   Small dent to the lower rear area looks easily repairable.
Comes with all windows, tracks, and motor

Passenger Door   Doesn't look damaged at all. Comes with all windows,
tracks, and motor

Drivers Quarter Panel   Small dent above fender lip and probably be massaged
out with minimal body work

Passenger Quarter Panel Small dent near rear of fender lip looks easily
repairable

Rear Hood   Looks perfect except for some small scratches on the rear edge

Engine compartment wheel wells   They both look good no major rust noted
maybe some surface rust.

Rear tail light area   No damage looks good

Rear suspension   Undamaged, complete except for brakes

Left Front Suspension  Undamaged, complete except for brakes

Rear Bulkhead glass   Undamaged, rubber looks good

Any part of the rear frame from the firewall back

Fiberglass trunk tub

Title for the car is clear and NOT a salvage, the insurance company never
took possession of it


I am not an automotive body expert, but this is what I see. I don't see any
major rust in the rear area, surface rust if anything. The front section has
rust from exposure of the bare metal for a year after the crash while it was
being stored. The back section looks solid. Any repair needed for the above
listed panels appear to be very minor. The 1974 chassis has 44,000 original
miles on it. 

You can see it on my web site under the "barn yard finds" section:

There is no transmission or engine included with the chassis but the 351
Cleveland can be negotiated into the sale. The engine has 44,000 miles and
ran like a champ. After sitting almost a year in storage after the crash, it
started on the first try and ran smooth and smokeless. The engine will be
sold as a long block. I also have Hall big bore headers and mufflers that
can also be negotiated into the sale.

I have been getting calls from people looking for specific parts. I am
selling this as a whole and will not part out the body. I've been told that
a quarter panel sells for about $1500 to $1800. A rear deck lid sells for
$2000 to $2500. Wheel houses for $400 each. I have not gotten prices for
complete doors. I am open to offers, if no satisfactory one comes in, it
will hit the Ebay train. You can reach me at (808) 782-1545 or Email me for
more information.

Aloha from Hawaii,
