[DeTomaso] Pantera futures

I saw a rest Mod Nomad with an LS3 and all the other updates sell on Mecum
today for $150K. I think a stock Nomad  could be had for between $40 and
$70K   ( My research is tainted when the gas Monkeys bought the Nomad to
customize fir Mountain dew that seemed to be the price range they were
looking at. That being said any info presented on the Gas Monkey Fiasco has
around as much validity  as Ouija boards , magic eight balls, and Tarot
cards!

     A  A I agree with you Bill. One case in point is if you look at; as
     an
     A  A example, 1955 to 1957 Chevy's, the ones that are going for the
     big
     A  A dollars are the pro touring cars with LS motors, four wheel
     discs,
     A  A cross braced frames, independent suspension, and Rack and
     Pinion
     A  A steering, etc.
     A  A You might have the Bel Air convertible that are worth a pretty
     penny
     A  A but the majority of nice 55 to 57 Chevy's are only worth 30 to
     40 maybe
     A  A 50 grand. Pro touring ones I've seen for over 100 grand.
     A  A I have a friend with a 356 Porsche and his car is going to be a
     100
     A  A points show car at which point he will not be able to drive it
     anymore.
     A  A I have had several Harleys and not one of them was ever stock.
     :-)
     A  A I think the rarity of the Pantera no matter what you do to it
     is going
     A  A to hold it's value.
     A  A Besides when the ring brothers printer is auctioned at Barrett
     Jackson
     A  A will see what that thing goes for.
     A  A Just my opinion, but it's an interesting discussion.
