There was a Pantera with the same headlights in Houston for a while.  We
helped him with some mechanical issues.  I can¹t remember his name right
now.  The car in the photo is different - much nicer - but the headlights
are very similar.

It¹s an interesting look.  I prefer the frog-eyes, but this treatment
looks better, in my opinion, than other conversions I¹ve seen.  He called
it Mangusta headlights, but I don¹t see the resemblance.


The owner moved or was from Beaumont, and I think he moved to Lake
Charles, LA.  He was a nice guy.  I¹ve always wondered what happened to
him.  He just disappeared (from our scene).

At any rate, I don¹t think it¹s the same car.  The car in the photo is
much nicer than the car I remember.  I was just commenting because it¹s
the only other Pantera I¹ve seen with the same headlights.
