As many of you know my Pantera project has been slow. I am progressing on
the things which have been getting in the way and still making progress.

Last Fall/winter I worked on rebuilding the MGB engine and re-working the
engine bay after a broken oil line hose:

This past spring/summer I have been rebuilding my mowing tractor. It
started after much dirt work locked the oil rings. An engine re-build
turned into a tractor restoration but it is almost finished:

Webers are done and will be time to fire up the engine again when the
tractor is done:

Next will be setting up the distributorless injection as used here:

One project I kept putting off is the gas tank which is nearly done now:
