[DeTomaso] Mecum Kissimmee

[Mark Charlton]

If that yellow car sold for $64K, I’d say that is very strong money. It was highly modified wth some unusual “personal” touches that I would have expected to hurt the value quite a bit more — as some are not easy reversible. Have a look at the way the fender front edges meet the front hood. The interior is modified, but not that well if you look at the door panels and the bumps and bagging in the leather elsewhere. No shoulder belts? A broom holding up the rear decklid… there is a lot to question on this car, IMHO. I think the seller should be pleased.

As far as I can tell, only one Pantera (of the 4 listed) at Mecum will provide any real indication of the state of the Pantera market, and it is this one:

     Downward trend or the usual low prices that you see at these
   auctions?
