This message didn't appear in the archives for two hours so I am resending.
Maybe it is the small photo attached.

Additionally this is a Pantera with a hinge-back engine bay.

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.
Will,
One car is in PA, 3133, another is in California, 2682. Likely Houston is a 3rd.
