Reply to "Spare Wheel"

Hey guys,

I've never seen the space saver spare for a Pantera! Seems everybody tosses them out.

Some '69 through '73 Mustangs were equipped with space saver tires. The size was rated 7.75 x 14 and the tire was manufactured by B.F. Goodrich.

I have no idea if the Pantera spare was borrowed from the Mustang, if so, then replacements will be as near as the nearest Mustang restoration shop. However, I believe the space saver spare for Mustangs is a highly sought after item, so I'm not sure if they have ever been reproduced. If they haven't, then you won't find one for a Pantera either. By the way, a 30 year old tire is not a spare tire, please don't use it.

I carry a portable, 12 VDC air compressor & tire plugging kit in my front boot. Plus a set of pliers for removing whatever has perforated my tire.

Your friend on the DTBB, George
