[DeTomaso] Autoweek online Mention

[Ken Green]

I read a few years back that the folks deeply into Corvettes would work hard to duplicate the original cosmetic flaws during a restoration.  Seems a little backwards to me.  I'd guess the Corvette performance folks are a lot more like us.

As Larry mentioned, I think its good to have spent time in the Corvette camp because the Pantera camp will seem  like a breath of fresh air.   - Jim Coyne

I moved over to the Pantera Family as the
Corvette crowd was getting ready to tar and feather me for the things I have
done to “there” cars.

I hope that the Pantera folks
don't start getting roiling underwear about originality in Panteras.  We
would all be sunk then! ---BILL Lewis

In a story about aJan auctions, Mecum vs BJ.  
   
DeTomaso Pantera 
At Mecum, you'd have paid $49,500 to
take home a 1974 example of the increasingly desirable Pantera. At
Barrett-Jackson, a 1971 car would have set you back $48,400.
The difference is originality -- the early B-J car is tuned, to put it mildly,
with flashy five-spokes and a nitrous-oxide system. Depending on your
perspective, this is either a huge improvement or an unacceptable desecration.
Compare that to the “highly original” Mecum car. 
Winner: We'd vote for the unmolested car at Mecum, but that's
personal preference at play. This one's inconclusive.
