[DeTomaso] Really Rough Pantera on Ebay at $25K

[Mike Reilly]

Agree with Sean....you could get it going as a driver for much less.  I was just rough guessing if you took it as is to a restoration shop to get made right.  
 
Joe, didn't mean to discourage you.....getting it to a driver level is doable for much less and if the new owner does as much of the labor as they can then getting it right may be a reasonable expense.  Bottom line is it's great seeing it be saved and hopefully the new owner has their eyes wide open with the purchase and discovers that there is a supportive community (vendors and other owners) ready to help them out.

I know a reputable shop that can get this to daily driver (not showroom)
for $15k so that might be a very good investment indeed.  To get it the
next step though... and it really deserves the next step.
