Does anyone know anything about Jack Webb (Dragnet) ever owning a Pantera?

Hi David -
I did a little checking into this, and I sort of convinced myself that there was ANOTHER Jack Webb (not of Dragnet fame) that was at one time a relatively high ranking person in POCA.
While I wanted it to be true, I could never make the "Dragnet" connection.
I would be happy to be proven wrong...

I was in Atlanta the other day talking to someone who mentioned that they had Jack Webb's black Pantera.
"Jack Webb?" I asked. To which he replied, "just the facts, ma'am."
So I assumed it was the actor. I never heard of him as a famous Pantera owner before and was curious if anyone knew of this.

So this still leaves open the possibility that Jack Webb, of Dragnet Fame, Badge No. 714 owned a Pantera.
Hopefully someone has more hard evidence. I can't get a conviction on this flimsy testimony - it's hearsay.

Just the facts, please.

I just saw this post, but if anyone is still interested.
I worked at “Ford Auto Body” on Sepulveda Blvd about 1974.
Jack Webb brought in a yellow Pantera that we custom painted Black for a birthday present for his daughter. He was there many times and was a perfectionist.
We repainted it three times until every inch was prefect.
He was always a nice guy!
This is the city......
Thanks for that. Pantera mysteries are timeless.
Thanks, Jerry!
Sounds like this case is closed!
This is very cool because Jerry is able to tie the black and yellow cars together with his testimony!
It would be cool to see a picture of Joe Friday and Bill Gannon roaring down the streets of the city in a Pantera!
