I have no AC or Heat

The heater core is under the dash. It is independent of the AC system. The AC uses an evaporator, also under the dash.

That hole is where the original clutch master went. Judging by the angle iron and master cylinders, yours must have been relocated. Most likely you still have your heater core and AC evaporator. They exist together in a box under the instrument panel. There can be many reasons why they don't work like blocked water hoses, stuck valve, and no refrigerant.

Also, see if you can adjust your camera to a lower resolution for posting pictures. You only need 1024 pixels at most for attached images.

Right now I do not have the condenser connected, so the AC is fairly obvious. I was worried that I might be missing other parts I could not see.

I use a Nikon SLR. I only have a very old copy of Photoshop. First I save it at the lowest possible quality JPEG then I crop until it is under 200kbs. That photo started at 3 megabytes

Looks like you need a copy of the orange parts manual. It has exploded views of most systems. It is available through the vendors and, I believe, through POCA (Pantera Owners Club of America). You'll have to check the various websites. I've found it handy on more than one occaision.

Quality is not the issue, it is the number of pixels width.

On the Nikon, hold the Qual / Enter button and rotate the front finger wheel near the on/off switch. Select S on the display.

or

In Photoshop, select Image. Resample and select 1024 pixles width and locked aspect ratio.

I got it lets see if it works.

It looks like your Pantera no longer has the original pedal assembly.

icole, Just out of curiosity can you take a picture of your front trunk? As David noted, you no longer have a stock setup.

I think one of the old batteries leaked in here, because I have a lot of rust to deal with. Meanwhile rust else where on the car is minimal. I have a bit on the bottom edge of drivers door, and under the front bumper. This trunk is not stock, and when it is open the car looks awful.

icole, I'll bet your pedals have "Wilwood" or "Tilton" logos cast into them. Frankly, I can't imagine why someone would remove the original pedal assembly, unless they were building a dedicated race car. If I were you, I'd put it all back to stock configuration. I'd be watching eBay for a stock Pantera pedal box and pedals. You'll also need a booster, M/C and proportioning valve; for these three items, aftermarket is fine. While the front trunk is stripped bare, you can deal with your rust problem too.
