>>>Looks like a pretty nice car.   And   when one is doing the math about a 
GT5 or GT5-S conversion, this drives home the reality that spending money 
on a Pantera doesn't automatically increase its value.   In this particular 
case, this car would probably have sold for the same amount, or maybe even 
more, if it was in a stock narrow-body configuration.

The lesson learned here is that the only reason you should choose to make 
this conversion yourself, is if you really, really want it, and plan to keep 
it forever, and are not concerned about money spent vs. resale value.

If you are shopping for a Pantera and want a widebody car, you're much 
better off buying one that has already been done, like this car--at least from a 
financial perspective....
