New guy with question

Love the licence plate, good luck with your search

It has Wisconsin plates on it -- sorry, but I don't know anything about the car at all.

If you knew the VIN you could search for any information on the Prova Mo registry.

If you know anyone in law enforcement, you could ask them to run the plate to get an address..........

Best of luck.

Nobody I know.

I think that car sold on ebay a year or two ago... Perhaps three or four years ago ?? Time gets away and it's later than you think.

A quick Youtube video of it. Video

That car meets my ideal set up visually.

Is the concensus that those are group 4 flares or totally custom?

Any guess on wheel width and tire size?

I am guessing there is a bundle of snakes under the rear deck as well.
.

I have all kinds of info on it, but going to bed at the moment. Almost bought it a few years ago, but it required high octane fuel, not pump gas for CA. Nice aluminum engine though I recall. I will upload info and photos later, as the martini just kicked in, and I am toast. Why not just buy my Group 4?...make an offer if you like it. https://www.flickr.com/photos/...s/72157639222739254/

I would much appreciate you digging all those pics out. Would really like to know some details on it.

Love your car, it is incredible, guessing it is in the unobtanium range tho.

Nice from this view also.

Wonder what the tire sizes are. They really look good and fill the wheel well nicely.

I totally agree. I wonder if there is any interference?

I would like to know the tire size, wheel size with Backspace depth as well. Front and rear. I can't quite make out the tread but they look like BFG TKO tires....kinda.

Hopefully Jan has some of that information.

Tires look like Toyo R888's.

What is the biggest size available in those? Those look to be around 345 wide.

The tread pattern is the same at Toyo R8888, and they make a 34530ZR19.
Also any Pantera that looks like your choice or DOES 200 usually costs six figures to build or buy. If either comes close to your final requirements then it's usually easier, cheaper with less disappointments and lost time to talk with a loan agent instead of build yourself.

I agree with you on the cost to build.

Do those Toyo's look 30 profile to you? I have a Bridgestone 345 35 R19 that has a smaller sidewall than those. I love the look of the meaty sidewall on this car. Works on some, not on others.
.

Love that car, have had this video in favorites for a while.
In the video YouTube

you can sort of guess it says AVON on the sidewalls.

Good luck with your search!

Avons are extremely good tires. That explains the sidewall. Not sure I like the style of the spokes, somehow not a perfect match for a period bodystyle, but I am nitpicking now.

Thanks for throwing that up for us to see.

What the hey...you guys don't eat, work or sleep? Ha ha the passion! Well, I gots to eat, but will give some photos for now and give more info later. I did load some photos into my Flickr account below that I had on file from June 2006 when it was for sale. I will load more detail on it later, but at least some photos for you for now. Like I said, it needed race fuel, not pump gas octane: https://www.flickr.com/photos/...s/72157650081295996/

But just sayin, you should slam down the bucks on mine instead.

Anyone else notice the "Spal" style fan on the inside of the rear passenger wheel well from the pics Does 200 uploaded to Flickr?

Yes,

Transaxle cooler?
.

I remember that car when it was for sale on Ebay. I talked to the owner and he told me quite a bit on that car and I am sure you would not be disappointed with that car performance wise. As long as the current owner has taken care of her. That cat had some very nice detail work done to her Jans pics don't so much of, like the latchs on the hood...very trick. The fan in the wheel well I would guess to be a engine oil cooler.

Very interesting car. I had a fan set up like that in the rear wheel well of my blue Pantera where we had relocated the AC condenser.

Thank You!

Found this video of the car on YouTube.

I've seen this car at car shows in Appleton, WI a couple years ago. If I remember correctly it was from Menasha, but do not remember who the owner was/is.

Great build! Is there such a thing as too fat?
