It was next door in the detailing shop. The sales guy, John Zuberek, could not gain access since they were closed. He reminded me of Tom Cruise in Risky Business, dealing Lambos! So he is going to email me when it's done and I can go back for a look next week. He also said they have an interested buyer(don't they all?),which may explain the detailing. They must have 20 Lamborghini's just that I could see and some other speciality cars too. Millions of dollars worth of cars. I felt like I walked into a bank vault. I felt a little out of my comfort zone but we talked and he filled me in on the different Lambo models and car stuff in general.They sell between 15-30 cars a month and cater to Lambo buyers primarily. They claim to be one of the biggest Lambo dealers around. He said the owner, Roy Cats, has a special place in his heart for Panteras though. He indicated Roy had recently found another car he's purchasing soon. Stay tuned. John also said they feel the market is surging for Panteras right now. Duh! But in the same breath he added "it's like the stock market ,who knows?". They did have a car I would take over all the rest though, a 2006 Ford GT in Gulf livery. So I took a few pics for you. I haven't tried attaching pics yet so please let me know PM if they don't show up and I'll find another way to post. Let you know what I find out about the Pantera later this week.

Jeff, I hooked up the high pressure side gauge and get these numbers: before starting car, 100 psi both sides after system settles down, at 1500 rpm, low side 7 psi, high side 225 psi. As the car warmed the engine speed increased to maybe 1750 rpm and the high side was creeping up to 240-250 but the low was staying at 5-7. Ambient temp was 77F, so should be about 40-45 low side, 170 high side. According to the info sheet, this "Hi side too high, low side too low" situation would imply "blockage of expansion valve or orifice tube." Would that be from having the R12 valve in a system now using 134? I used my laser thermometer on the vents and got 20-40F, but I suspect that kind of thermometer is not accurate for this application because on my street car I got like 13F, which I think cannot be right. Anyway, it seems to me if I add more 134 I run the risk of blowing the high side hose at 3000 rpm and 85F temp. Does that sound right?

Very original, but definitely not flawless. Pretty car, except for the butt-ugly US bumpers. The front looks like it's choking on a hockey puck, the back is just a visual mess between the PANTERA tail lights, and the rubber transom of a bumper. It is the perfect color though.

It was next door in the detailing shop. The sales guy, John Zuberek, could not gain access since they were closed. He reminded me of Tom Cruise in Risky Business, dealing Lambos! So he is going to email me when it's done and I can go back for a look next week. He also said they have an interested buyer(don't they all?),which may explain the detailing. They must have 20 Lamborghini's just that I could see and some other speciality cars too. Millions of dollars worth of cars. I felt like I walked into a bank vault. I felt a little out of my comfort zone but we talked and he filled me in on the different Lambo models and car stuff in general.They sell between 15-30 cars a month and cater to Lambo buyers primarily. They claim to be one of the biggest Lambo dealers around. He said the owner, Roy Cats, has a special place in his heart for Panteras though. He indicated Roy had recently found another car he's purchasing soon. Stay tuned. John also said they feel the market is surging for Panteras right now. Duh! But in the same breath he added "it's like the stock market ,who knows?". They did have a car I would take over all the rest though, a 2006 Ford GT in Gulf livery. So I took a few pics for you. I haven't tried attaching pics yet so please let me know PM if they don't show up and I'll find another way to post. Let you know what I find out about the Pantera later this week.
