Reply to "#4201 1973 Pre-L Pantera (accepting offers)"

George PAdmin.

What makes an L an L is the 5 mph bumpers & the low emissions motor. The upgrade of the dash from double pod to single pod was just a running improvement, it realy has no bearing on a Pantera being an L model. The first L was chassis 4269, it was built in August 1972.

The 1973 production year technically began on July 1, 1972. Cars built in Modena in July 1972 would show up in US showrooms in September 1972 or later, which is the beginning of the 1973 sales year.

Since the first L was built in August, not July, there were 300 or so Panteras built in July 1972, that are technically 1973 models, but were Pre-L models.

Glen's car was built August or September of 1972, during the 1973 production year. Someone didn't understand that somewhere along the line.
