Although I did most of the work myself I had plenty of friends from the Pantera community and others who helped and gave me advise, and direction and their physical labor. Especially when I had to pull the transaxle 3 separate  $&$@!? times to fix this and that. Haha At one point I even took the transaxle apart to fix a reverse idler detent that was stuck. This car did not come with directions, just a box of parts and you have to figure it all out, but that’s half the fun right? But lots of hours spent even into the wee hours of the morning and some engineering; it’s about there.
