If you have one, its a small yellow box mounted inside the front trunk, with 
a rubber covered black button. As I understand this thing, when you try to 
start a '71-73 Pantera, if you don't catch it on the first turn of the key, you 
have to turn the key all the way back to "off' to start the car. Just going 
from 'on' to 'start' a second time doesn't work. With the '74s, someone can (if 
they're standing outside next to the open front trunk) instead push the button 
and the key will then allow the car to start without twisting it all the way 
back to 'off', then to 'start' again. Needless complication that many '74 
owners discard. Good luck- J Deryke
