Reply to "Rusty Frame Rails"

Gary Hall has reproduced about every part of the Pantera, so I'd start with him. But given the variances between years of Panteras and resulting fitment problems of structural/body parts, you may be advised to fab up your own rails locally. Or try finding a parted-out Pantera with a good rear clip. Note that POCA advised Pantera owners in the late '70s to drill 3 spaced drain holes in each frame rail just for this reason. Plus, a badly sealing radiator cap will vent water out and down the inner fender panel & directly into a conveniently(?) located opening into the right rail. Driving in rain will fill undrilled rockers nearly full as well.
