DT never 'blended' flares liek the car in this example, always riveted on, both GP4 (exposed rivets) and GT5 (hidden rivets) are this way starting with a stock body coach and cutting the fender wheel arch out.


I wouldn't say "never" at anything when it comes to DT. The flares --seen above-- on 9139 sure look like 'stock blended' flares. Anything and everything was possible during the later (cash crunch) years. Combined with the lack of factory records for the Ford era cars, it's no wonder the Pantera is looked at as a lovable mongrel.

Nice looking car Rocs.. Good luck with the sale.
