[DeTomaso] So where is the new Pantera?

The FAST Act is a very large bill with many, many provisions (74 pages long!). SEC 24405 and 24406 are the ones related to small replica manufactures.
Implementation is to be by the Secretary of Transportation (Elaine Chao) and the Administrator of the EPA who was Scott Pruitt (not the racer) until his resigned and now acting EPA admin is Andrew Wheeler. Probably implementation of this one of the many provisions in FAST is just not on anyone's radar. What's needed is an enthusiast that happens to work in one of these departments that can act as a zerk to grease the squeaky wheel!

Guys,
This article discusses the bureaucratic nightmare that our Deep State
has created which is largely responsible for the fact that the
long-promised new Pantera is nowhere to be found.

Congress passes a law, and gives the unelected bureaucracy one year to
implement it. Because they didn't feel like doing so, they didn't, so
nothing has happened. And nobody is held accountable.
This is a microcosm of our entire political system. While the
politicians are the `face' of democracy and draw all the attention, the
reality is that they make up a tiny portion of the machine that
actually runs the country. They may come and go, but these unelected
bureaucrats are where the REAL power lies. If the politicians pass a
law they don't like, they can just drag their feet and wait them out
until new politicians arrive to take their places.
I wish I had a solution but of course I don't....
