Reply to "I just read Bill Mason's diaries..."

When I installed 4744's Hall Pantera hood inserts in June of 1980, I'm quite sure I remember covering a Bill Stroppe sticker. I remember a yellow circle with a black outline and "Bill Stroppe Racing" on it. I also remember being hesitant about covering it up at the time. But what I don't remember is which of those 5 panels it was under, and I don't want to play "scratcher" to try to find it again! Possibly someone else still has theirs exposed and can post up a photo. It was my understanding that many early western US Panteras went through his shops for updates, and had received these stickers as a mark of completion of these updates.

As for the "lard"...I'm sure the smog pump and associated plumbing accounts for some of it as well.
