Not much to say except:1) I think they should have kept the Playboy Pantera PINK as I liked it a lot.  One has to have good taste to appreciate it!  : )2) Also I'm playing with my new high torque starter for the "other" car  (F) you, Mikey Drew, referred me to.  It came couple days ago.  It's now at GTO Engineering and we'll see if they can do things I don't believe any Pantera mechanic can do.  : )3). Re: my Pantera, my Webers got serviced (thanks again to Lance Nist) and I have detailed pictures of how to take them apart, then finding the needle, extracting and cleaning it, then putting it back in seat, checking and starting her up.  Next time I need it done, maybe I'll try it myself (then again, maybe not).  4) Oh yes, I surely hope everyone is a member of POCA so you can read all the publications from way back in the 70s, enjoy the benefits especially my entertaining Interviews.  Tony Hales from UK up this time (current owner of Carmine's Pantera).  Then check out the beautiful GT5S Pantera of the Quarter, I was once parked by it at a car show and the two looked related; made a great picture!  Then Lloyd Butfoy's interview was last issue; bet there's lots amazing info. you didn't know about him and his dad, Roy.  Before that, rock drummer Carmine Appice, then there's one on Terry Himes, the Mars Man, and before that, that fellow, you know the one, who runs all those Silver State Races!  The TPR guys are readying themselves for the big September one.  5) Happy 4th ahead of time. Cheers to all Laurie (Basile) aka Laurie Ferrari, one and the same.
