[DeTomaso] Not Your Average Pantera, Meet BKPNTR

[Andy May]

Maybe its just me, but when I look at my Pantera, my first thoughts are NOT
"now that would be a great basis for a KIT CAR".

If you want to build a kit car - start with a Fiero, VW, whatever.....

     Guys, I have to weigh in on this.A  Two weeks ago I was at the "Best
     of France an
     d Italy" car show in Van Nuys and a guy pulled in with a burgundy
     mid 60s Ferrar
     i he had rebuilt from a rescued body.A  He had aftermarket wheels,
     an Art Morriso
     n tube chassis and a 500hp Small Block Chevy.A  I should also
     mention that he was
     A running without a hood. He couldn't get grouped with the Ferraris
     but instead w
     as placed in the "other cars" row.A  A I was talking to him and
     appreciating the w
     orkmanship of his car when he told me that a Ferrari club guy with a
     mock turtle
     neck sporting the horse came over and told him the car was an
     "abomination". The
     A Chevy/Ferrari owner replied "So is coming to a car show in women's
     clothing".
     The frustrated Ferrari club member slinked away.A  The Ferrari Club
     guy should ha
     ve appreciated that at least this derelict old Ferrari was
     resurrected creativel
     y and back on the road.
     Let's not become the Ferrari club.
     Incidentally, I saw the GT40 Pantera in San Diego and it is
     "bitchin".
