BTW...that first pic with it in the mirror and the side of your car is really awesome!

Nothing like the roar of a center mounted 351 Cleveland!

That's what i thought, too. I always figured that a Pantera was bigger than a C3. I guess not. A former co-worker owns a Pantera. Nice cars. Funny thing is that most people have NO clue what they are. "I just saw a Lamborghini!!" Ummm...no. :)

Nice pictures. I like Panteras as well- 1971-1974's. Looks like you are having some nice weather in Southern New Jersey since you are out driving!

Thanks guys for not bashing on my Ford power car.

Yeah, Pat and I had a good time today. We found a lot of open road with no one around so we could play safe.
