Panteras and knows what they need and how to do it.

Jersey Panteras member Joe DiVillio has stripped it bare, eradicated
the
relatively minor rust demons, welding in metal GTS flares and replacing
rotted rockers with custom fabricated replacements. A I'll be posting
periodic photos of the procedures.
