Reply to "What do your neighbors say???"

All my neighbours are out of sight in the woods in my area, so I never have anyone walk over when the Pantera comes out.

As for working on it, I don't, much. I did the Holley cleanup, and then the tuning when it was on the dyno (they only know FI), but that's pretty well been it.

I would probably be much more into working on it if I had not worked that out of my system in my youth. Starting in high school I rebuilt my car's 390 and Cruise-O-Matic; changed leaf springs on my 66 Mustang (dang! should have kept that one), R&R'ed my Pinto's motor, etc. Later I worked in a machine shop, boring cylinders, grinding crankshafts, etc. for a couple of years. And I did all my own mechanic'ing, tuning, welding, crash repairs, etc. on my Formula Ford for three years.

Now I'm ready to let someone else do it. I'll discuss it, I'll help, but they can do the hard and/or tedious stuff.

Now, mostly I want to drive it.
