#16 One of my personal favorites of the show....should have won loudest engine IMHO but....

#17 Another one of my favorites. The green on this Pantera is unbeleivable. Almost black until it gets in the sunlight then a dark metallic almost Emerald color. Beautiful!!

It was an awesome show. For someone like me just getting into Panteras it was amazing to see the diversity of tastes and exocution. Literally from bone stockers to skies the limit wild. Funny thing was is that no matter what their personal taste was ALL the cars got attention. No pretenciousness at all.

George it was great to meet you and your son. Congrats to both of you again.

Thank you for posting the pictures Miles,
Art

No problem. I'm still sorting through the other 70 I took.

Miles

Thanks Miles. Some awesome cars! More pics!!

Thank you to the Pence's for all their help at this year's Holiday Happening. We also appreciate all the owners who brought out their outstanding cars and to those enthusiasts who shared a phenomenal day in the sun with us. The band "Earthquake" with Rick Flores on bass was great and the Mexican feast and birthday cake worked out just right. This was our largest attendance in the last 10 years and we look forward to hosting another event in 2007. Thank you! The Adlers and Sacketts - PI Motorsports, Inc.

Okay got some more. These are mostly misc shots, interiors, rims, odd things, and things I want to incorporate into my Pantera (when I get it). A lot of it is probably old hat to some of you veterans but then maybe not.

Thought this was an interesting idea

Can't think of a better use for rubber balls...my dog however would disagree!!

Can you guess what type of DeTomaso this is....?

We don't need no stinkin' bags!!!!

This is the engine bay of the red Mangusta. Nice use of wrinkle finishes. Even did the alternator and a/c compressor.

The red Mangusta

Talk about odd mirrors

Take a Sunbeam Alpina, stuff in a Ford 260, and go racing. Gotta love anything named after a horse or a cat >

Love this color too!!

This is the interior to the green Pantera on the first set of posts. Full leather....

Very sane engine bay on the Blue Pantera from the first set of pics.

Doing this

Vanity plates abound!!

Duh!!

Can you think of a better use for an umbrella in SoCal?!?!?!?

The shoes match the dress...

Nice

Under construction in the PIM shop.

sometimes white is the best color.

Nice fresh air system.

Intake for the previous fresh air system

Sweet rims

Gauges in Italian anyone???

Last one.

Thought this was an interesting statement....This car doesn't meet any safety regulations so its exempt. Have fun!!

Now that I did all that can someone tell me how to post multiple pictures??

Miles

Wow thanks for all the pics...thats some amazing machinery, my wife is starting to come around to me getting a Detomaso, so all those pics helped!!

Great pics!

I've gone to this even for the last three years and this year I was blown away by how many cars there were! Just awesome to see. Thanks PI! I'll take a look at the pictures we snapped, and add some.

great pics Miles. Thanks for providing them. Great work!

Miles, when you left click on the "new" button, a drop down menu gives you 3 choices, dicussion, private topic, or photo album. You chose the first option, "discussion". Next time you want to post multiple pictures, choose the third option, "photo album", and load those pictures away!

Here are my pics. Some of them obviously of the same cars, but they're so cool that you don't mind seeing them twice right?

Those are some crazy dark colored cars. Makes a guy start to wonder about white!!

WOW. What a terrific herd of absolutely beautiful cars. My hat is off to all of you.

I received the pictures from my photographer. Of course, I'm saving the best shots for the magazine. Miles & Chris did such a good job, there wasn't much I could add anyway. I put together 4 collages of things not already posted, moments missed, unique angles, etc. enjoy.

Wow! Sorry I missed it! Too bad you guys are so far away! Oh well, maybe next year! Thanks for sharing the picts.

Wow that sure looks like it was an awesome event. I think next year some of us are going to have to rent a trailer and bring our cars there for the winter!

Thanks for posting the pics!
