New pantera in Finland.
party I finally got my no2206 1971 pantera and drove it directly 150km from harbour to my home.
Once totally dead in trafficlights and after small adjustments in carburator side I was able to do last part. My friend went to check it and I had no posibility to check it personally. As from the pictures the aquagreen colour was looking very mild blueish turquoise...but in reality it was truly poison green!! As I like the 71 cars could stay allready original Im very happy with the original retro colour.
Now its time to learn what's in it and what needs to be done in a first place.

Well cheers everyone I'll keep on reading and learnig from forum!!
Peter from Finland

Congratulations, awesome loooking car and truly and incredible colour Smiler. LOVE IT.

I know this car was advertised as being it's original aqua green, however while it looks aqua - I suspect it is actually the 1971 V305 medium green !!

I researched these colors intensely before painting my car the aquagreen metallic V306 (se other tread).
The two colours are somewhat similar but
V305 medium green is a NON-metallic and V306 aqua green a metallic !!

Heh what a cheerful crowd I got...thank you very much. The colour is truly non metallic and there is one overpaint so propably the shade was changed once from original marked as you have noticed Kristian.
As for Finnish transsami; the car needs some this and that after staying so many years in garage but im not starting to take it into parts as that way it would be a pension project...and more Im just in a learning process so one piece at the time..
I will take some more images after finding some really fat halfnaked Finnish blondes. You needed pictures of ..interior and ..mufflers.

By the way I found the car pictured in POCAS 10 years aniversary mag from 83 Big Grin

Thank you Garth. I have been swimming in your website in all possible movements. I have to say you have made excuisite work. The way you build the site around the car and brand. There is many sites but just having photoshoots and horsepower statistics. What is most important the small things are not taken for granted but explained.
I have to start making lists of the pieces I need for the comming weeks.
ac not working...window not working..temp gauge broken...as everyone knows..rear axles propably shot... Big Grin
Cheers to everyone it is fun!!
Peter
