>>>I have seen some models of Jaguar whose wiper arms looked suspiciously 
like those on the Pantera.   But they were LH park models, I believe.   The 
RH park Pantera wiper arm is very oddly shaped and, as far as I know, unique 
to the Pantera, and that's what has Freddy and Richard scrambling.

Most XJ6 models use wiper arms that are secured with a nut; I think it's 
the 1960s and early 1970s models that use a Pantera-style arm, but can't 
confirm that.
