there's many small differences between early & late cars ("L" & "pre-L"); some of the early "L"'s have a few pre-L features, etc. some cars have wings/flares, some don't. hang out on the pantera digest a while, ask a few questions, & soon yule know which variety best suits ya.

ps - jack is correct about what ewe can expect to get for ~$25k - a nice driver; and that rust & the zf are the two most expensive tings to fix...

Right now I own a 01 mustang GT supercharged. I also have a cherry 61 Falcon that I will be selling. Anyways...
I am looking to find me a Pantera to compete with my father. I am familiar with the cars, but not familiar. I'm sure you know what I mean. I've heard common items and necessary upgrades such as cooling upgrade and fan upgrade etc. However I know nothing about what each entails. I'm looking to learn as much as I can from this here site.
What kind of things should I look for when checking out cars? I'm looking for something to put a little work into, not looking for a concourse car. I want a good respectable reliable driver that'll handle occasional driving and trips to vegas, and we all know what Vegas will entail
So what are some tips when searching? Anyhting I should be leary of? Anything that's a definate plus? Where are some good places to search for cars? Anyone have any leads on cars? I appreciate it guys. Thanks
