Pictures from ESTuned Dyno Day.

I ran my car on the dyno here in Tucson. Everyone wanted to see the Pantera!

It was a whole new crowd of people, lots of young kids.

It was a fun time. I didn't put down the massive horsepower (I am running my basically stock, original motor with 100K miles on it), but it was close enough to the advertised numbers to satisfy me... but I need to get my "new motor" back together!

I think so, but the logo pocket is in the center. So you have to either cut it in two places, or you have to do the minor fiberglass/bondo/filler work to fill the sides of the hole.

It's just beyond my skill level to chop that thing in half, and then put the pieces back together to make it look right.

I am using one. It IS from Hall Pantera.



Doug,

I do not supply any fiberglass to Hall Pantera or any other vender but Ron McCall. I do supply Pantera Performance but have not sold them bumpers for years.

My bumper is distinctive---it is widened to fit the car and has hard line corners rather that radiuses. The important issues is it fits the car.

Here is one just finished with recessed daytime driving lights mounted. You can see the front outer hard line corners in this picture. The customer did let me knew the one side of the car was crashed and the work was poorly done so they did have some minor fitting but it was not do to the bumper's construction.

Another shot with the lights on. I am building some new mirrors that you can actually see what's behind you, that fit the car properly and will be easy to install. The last attempt to fix the BMW replacement mirrors worked but is way to labor intense to build and finish the new mounts. I will post something on a mirror thread later.

I've worked very hard making sure each part fits the car so if someone thinks they have an AmeriSport part that does not fit, please contact me direct. If it is mine, I'll figure out what the problem is and if it is not mine, I'll do my best to talk you through a procedure that will make the part work.

I did that drive a couple times with a buddy stationed at Davis Monthan AFB. It was 112F in Tucson and 65F when we parked the car to start hiking. You could feel the temp drop by the minute as we circled and switched back up the road.

Best,

Kirk,
Are those lights LED? Look fantastic. I'd like someone to something similar to my metal bumpers except incorporate the turn signals.


Jon Hass makes them. It's a nice set up.

Daytime driving LEDs plus turn signals. I think you need to make a separate key on wiring change if you want the "driving lights only" to come on.
This was my "spare motor" and had been sitting in my garage for a while.

Apparently I had not sealed up the Thermostat opening when I pulled this motor and this guy got in.

He couldn't have gotten in through a radiator top-off, so he had to be in there since the motor was installed in ~ June of 2016.

Unbelievable.
