[DeTomaso] Pantera #5606 is for sale

[Kerry Maguire]

Hello everyone,
 
It is with regret that I am putting #5606 up for sale. 
For the last couple of years I have been fighting 3-herniated discs and steadily worsening arthritis in my cervical spine and the Cat is too much for me to enjoy a drive for any great distance. I cannot thank the club members enough who helped me search for "my car" and guide me through the buying process. Hopefully you all will still welcome me if I walk through the door at the monthly club meeting at Casa Machado! 
Here is the POCA album link with pics:

(When club president, Mike Becker is available, we will post an ad on the San Diego Pantera website.)
#5606 has been maintained by Ralph Suarez who lives nearby. The vehicle has about 78500 miles on it. #5606 was sold new in Los Angeles and is rust free and numbers matching. I have a Marti report for the vehicle. 
#5606 has factory 15" wheels, 8 and 10 width with near new (less then 1000 miles) Toyo tires on it. I just renewed the California registration this month. The car is "dialed in" and runs beautifully and reliably. The car includes factory service manuals, and factory Service bulletins. I have the sun visors, wiper blades, engine cover trim pieces, rear tub (in great shape) front license plate bracket, owners manual, extra brake rotors, spare ZF gaskets and a new collapsible spare to go with the vehicle. Tom Tajaarda autographed a book of Pantera test drive reviews for me. There are some miscellaneous other items to go with the car that escape my memory right now.
I believe the vehicle to be accident free. I walked around it with a magnet and everywhere I touched the vehicle with it, the magnet stuck.
The A/C works beautifully and blows cold. All lights, turn signals, etc. work. 
PRICE: $43000
 
My best contact is via e mail. 
 
My job requires I work most weekends, so please keep my schedule in mind, if you are interested in the vehicle and would like to see it.
 
This information below is from a flyer put together 3 years ago from the person that I purchased the vehicle from. He was the second owner and owned the vehicle for 29 years. He told me the first owner was an executive at Paramount Studios.
