When we were at the Reno/Tahoe Rally, I asked PCNC president Gary Kono where
he got his dash mat, that was embroidered with "Pantera" on it. He said he
got it from Kragen Auto Supply a number of years ago, and wasn't sure they
still had it. BTW; it was a special order item, not "off the shelf".
While running errands a couple of weeks ago, we saw a Kragen's and said what
the heck, lets give it a try. Low and behold, the counter person said "sure
we can get one made, do you really have a Pantera?"! I ordered one for our
1974 "flat dash" (no pods) and added the optional embroidering. I just
picked it up today, and it fit perfectly, including the 3 holes for the
round defroster vents! Total cost was $46.99 plus tax. After looking at
the box, I was able to get the manufacturer. Here is the link;
http://www.coverkingcarcovers.com/ You can order online and if you put in
1971 it comes up with a different part number than the 1974. I ordered the
black poly carpet, because the parts counter guy said it would last longer.
Looks like the online price is $36.99, even better!
Happy motoring,
Jim
