My journey

G Guest
When I was a kid, my parents divorced, and on the weekends that my dad had the kids, we all had to cram into his (what he thought was cool) Porsche 924 and park in the garage in his building near Lake Merrit in Oakland.

His parking spot was next to a dark, forest green pantera, and way back then (33 years ago) the Pantera became my all-time favorite car, even to this day.
Between then and now I've owned over 20 cars, many classics, but lost or sold them in the years after high school when I discovered drugs, and for 10 years found myself homeless, living under a bridge in Seattle.

In 1999 I pulled my head out of my ass, cleaned up, cared for my Grandmother until she passed, but during that time I started racing model cars, full scale cars, flying model planes, lots of cool shit, all on a high level. I was ranked 20th in the US in 2005, and was California Champion a few years ago, racing 1/4 scale offroad RC cars. I airbrush paint the model car bodies for a living.

Flash forward to a couple weeks ago, I was at my jewelers (I like fine watches-Rolex, Vacheron, Patek) and he was showing someone pics on his phone of some old ferarri. I jokingly asked, "is that yours?" and he said yeah, I have 2, this one I just had restored. I was blown away, I had no idea my jeweler friend was a motorhead and collector.
The last year, I've been building a new Subaru BRZ (look it up) street monster. I added a big fat turbocharger, methanol injection, engine management (similar to Motec), I dumped a shitload of money into this car, and it was a BEAST. This little 4 banger made 350 hp to the wheels on the dyno, and there wasn't much that could hang with it on the street.
I did find however that the tuner crowd was not what I was seeking, mostly younger guys, most with no money (cut coils to lower their cars instead of proper coilovers), nice crowd, just not for me.

My neighbor owns a Pantera, and 5 years ago I told him "someday I'm gonna get one of these just like you".

After seeing my jeweler's car pics, it just hit me, "what am I doing dumping money into this car that I'm going to lose big-time on, when I should be out looking for my dream car.
That night I put ads on the forums for my BRZ and sold it 3 days later to a nice gentleman from Indiana.

6 months ago, I didn't know if I was going to live, I had a clogged heart valve, was told I had less than a year to live unless I had open heart surgery, so I said " sign me up! Get me in as soon as you can! I was having terrible chest pains and probably had a few minor heart attacks (that I kept quiet about until after i got insurance). The first doctor freaked out and said "you don't run, move fast, you are "on vacation, hang in there and we'll get you fixed right up". Well, it took 4.5 months to finally get my surgery date, and by then I was praying to God to live until the operation date. I was REALLY a day or 2 away from death.

Long story short, the surgery went great, I have a mechanical heart valve you can hear clicking from across the room, but I'm healthy and free to live out my life as if nothing had happened. My issue was genetic, I was born with an irregular heart valve, and was told it was normal that people with this problem had the same things happen (late 40's-early 50's heart konks out, once the chest Pains start you have a year or so to live, but easily fixed)so it's been 6 months, and I'm recovered, healthy, and after seeing those Ferarri pics, I decided right there I was going to go get me my Pantera!

I found Roger Sharp's white 72 listed, went and drove it with him, called him later that night and said I'd buy the car.

I trailered it home 2 days ago, I've driven it twice now, and it is everything I ever dreamed of and more! I am beyond stoked, and it was a pleasure, and an honor to buy Roger's car from him and his wife.

I'm taking full advantage of the second chance I've been given in life. I spent more than I had factored in to spend, but luckily I have a large list of tasty Top Ramen recipes, which I'll be eating for the next year! lol

I'm literally one of THE happiest guys on earth right now!

I've named her "Snow White" (who I always had a thing for as a kid), and now that she's mine, oh man, she's gonna get treated like a queen. I'm gonna caress her, get to know her Real good, spoil her, and do her really hard occasionally LOL, just so she knows who the Boss is! lol

Here's a pic of her in her new home.

Mike,

What a great story, and thank you for sharing it. It's impressive to hear what you've been through, and how you managed to pull yourself back from the edge. I wish you many, many years of happiness and excitement with your new baby. You will come to appreciate the white. It's so easy to care for, and even of your A/C "needs a re-charge", you barely need it in a white Pantera. This is a great community here, so whatever questions you have, there will always be an abundance of help and answers.

Enjoy!

After building my hotrod Subaru BRZ (a new RWD joint venture between toyota and Subaru)it took so long, and we had so many issues, and I found I was married to my new "tuner" guy, so any adjustments, and tuning, required making an appointment, dropping the car off, usually the finding of something that required the car sit at the shop for a week or more, it was kind of anticlimactic when it was finally finished. It was a beast, on the test drive when I was selling the car, I raced a 2004? Corvette at a stoplight and just smoked his ass. The buyer (a very nice chinese fellow) immediately afterwards said "I will buy car" lol. It was a very cool car, lowered, fast, totally finished and dialed in. I found though that the tuner crowd, and the weekly "cruise" (100-200 cars that meet at a big parking lot every Friday night) was just not for me. Most of them were kids (20-30 years old), most with not much money, lots of lowered cars by cutting the coils, leaving them bouncing and ruined, but "cool", and NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING sounds worse than those coffee can mufflers on an unmodified, automatic, Honda or Nissan. You know what I'm talking about, loud, brappy, and when they "get on it" it takes 15 seconds between shifts, all the while making the most God awful exhaust sounds. There were some nice cars, there was the drift crowd, the lifted, giant tired 4x4 crowd, but I just found that all that just wasn't for me, plus, I'm old now, and most all that went down after my bedtime LOL.

My neighbor, Chuck, owns a sweet blue GT4 clone, big riveted on flares, roll cage, badass car.

One day, I though we had a Hell's Angels pack of bikes pull into the cul de sac, the house was shaking, I knew something was up.

I went outside to find that Chuck had hosted one of the Pantera club meetings/drives at his house, so I was looking at maybe 20 totally badass Panteras parked all along the street just down from my house.

I remember telling Chuck, "I'm saving, and one day I'm going to get one of these cars". I met many of the owners, and the whole crowd of Pantera people were totally cool, offered any help I might have needed when the time came to buying, and they all just struck me as a group of people I wanted to be a part of. This was maybe 4 or 5 years ago. I'd long forgotten, and had been busy building this little rice rocket, when I had my epiphany the other week about what I was really doing car-wise, so now, things happened more quickly than I had expected. I expected the search and journey to find "THE car" for me to be longer, and harder, and I had expected to actually travel around and look at lots of cars.
Financially though, I was still limited to the lower range of available cars. I had one race car in SoCal I was planning on looking at with intentions of putting back to street use (which would have been cool as well. I liked the idea of a totally unreasonable, fire breathing, gutted, roll caged, barely legal, gnarly street car) which would have been cool, but was priced much lower.

After meeting Roger, and taking the test drive in his car, I realized I wanted a nice, completed, fun car to own and enjoy and drive, so I spent more than I had factored to spend, but I know I got a great deal, and I got my new dream car, and I know that the people I meet through owning this car are going to all be people that I'll enjoy knowing, and I'm looking forward to going to some club meetings, and meeting other Pantera owners in my area for lunches or to go for drives, or just to hang out.

I think I've found my new "place" in life, at least in part. I know the people I've met so far are much more "my kind of people", so here, now, it begins.

I took my 3rd drive today, the car is awesome, I got 3 or 4 "thumbs-up" at stoplights, got sideways a little a couple times just because I could, I'm a happy camper.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome, I look forward to participating here on this forum, and to meeting new friends, this is a big turning point in my life.

I'll probably even get healthier and lose some weight because I'm going to be eating nothing but Top Ramen and vegetables for the next year! LOL Just kidding, I'm actually back to work now, but it took a while to recover from the open heart surgery, so all is well.

Welcome Mike Smiler I've driven Roger's car. You bought well.

Please do be careful in your early months of ownership. A mid-engined car introduces a WHOLE new set of attributes regarding all you have learned with front engined/rear drive cars.

When a Pantera rear end REALLY slides out, it is OUT. No early 'telegraphing' of what is about to happen.

Steering into the slide just don't work quite the same on a mid-engine.

You will find yourself just going along for the ride until you scrub off enough speed, either through black rubber marks on the street, or contact with an immovable object.

You can ask me and State Farm what happens when you try a combination of both deceleration techniques. Frowner

This is the car I cut my teeth on, I do have a bit of mid-engined experience, AND, I've spun around in this car on turn 2 at Sears Point on cold tires-one very scary moment. T-2 at Sears is an uphill, right handed, totally blind turn, so I had maybe 40 other cars coming into view (with me pointed backwards) all swerving to miss me! That spin happened so fast I was "both pedals In" before the car was even hald way around, no time to even countersteer.

Roger didn't hold back on our test drive, and what I noticed was the car was super neutral when sideways, like VERY controllable, I was impressed, and the car struck me as pretty darn dialed in.

My plan is to just drive and enjoy the car. I have 4 drives on the car so far (one tankful of gas worth) and nothing but thumbs-up, "hey! Cool Car!" people asking me about the car wherever I stop, I'm LOVING it! This has been my dream car since I was maybe 13.

I plan to just drive and enjoy the car, clean things up, and the only real mod I plan for the future is a full roll cage that ties every corner of the car together, not just the cabin. I want to stiffen the whole car up with a complete endoskeleton, so no more little stress cracks, no creaking pulling out of parking lots, then, later, when I have the money, I plan to put a concourse, show-car paint job, redo the interior, and take the car to the next level of awesomeness.

Well,
it's been 3 or 4 days, as far as my girlfriend is concerned I am AWOL! lol

I've been driving around, showing my friends, enjoying my perfectly running, leakless, loud, absolutely perfect new Pantera!
I took my buddy for a ride yesterday, and punched it full throttle getting onto the freeway for the first time, scared the shit out of both of us! This car is a BEAST! Probably in the 500-600 HP range. acceleration is incredible. Even with the 335 wide "cheater slicks" the wheels broke loose in both 2nd and 3rd!

I just filled the tank for the 4th time, the car runs perfectly. I haven't been more excited or happy in years!

The car is just as Roger said it was, needing nothing, runs perfectly, just a good runner, ready to be driven and enjoyed.

I met a fellow Pantera owner who lives 15 minutes from me, who came over last night and dropped off a bunch of literature and shop manuals for me to borrow and read. He was very nice, and it was very cool to meet another Pantera owner.

My neighbor owns a GT4 clone, with the rivetd on flares (beatiful car) and years ago he had a meeting at his house, where there was probably 15-20 Panteras parked in front of his and my house, where I got a chance to meet many of the Pantera club members (including Roger) and everyone was just so nice, offered any help (I had mentiond I was saving to buy a Pantera some day) and I knew that was a group of people I wanted to be a part of. I'm very happy to have found a new "family", and I'm looking forward to attending the next meeting in a couple weeks.
MT mike the snake (Guest)
I plan to attend one of the next meetings here soon.

There's a very nice gentleman named Ron that lives maybe 15 minutes from me that came over, brought me some cool literature to read, and I plan to go with him to the next meeting.

I''m still in "early to bed, early to rise" mode since my surgery. Getting stronger every day, but I have to limit what I try to do at times.

My journey exploring Snow White's hot body has been keeping me busy. The dwarfs are gone, but there IS a gremlin (I named him Jorge) that is causing electrical issues that I've been troubleshooting.

Jorge is a sly little bugger though, seems as soonas I fix one thing, another part konks out.

SO, I'm taking my time to go through the electricals on the car and get everything working.

Jorge will soon be looking for a new home! lol

There are a couple of ways to stiffen the Pantera 'frame'. The best is also the most complicated: you seam-weld the entire car as a supplement to it's original spot-weld construction. Some of the requisite areas will burn the paint so this is usually done during a restoration followed by a repaint. From the owners that have done this, it results in true race-car handling.

The next is some sort of suspension stiffening attachments underneath. Several of the vendors market bolt-&-weld-on systems front & back. They also seem to work; one vendor ran the famous Silver State Classic in his Pantera so equipped. He passed over a hump-back bridge at 'about' 150mph and according to a course worker, flew 165 feet. The landing left scrape marks in the blacktop for quite a ways but he finished the event, then drove 125 miles back home. A week later he discovered that both front subframe connectors had broken off the tub welds! The only thing holding the lower front suspension on was the aftermarket stiffener system! He hadn't noticed any odd handling at legal speeds.....

Full roll cages protect the driver but do not stiffen up the chassis much unless the cage is also tacked to some/most of the surrounding body panels. A std 2 or 3-point hoop roll bar behind the seats does no stiffening and may not even be necessary; there are several records of crashes and roll-overs- one above 180 mph- and the drivers survived with minor injuries. The stock body construction just behind the seat is essentially a large roll hoop.

When talking about accidents, I always think of the legendary description of the little Piper Cub- "The world's safest airplane! It's barely fast enough to kill you...."

Today, the journey continues.

Snow White has been playing coy with me, she's had me fixing a bunch of minor electrical problems, (blinkers, taillights, headlight, tach,) before she said I could look under her skirt, but today is the day!!!

At 1:30, Snow White will be showing it all! She's going up on a lift, where I'll be cleaning, inspecting, changing the engine and gearbox oils, greasing anything with a grease fitting, and just getting to know her underside, something I've wanted to do since childhood lol.

The only caveat is if it rains. It's not supposed to rain, roads are still damp but safe to putt along at 40 or so for a few miles down to the shop, but if it's wet enough to spray water off the tires, I'll have to wait til tomorrow.
MT mike the snake (Guest)
well, things went sideways pretty quick.

After switching all the fluids, greasing al the u-joints, and cleaning, we went to fire the car up and warm the car up to set the oil levels.

The car started with it's normal VROOM! and then died.

I spent the last 2 days swapping out the unilite module (hard to get up to the distributor) but still no spark.

Tomorrow I'm doing a litle more troubleshooting, and then I'll be looking for a shop to get it running.

This is frustrating because there's not much I can't do myself. I'll find the issue, it'll be something stupid simple I'm sure.

It's jusy weird that it acted up at the same time we worked on it, making me think it was something I did, knocked a wire off, something, but I think it has something to do with the coil or the MSD box.

We'll know tomorrow after noon.
MT mike the snake (Guest)
It turned out the distributor gear shaft pin sheared.

Great timing, 3 tankfuls of gas into my ownership.

Car's completely apart right now, but the diz is fixed and ready to install tomorrow morning.

Plugs are pulled so I can crank and see oil pessure, then we find #1 TDC and locate the distributor position, reinstall plugs and we should be back in business.

It's been a hell of a week.
MT mike the snake (Guest)
My issue is deeper than that. Something is jammed in the oil pump, locking it up. Any pin will break with this condition. Twice in my case, the second pin sheared instantly. This second roll pin had a piece of hardened steel wire punched through the roll pin for extra strength and it broke instantly.

SO, I have to drop the pan, pull the pump, find what's stuck in there, hopefully it's nothing critical, and then put the whole car all back together.

The journey is starting to suck.
jtpanterajtpanteraMember
Sure they can. Which part would you prefer to break instead? I remember a pic that George posted years ago of the oil pump shaft twisted like a pretzel. The pin is cheaper. The broken pin is generally the result of another issue. While I am sure there exist defective pins, like everything else, usually another player is at fault and it is the safety weak link.

I suspect that the dist shaft is binding in the oriface above the timmerman collar.

I've been running HV oil pumps for 30+ years and never sheared a pin. Even while tracking Panteras with 50wt racing oil. Some say HV pumps shear pins - not my experience. I believe crap in either pump is more likely the culprit vs the extra strain of pushing addition oil.
bosswrenchbosswrenchMember

Sheared dist pin is AFAIK a Cleveland- only issue? Can't some vendor come up with a pin made of kryptonite or something? Why do we still live with this threat?


No- its a FORD pushrod engine issue. 289s thru 460s also shear the exact same safety-pin & twist pump driveshafts. Drag on the distributor gear- of which NO one checks clearance, or junk in the oil cause 90+% of failures, but adding to the load with unneeded high-(trouble) pumps is unwise. When Ford went to SOHC & DOHC engines in the '90s, those pumps are direct crank-driven. And they have their own failure modes. As GM found when they copied Ford's new pumps. Nothing's perfect.
rockyrockyMember
From one of George P's posts.....

The discussion here is regarding a hardened oil pump drive shaft or not, but the discussion is germane.


quote:


The whole crux of the problem is the Ford oil pump, its a gear rotor type pump, which puts out a smoother flow of oil than a gear pump like those used in a chevy, but the draw back is the Ford pump does not pass debris very well. It tries to lock up and stop turning.

The stock Ford oil pump drive shaft twists very easily. It is not unusual to pull a motor apart and find the stock oil pump drive shaft with one or two full twists in it! But the little roll pin never shears.

The fear is that the oem oil pump drive shaft will snap in two, so all hot rodders & racers replace the stock oil pump drive shaft with a heavy duty unit. The heavy duty drive shaft doesn't "give" when the oil pump passes debris, so the oem roll pin shears instead. This is not just a Cleveland problem, it is a Ford problem in general, as all the V8s employ a gear rotor type oil pump.

Ford didn't design the roll pin to shear, but they did design the drive shaft to deflect (twist) intentionally, so as to allow the oil pump to pass debris. When we smart hot rodders replace the shaft, we defeat Ford's engineering.

The nice part about the roll pin shearing is that the distributor stops turning, the motor stops running, and there is no damage to the motor.
MT mike the snake (Guest)
1.5 hours and we begin to pull the pan and oil pump, and the story will be told.

New oil pump is on order already, should be wed or thursday due to the holiday, but at least I'll find out what's happening today.

I pray it's just some random piece of crap, and not a sign of anything more serious.
bosswrenchbosswrenchMember
No-Quarter, the problem (if it is a problem) is, the Ford drive gear roll pin is physically smaller in dia. hence weaker in shear than the roll pins in old Chevys, which also use spur gears. GM spur-gear pumps pulse a lot but are very tolerant of debris in the oil. Gearotor pumps give a nearly pulse-less flow of oil, which is another reason why gearotor pumps are used in most dry-sump racing engines, and current Ford & GM engines since the mid-90s.
MT mike the snake (Guest)
My journey's plot thickens.

I got a call from my brother yesterday morning, and he told me me my father has cancer, and may not make it. We are waiting on tests, and he's going in for surgery soon.

When it rains it pours apparently. I'm praying my Dad makes it through this OK.
MT mike the snake (Guest)
Life's been hard lately. I just went through this myself 4 months ago, hoping I would wake up from open heart surgery.

I've re-injured myself trying to work on my car myself.

My neighbor Chuck has offered his help, but he's a busy guy, so I'm at the mercy of him and his schedule.

The car is just a few hours away from being back together.

With everything going on, I know that getting my car back up and running will be a huge load of my back.

Presently I have so many things I'm worrying about, I'm on the verge of a breakdown.

There's just too much out of my control that I can't do anything about.
joeajoeaMember
Yeah, life is hard. I bought my dream car about three years ago, "turn key" so I was told. On my way home from picking it up, the head liner let go and had to hold it up with one hand and drive with the other. Shortly after, the clutch had to be replaced, ZF issues, then the slave cylinder, followed by shocks and bushings that also had to be replaced. Soon after, the fuse box decided to fall apart, had no choice but to replace that too, etc, etc... The list goes on and on. No one is to blame. I am a big boy, I looked at it, I bought it, Caveat Emptor. Nobody else cares nor should they. I bought a 43 year old car. The guys here were and are a great resource of information, Thank you.
So, how are things today? Well, I have to rape my retirement to pay for rehab for my kid, my brother is dying of liver cancer, my father has just been diagnosed with Alzhieimer's and I don't think my marriage is going to make it through this shit storm. I do not want anyone's sympathy, it is my problem.
At least my car is running good, for now...
MTS, just to let you know, you are not the Lone Ranger.
MT mike the snake (Guest)
I sincerely hope things go better for you.

I'm not trying to make like I'm the lone ranger. I just always join and participate in whatever forums I happen to be interested in at the time, and that usually ends up telling my story, good or bad, and in this case, it's gone badly for me.

I realize there's others out there with MUCH bigger problems than mine.

People from this forum have offered, and helped me out with my car, and I plan to pay it forward for sure, and anything I can do to help anyone when I'm able, I will freely offer my help. "Do unto others as you would have others do to you" holds true here.

I am very grateful for Chuck and Ron for helping me work on my car. We are close to the point where I can take things and finish things myself.

With the help of Chuck Banks and Ron Southern, we got the car running.

I drove the car for a couple tankfuls, noticed someticking, so I decided to check the valves.

With the valve covers off, I found evidence of more rockers failing.

The car was advertised, and I was told the had Jesel Rockers, which turned out not to be true.
The car had T&D rockers instead.

I packed the whole lot of them up and sent them in to T&D, and they were able to rebody my set, using what good parts were left, and I got away without spending too much money. T&D was great to deal with.

I had planned on replacing the valvesprings as well, bought a new set, but couldn't get them off without removing the head, and since I'm just trying to eek out enough life from this engine to last until I get to rebuilding it, I left the old springs in place. In trade, I'm keeping the RPM's down low, so I don't have anything funny happen due to old/soft springs.

I installed the rockers, torqued everything to spec, buttoned the car up. She fired right up, sounded good, but about a mile down the road, the motor dropped a hole completely. I chugged it home, thinking the worst.

When I removed the valve cover, I found a rocker shaft nut 1/4" from one of the oil drain holes (LUCKY), and found that the studs for the shafts were all loose. One had loosened, the pushrod fell over, no harm, no foul.

I took the whole valvetrain back off, tightened and locktited ALL the studs, and reinstalled the rockers.

This time around, the engine fired, sounded good, and stayed that way.

I even took a shot at adjusting my injection with my Unisync tool, but all the holes were within one number of each other, so I didn't make any adjustments.

I DID find that the whole linkage setup is EXTREMELY sensitive. The screws I did touch made big chaanges with tiny movements to the screws, so I put them back where they were.

Whatever I did, it actually made it run a bit better, better idle, and smoother down low.

I've now put a couple more tankfuls on the car, and it is performing perfectly (knocking on wood) and has more power than I can imagine!

I've only floored it a couple times, and WOW, the thing just pulls harder the higher it revs.

I let off at what I'd say is around 6000, high, but nothing too high, but it was starting to scare me with how hard it was pulling in 3rd.

I'm really happy to have my car back running. It runs well. It runs rich down low and at idle, and needs a tune, but it's running well enough for me to own and enjoy and drive it now.

In the future I'm going to look into getting the car tuned with the old electronics if at all possible.

Later in the future, the engine will be rebuilt and made new.
