Reply to "Explain the differences between a US Pantera and my European Pantera"

Yup - That's the one. I have already read the posts of members here and their opinions on the car. Personally, I've seen a lot worse. My '66 K-code needed new floors front and rear, lower quarters and trunk floor. I also had to patch one of the front frame rails and replace both rear. It was a Northern car and rusted from the bottom up.

From what I can tell, this car will need rockers, sills and floors. The other rust prone areas don't look so bad. I don't think this was ever a Northern car. There is some rust in some of the non-structural areas, but that can be taken car of during the body work phase.

I plan to strip the car to a shell and start over (as I do with all my cars). As far as I'm concerned, this is a blank slate and I don't have to worry about originality (as with a Mustang).
