It sold for $33,333.
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1972-detomaso-pantera-77/
I have 2 projects one nearly done, the other is stripped and needs metal 
repair but nothing like the one that just sold.  Looks like time to sell it.

I remember how cheap the cars we like were into the early 70's and then 
prices exploded due to inflation.

Wow.  I don't think I've seen a bigger rust bucket.  It has rust holes in 
the roof and floor, so at least the rain can go all the way through.  The 
only parts that don't look rusted are the glass, and maybe the rubber.

I thought it might be a good candidate to rebody - GT5-S or one of those car 
shows where they turn it into a Frankenstein.  But man - everything is 
rusted.

That's the first time I've seen an engine access cover that looked like 
that.  Is that from an early car?

      Everyone, the 'rust bucket' project '72 Pantera currently listed on
      BringATrailer is near me in the Atlanta area.  I am trying to arrange 
a
      visit to see the car even though the seller is on vacation.  If anyone
      is interested in me looking for something specific or a picture that
      was not provided on BaT, please email me (bcartus at yahoo.com) soon. 
I'm
      not interested in this car for myself, but will assist POCA folks that
      might be.

      Guys,
      Stumbling thru this "very easy" conversion......with absolutely no
      instructions other than for mounting the new AC pump/alt bracket.????
      Everything after that is free??? Free to find it wherever you
      can.......?? I'll stop here for the moment.
      Back history: I am removing a 130Amp Ford 3G alternator and installing
      a 97A GM 12si version.?? No, I do not need all the amperage.......no
      EFI, no big stereo.....
      SO, down to the two terminals on the alternator.? #1 and #2.??? Bat+ 
is
      pretty evident.......duh!
      This is what I can glean from Google, but who knows how good their
      search is these days....since I'm not looking to buy
      anything.....grrrrr.....? I have this:
      Terminal #1 appears to be for the dash lamp and will connect to the
      Blue/Black(Stripe) wire formerly on the voltage regulator term "I" and
      this needs to be "Key ON" not 100% of the time or it will drain your
      battery......albeit slowly.???
      Terminal #2 is the Voltage Sense and can be connected 100% of the time
      (or Key ON only if you like) which I believe is a Yellow wire, 
terminal
      "A" from the old harness.
      Regulator Terminals? S (Green/Red stripe) & F (Orange) are no longer
      used. (internal stator windings and control)
      If anyone can give me a thumbs up on this, it would come in handy 
about
      now.
      Now I just need to find the damned new pigtail connector that I bought
      a couple of days back, before I started tearing my car apart!!!??? 
It's
      around here somewhere......? and I'm rearranging components on my
      starter solenoid/coil panel to boot.? Need new room for heater hose
      support and my inline rust filter!? I don't want my heater hoses 
laying
      on the alternator!
      Thanks in advance!
