Mike,
Thanks for the info. How hard is it to switch the bumpers. I assume there is bodywork involved…
Has anyone heard of hayden restorations who did this car, the seller does not list the VIN.
These cars with the fancy 351’s how reliable are they. I am assuming it all comes down to who built the motor….
Im trying not to be impulsive. My wife said she liked the black car and that is the first positive thing she
said since I told her she would have to park her miata outside…….. I guess I could bondo the hood vents! :-P
Right now I am including all cars in my search just very partial to the early flat deck lid red cars. Plus I bought the early
owners manual! HAAA

Rob, the link to the black car comes up as a 1973 L model that has had
the late U.S. bumpers taken off and replaced by earlier or Euro
bumpers. You may also want to include later cars in your search as you
can change the L U.S. versions to Euro versions and get that look you
want. You also benefit from all the running updates DeTomaso and Ford
did to the cars. If you search in the registry using the feature
search options you can see how the later Euro cars look and even see
quite a few L models with the bumpers changed. Considering later cars
and budgeting to switch the bumpers out would widen your options as you
can look at 2.5 years worth of more cars (1972.5-1974) rather than just
the 1971-1972.5 (1.5 year) range : ) Mike

I remember Dallas Raines having a Chevy engine installed in his car, so
I did a quick web search, only to find that he has owned more than one
Pantera. I hope you find what you are looking for.
1st half of the fun is the search for a Pantera
2nd half of the fun is owning and driving your Pantera
3rd half of the fun is meeting up with other Pantera owners (at track
events, meetings, shows, dinners, ...), they are a great group of
people
4th half of the fun is modifying your Pantera to your own tastes
Panteras are just too much fun, hope you can handle it
