[DeTomaso] Flood Salvage '74 Pantera up for auction in Louisiana

[audionut at hushmail.com]

Kinda awesome that someone would take this car on.  It'd be just
heartbreaking to see any Pantera enter the crusher whole and complete
like this.   Not knowing much about water damage, and assuming this
car is a total restoration project--  is it possible that a unibody
flooded like this would still be usable having spent (at least some
of) it's life in Baton Rouge? If not, could the car actually bring
upwards of $28K if it were parted out?  Scratching my head here.... I
guess I'm trying to figure what could be motivating these bidders.

Amazing it’s up to $24K.  If it really got flooded (esp. with salt
water) it will be a tough one to save.
