[DeTomaso] 1973 (?) Pantera up for auction 9/25

[michael@michaelshortt.com]

Yeah, I'm thinking conversion to a track car or a full on race car.

I also like the color, I'd even add black flares and finish off a GTS paint
scheme with the lime.

Some 180's, a fuel cell up front and roll cage,

That could be fun, if had for 20 and another 10 spent.
