Reply to "Pantera #2263 : Documented history of the first factory Pantera Group 4 2263 / 8263"

The weldings and unique reinforcement rear bars.

In the photo set from the January 1972 official presentation of the Group 4, there is a very interesting picture showing the engine compartment. It shows two reinforcement bars that are unique to 2263. They are still in our car today.

What seems like a bullet proof evidence that our car is 2263, is the shape of the weldings done in the engine bay around these bars. The weldings were poorly finished so that they have a random shape. You will see on the comparison picture between 1972 and today that our car still has the exact same weldings, with the same shape in the exact same place as 2263 in 1972.

This again shows a strong evidence that our car is nothing else but the original factory Pantera Group 4 2263.
