[DeTomaso] white P for sale

[Steve Hawkins]

I don't want to see the values increase, I like to drive mine and would
hesitate if the value was too high.

Granted it would need work to be a "driver", still cheaper than total
restoration of a driven and neglected car though. But why would you even
consider purchasing this car as a "driver"? There are a ton of "driver"
Panteras out there. This car is now a piece of history and should be
preserved as is. I think it's great that everyone loves to customize their
cars but if there was more respect for these original survivors such as
judged preservation classes for POCA sanctioned shows I think we would see
an increase in car values. These higher Pantera values we all want to see
can only happen when there is more demand than supply. IMHO getting more
preservation collectors into our fold would help with increased demand and
values.
