do you provide a "nice" set of gr4 fiberglass flares ?
Philippe
Sorry Philippe, I do not make the glass gr4 flares. Been thinking about making new master plugs/flairs that would have internal hidden fasteners or bonding surface for a perfect fit. You would be able to bond them on the Corvette new panel adhesive or hidden rivets---maybe this spring. If I have a need in house, they will get made for sure---best I can offer right now.
How is the air dam attached? sheet metal screws? Is it universal for 71-74?

Joe,
There is a hidden lip that tucks under the spoiler shape and it's attached with 6mm bolts that are provided. The wheel well faces can be removed or attached with rivets if you use it. Sometimes the lower fenders have been modified to fit deeper dish wheels so the spoiler was designed to fit un-modified or modified openings. You can see the hidden lip and mounting holes in the close-up. It does fit all years but I am not sure how well on very early hand-built 71 cars---never tried to fit one. All customers have reported a very positive no issues install with very good fitment. I spend allot of time build my master designs making sure they fit the car as good as possible. Hope this helps.

I HAVE INTEREST IN A SPLIT BUMPER F&R SET FOR MY 73L....ARE THEY IN STOCK OR IS THERE A WAIT? THANK YOU, RICK
I ordered 4 more sets today and my glass shop can produce a set per day. I will ship bumpers by the 16th.
Last week I caught the flue and progress stopped for a bit. About 60% right now so this week should be a full speed by Tuesday.
I am going to extend the sale until the end of January incase someone needs more time.
Also it's pinewood derby time. Anyone helping the shorter ones build a car? I'll post some fun details later on Alejandro's Neighborhood Pub.

Hi Kirk, been a long time! I bought my split bumpers and engine bulkhead panel probbaly 6 -7 years ago. I always thought the bulkhead pane should be designed to fit a small (8 inch)? woofer like the Ford GT has in it.

Here are my Amerisport bumpers fitted. I love them and I think it was money well spent.
Thanks Kirk!

Great looking car! Much appreciated on the kudos. Would you mind sending some shots direct to my email so I might add them to the file.
Any rear shots?
Thanks James.

Gary,
When building a new designed parts of the Pantera, the biggest problem I have is trying to find a long term solution to fit the needs of many different owners. When it comes to any sound systems, most guys have there own ideas on how the system should sound and where the speakers are placed. There should be enough space directly behind the passenger seat in my bulkhead to add a smaller sub woofer because of the slightly extended panel to clear the AC compressor pulley. If you have devolved another solution, please post some pictures or let me know what ideas you might have that would be suitable to build in multiples. Thank you for the input.

The old girl posted a 14.7 at 97.5mph with a terrible start. I think with a better driver (or more practice!) she should be good for very low 14. It is a low compression 72 engine, mostly stock and 40 plus years old so it is bang on the money. I was quite pleased with the car, not so much with my driving, however first time down the quarter in almost 20 years! Boy I'm getting old.
Didn't have any rear pics as yet so I will drag her out on the weekend for a bath and take some shots for you. I can't tell you how happy I am with the difference the bumpers make to the look of the car over the L bumpers. I just want to have the car in the lounge room so I can look at it for hours.
