It looks a bit better now but this is how my 73 hall/gt5 car looked when i found it. Believe it or not there is not much rst on tis car other than the hood that needs to be replaced.
it has on it:
hall (i think) steel flares front spoiler/rear valance square headlight conversion koni (a but ugly aluminum homewing that is going bye bye unless somone here wants to sahpe it to their liking
A forged piston chmfered crossdrilled crank closed chamber 4v head motor with mechanical lifters and rolr rockers. it has hall bigbore 180s . dash two transaxle a diesel tractor starter for the high comp motor. Four piont cage inside taper roller bearings for the shiftlinkage ummmm oh yeah it came with a second cleveland a full new set of trw forged pistons another full set of micky thompsen lightweight forged pistons moroso a set of forged trw? a set of screwpin rods waaaay light two sets of heads open and closed an eddy manifold 4-5 cams a nNOS set of FMS valve covers louvered gas doors, and a ton of other . its a project but since I used my heloc to buy the 71 Im not in as big of a hurry to get things done on this car but the disassembly is underway. The car needs bondo work paint and interior work asyou can see but this car will look siiik when done. I'm probalby going to go with the grupe 5 wheels eventaly with thr eknockoffs or kniises k20;s I m debating putting a full interior into this car although I have a nice early dash and console for the car. I have a pair of original seats that need recovering if anyone wants em or has parts to trade. Anyway this is my 73 I'll post up my 71 in a bit.

Yea Ryan,she needs a lot of work.

The Pantera Gods thank you for bringing her back to her former glory!

Where did you find her?

Josh

I found her in Sacto. I yanked that ugly l bumper off of there. I had included two black aluminum euro bumperetes. I stripped the interior and Im now takng aaprt what i can when I can so I can get the body into the shop. I'm thinking ppg viper yellow or fly yelloy ferrari color. I really like the looks of grabber blue too not sure yet. it just cant be red like my other car.

Awesome. I think any color will look great!
Sounds like you're having a blast!!

Best wishes!
Josh

Go for it Ryan!
If my car was in perfect order I think i'd get bored,
and as a result i'd get into too much trouble.
Have fun....

hi ryan, its great to see another pantera brought back from the dead !!! good luck with your new project.,the flares and body kit dont look like any i have ever seen,they dont look like GT-5, are they homemade?,they dont have the same contours as GT-5 flares, i am also restoring a GT-5 bodied 74 ( as seen in the photo gallery under MAKING SOME PROGRESS )........thanx for posting your pix ( would like to see more! ), your in the right place if you need any help with your project!................these guys are GREAT !...........HAVE FUN..........DAVE

Ryan,
Do you have a picture of the rear valance? I haven't seen one that surrounds the exhaust like yours does.

The wing is also non-standard.
Its pedestals are very different too.

Josh

I 'll get a shot of the rear valance. The the flares skits and valance were done in stainless steel reportedly by a guy that worked on Maclellan AFB welding stainless cabinets for the military. I'l have to ask the previous owner who is a big supporter of the red and white and had to stash the car for a while. At least it had a clean title. Thanks for all the responses. her is a shot of the rear valance
The wing is homemade and a decent start by a harley tank and fender builder out of aluminum. I'm ptobably going to sell it anyway. The pipes are coming off a set of hall 180's complete with a pabst blue ribbon gasket. Wait till you seehwo the pipes are routed! Excuse my atrocious typing henceforth. hee hee
