Sorry Guys I have been away in the garage working on 6476.
By original I mean everything as it was from factory. That could be a nice restoration to something like my new GTS, exactly from the factory with all the original patina. Even the smell. All thought it to has a couple upgrades fuse box, carb and ignition.
I have to say thats why I love the site and the Pantera, because of the wide spectrum of enthusiast's. From stock to race car.
I also have to comment that the corvette, mustang and shelby clubs go way overboard. Thats why I sold mine. I spent years restoing a 69 Shelby only to go to a show and have someone tell me this screw is not correct. Well I towed the car out of a garage of the original owner's father who died in Vietnam and the father called me to purchase the car. I visited this car since I was 7 .. only I would have known those were the original screws.
So I too have one complete original Pnatera with a couple upgrades and one in limbo ... in which I leaning towards GT4 Modified.
Good luck guys and I always say " drive with your heart and buy with your head."
Heres my collection of animals, cobra mustang and pantera.
