I'm a POCA member too, and the President of POCA is a member of Pantera International.
In the spirit of equal billing and friendly competition, I'd like to mention that Pantera Interntional also has a club store, and we offer the tech literature too. I hope you'll consider joining Pantera International and start receiving our quarterly journal, discounts on parts from PI Motorsports and on items from our club store. A phone call to Justin at (805) 524-5248 will get you started. We have a membership offer going that is too good to pass up. You'll get 8 of our most requested back issues for free with your membership, thats a $120 value. Just remeber to mention the 8 free back issues when you contact us.
The folks at Nor Cal Panteras (PCNC) are a good bunch, you couldn't ask for a better bunch of enthusiasts to hook up with. If club activity like that is what you're looking for, they have my full recomendation.
I promise you this, owning and driving a Pantera is a blast, you'll get out of it what you put into it. There are a bunch of enthusiasts and owners from around the world right here willing to help you any way they are capable.
Regarding your window problem: remeber these four things with all Pantera electrical problems; (1) the fuses make lousy contact in their clips, (2) the switches will go bad, (3) electrical connectors get loose or their contacts get dirty, (4) the grounds also go bad. On top of that, there are 3 low power motors in the car, 2 for the electric windows and 1 to raise the headlights. These motors have a tendency to strip their plastic gears, bronze replacements are available. However, the grease in the motors can simply become gummy to the point that the motors don't have enough torque left to operate the windows or headlights. The first thing to do is to find fuse #13 and give it a wiggle in its clips.
A heart felt welcome!
