Our 74 is somewhat modified and known for its rare 3 twos.... We admire all the great modifications our Pantera friends have come up with and consider them "auto/motor geniuses"! We respect all the stock Panteras and every Pantera we see in our travels, shows and postings!
Keep expressing yourselves guys and gals by fulfilling your vision of what your car can be! You have that right and you are admired and respected by the most who count!
