I think we are all giving Art totally bogus, biased, subjective advice. We
should all be supporting and encouraging him to chop up and decimate an
absolutely perfect irreplaceable piece of Italian craftsmanship. As one of
the few survivor stock virtually un-modified and molested Panteras left on
this earth we should encourage him to not only to hack the hood to pieces
but to also drop a much more powerful Dodge,  Chevy, Honda or Diesel Cat
engine and chrome every thing in the engine bay, flair the fenders, add
wings, spoilers, air scoops, gigantic wheels and tires and repaint the car
Mystic  blue/green/brown with flames and a character of some Disney
character on the trunk. Then replace the stock carpet with green shag carpet
and reupholster the seats with genuine faux leopard print vevlatine.  As we
all should know Art by now will typically pursue the opposite course of any
advice given him.
