1982 24Ft Pantera Special Edition
This Boat was Custom Built with double lamination it's like having two boats in one very solid hull and there was no expense spared to the rigging, engine was custom built by Carolina Custom Engines by Smitty which is a 540 cubic inch 600 plus hp that runs perfect. Engine is equipped with stellings stainless steel exhaust and Silencers and a Counter rotation TRS drive.This Pantera Special Edition was clocked by GPS at 84 Mile an Hour. This boat is Perfect and Beautiful a Classic at it's best. Original Gel coat on hull and repainted deck boat sits just as it was built back in 1982 this is considered a classic Muscle Boat , Take a good look at the Pictures below and see for yourself. It would cost you at least 60 grand to build this boat now a days so take advantage and steal this one for yourself.
If you have any questions feel free to contact me Dave 786-326-7140
I dont believe it is a Speceial Edition as he states in the ad though, I tought the S/E had the pointed windscreen, and the sport had the flat aluminum frame like mine???
Surprised you didnt pick on my spelling,
Come on, if that is an S/E, so is mine, and the price just went up:bump:
There is 2 ways to look at that double lamination, you can have a heavy ass boat, and it will probably last forever, or you could have a light one like mine, and go fast for little $$$, with a few glass repairs here an there:driving:
Not sure I am buying the 2 boats in one deal, but it probably would cost close to $60K to get one laid up and rigged now, of course you would have a NEW boat with modern Hardware for that $$. I am not going to knock the boat /or price, since I am sure it is nicer and faster than mine(with my wimpy outboard) Hopefully it sells, and that sets the bar for 30 year old Panteras:iagree:
Rick, I wasn't busting balls on you. I just crack up on all these overhyped ads. Sure as sh*t doesn't look like an SE to me either. Maybe I have an SE?! :D
I like the boat a lot. I love the 3 man and the long hatches. Like I said, just the wacky ad that kinda got me going.
You really think Pantera would build you a new 24 for $60k? I've never asked, but I would have thought it would be more. That kind of sets a bench mark for what I'd be willing to do with my 24 with the two wimpy outboards! :D
Just buy it DUDE
Sold...Heading to LOTO!
wow finally. this was one of my top choices.
