Suddenly I feel like building a gasser...lol...

Gasser is not a bad idea. Finished out the edge more tonight. The edge was the hard part:

Winters a little slow in the shop. I tend to do more electronic work but I have made some bucks for shaping the front fenders. I need good weather to get outside to do more sanding:

What ?... You guys don't let your dog on the couch ?...lol...

Now THATS what I call a dining room! Perfect art for IN the house!

Man, if your not Single...does your Wife have a Sister? Single of coarse! LOL

I suppose the obvious question is .. "how did you get it in there?" Or was it assembled there? .. kind of like the guy who built the sailboat in his basement. Great conversation piece.

My wife and I rolled it in through the sliding glass doors and across the livingroom. We never use that area anyway, this is way better use of the space..lol..

Put a seat in it and watch TV like at a drive-in movie.

Picture size too big.

G'day All,
My name is Jesse, Im a new member from Australia and I just wanted to say Hello! While I don't own a Pantera my current project car does have a Cleveland engine, it's an Australian 1972 Ford Fairmont you may recognise the body shape from the mad max movies. Anyhow, it's a work in progress, Im building the engine as a basic 410 stroker, with CHI 3V heads and dual plain intake. I look forward to getting to know some of you and learning more about Panteras, cheers,
Jesse

Another pic when I got it home

Nice car mate! Steering wheel seems to be on the wrong side tho eh? Are road legal cars allowed to be left hand drive in Aus?

Hello SciFi, yes you can legally drive L hand drive cars here providing they are 30 yrs old or more. If it is younger than 30 it must be converted to R hand drive. Quite a few American muscle cars running around over here now, it's often cheaper than restoring an Australian car.
Cheers,

Jesse

CHI makes some very good products. I am using their 3V heads and intake manifold on my engine.

Yes the CHI stuff is pretty good. While we have mostly Cleveland motors in Australian fords (and few windsors), good 4V heads are so expensive and hard to find here now that brand new alloy heads can be had for similar money. I was initially going to buy AFD heads but found out they are now cast in Asia so I wasn't keen on that.
I bought the manifold and 208cc runner 3Vs bare, I just need to take them into the engine shop to get fitted with quality hardware. Then can fit them to the bottom end which is already built.
Fun times ahead!
