Laurie, You are absolutely correct. It is issues like this that certainly do show the value of adding full-color to our newsletter. I am a attaching an item, in color, that has helped me deal with my disappointment that the most recent newsletter wasn't published in color. I hope it can bring some small solace to others.

I have had great experience using the Cibie headlight conversion reflector assembly in both an older mustang (1972) and my Pantera. The reflector/lens unit is a drop-in replacement for the stock Pantera headlight. You can then select from numerous aftermarket bulbs with both low/high beam configurations in various wattages from stock (55/65 watts) to very high (100+). Note the higher wattages will require better wiring and/or a relay setup to function well. The last set of reflector/lens assemblies I bought from Amazon were around $45 per reflector/lens. I paired them with Philips 9003 X-tremeVision Upgrade Headlight Bulbs at around $30 per set. Search Amazon for "Cibie 082440 Light Unit” to find the reflector/lens assembly. Search for "Philips 9003 X-tremeVision Upgrade Headlight Bulb” to find the bulbs I currently use in my Pantera Hella and others make 100/80 watt and other high power bulbs that will fit this reflector, but these are not technically street legal and will cook your wiring if it is not updated. I also believe the reflectors will fit various LED conversion bulbs, but have not tried it yet. Here is a link to a Jeep forum where this reflector/lens conversion is discussed: http://www.wranglerforum.com/f274/headlight-swap-complete-1385873.html Regards, Craig Campman > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Message: 1 > Date: Fri, 9 Sep 2016 16:20:55 +0000 (UTC) > From: Brent Stewart <bjbstewart(a)yahoo.com> > To: DeTomaso List <detomaso(a)server.detomasolist.com> > Subject: [DeTomaso] Headlights - Stock replacement options? > Message-ID: <62672712.2429186.1473438055421(a)mail.yahoo.com> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" > > .Howdy all,.Just getting ready for the Ironstone Concours coming up in a few weeks, and I'd like to update the old headlights so I can drive at night. ?I have the stock round ones, and would like to get something that is a little more modern and brighter..I put these Halogens in my 240Z and they seem to work great:.http://www.blackdragonauto.com/Features/Z/ZEL1.htm > .Any reason they wouldn't fit the P-car? ?What else have y'all used?.Thanks for your advice!!!.brent.. >

Wheels/Tire Combo for Sale
by Emiliano Ballejos 09 Sep '16

09 Sep '16

Gentlemen, I have a set of 18" wheels for sale that came with a project. Not exactly my style but I've seen them on a few cars and listed for sale on eBay through one of the Pantera vendors, can't recall who. Currently have Michelin Pilot Sports on them that are a bit dated but have lots of tread and are worn evenly. They were stored inside so might be ok for some use. $1,800 obo or trade for a set of Campy clones. Regards, Emiliano 7205GTS 5910L
