[DeTomaso] How do you know if the axles are aftermarket

[Mad Dog Antenucci]

Rich,
   
  Wot a great find.  You never told me before  it had serious race history or all the spares. Forget the other Pantera's...this is the ONE to race.
   
  Again Congrat's....very envious!

  My tech question is- if the rear axles have holes in the center can they still be aftermarket strong axles?

Now for the rest of the story

I should go to some kind of therapy for doing this but I bought another pantera. 

I again have 3 cars. One driver, one on a rotisery, and the third one I bought yesterday is a racer.

It was the Round Table Pizza car if you know it. I bought it from the original owner. A real nice guy.

It hasn't raced in a while so it needs TLC.

I think it is cool. No key, throw a few toggle switches and press a starter button. Full cage. 351C dry sump. 180 degree headers. Gas fill flappers on the roof. It has aluminum doors, hood, trunk, and engine lid. I think it has a different gear ratio for high speeds. I thought I know cars but there are some performance things on this car that I don't know what they are for.

It seems to run good but with straight 5 or 6 inch exhaust and no plates I haven't really tested it our yet.

Now I am really a slacker unless I get it to events.

Rich
