[DeTomaso] My '72 Pantera for Sale

[The DeTomaso Registry Guy]

Mike et al,

Matt's car is in the registry, 2927.  History going back 3 owners (to new ???)
The photos show the car is in nice condition, well worth considering.

I like the blue (Biarritz Blue) with a tan interior color.

After 17 years, my Pantera is going up for sale.  I love the car, but priorities have shifted.  I'd like to avoid putting it up on
bringatrailer.com , and deal direct with a buyer, and save them some money.  But I may go that route at some point.  Asking $85K. 
Car is located in Tulsa, OK.  Mike Drew has been in it several times and can vouch for it.
It was a featured Pantera International car in Fall 2000, with the former owner, whom I bought it from.  PI used to have part of the
article online, but it got removed over the years. Have to use the wayback machine to see that, but it's a good little article with
some good pics.  If you're interested, let me know, and I can send you some more pictures.
