Ford found on early Panteras that owners wouldn't go to the trouble of opening the trunk lid, unfastening the engine screen and grope around for the front mounted dipstick. I imagine that replacing the stick was even more cumbersome. Can you all say "Engine Warranty?" The extended length dipstick got included PDQ even though the first dipstick TSB says 'May 1972'. You have a rare engine part!
