As time permits, could you please get me that part number? I just emailed "db electrical" and told them I had a 1973 Pantera - just wondering what there response will be. Are you keeping the remote solenoid? Seems to me that the solenoid would be more convenient located ON the starter - unless I am missing something - which is normal.

   As time permits, could you please get me that part number? I just
   emailed "db electrical" and told them I had a 1973 Pantera - just
   wondering what there response will be. Are you keeping the remote
   solenoid? Seems to me that the solenoid would be more convenient
   located ON the starter - unless I am missing something - which is
   normal.

   Thank you all for the input.
   I purchased the DB starter, then I left the country. It shipped Monday.
   I had added notes for what year Pantera it was for and requested the
   free wiring kit.  My order did not mention the wiring kit nor confirm
   the application.
