Pantera # 6392 Project

This is the directioin I am going.

Looking good
Looks like there are a spoiler on the rear end, any pictures of the rear end?


Kjeld

Thanks.
Here is a view from the rear.

Todays progress.
Gotta get rid of those flames!

Rick, the absolute worst part of adding Gr-04 flares is when you cut the stock fender flares off. I know guys that dithered for MONTHS actually mounting them because they just didn't want to put a Sawzall on the car. When you do, keep the pieces around; someone will need them (maybe you!) Good luck- J DeRyke

Thanks. ... good advice.
If my car was a nicer example of the breed it would likely be a very difficult decision.

Rick -

It looks like you are making good progress.

Did you just take a grinder to your front valence? That came off pretty quick!

Looks good - keep the pressure on!

Chuck. ..
The valance is still on the car. .. it is just that smashed. What you see is the new valance in front of the car. Thinking a cut off wheel would be the best tool for the job.

A little more welding and some grinding and one will be done.

One down....three to go.

The latest on a slow going project.

Another view.

...and another.

Looks good,
Keep us posted.

Would you consider selling your old wheel arches that you just cut out?
or about to cut out

Thanks.

Not sure....let me give it some thought.

Nice work, Rick -

I am going to have to make a trip down so I can see it in person!

Last 2 for the day

Cool project Rick. I look forward to seeing it unfold....

I think you're off to a great start! I love the group4 cars. What are you gonna do for wheels?

It is a slow moving project so I really appreciate you guys and the encouragement.

I am going to use Bassett wheels for now. The price was right and they made them to fit my 345/35ZR15 tires.

They are from Kirk.... Along with the rear spoiler. Two of the best built aftermarket fiberglass pieces I have ever bought.

Rick,
Looks like your flares fit pretty well. Who did you get them from?
Mike

I got them at Pantera Performance. They really did not fit all that well and it took a lot of finesse to get them to where they are now. It also took three sets of flares and about six months to get the last set to make it happen. They even sent me the wrong ones and would not refund my money....just a credit with them after the fact.
Sorry....Dennis is a nice and knowledgeable guy but my parts buying experience sucked.

Thanks, that's excellent feedback. I like Dennis as well, but sometimes things don't work out.
Mike

Rick's pretty busy right now, but I thought people would want to see this....

You can tell he's smiling under the mask!

One More...
