I once owned a 71 Pantera (#1683)...hence my username. It was great car and I modded that car to no end. I even replaced the 351 Cleveland with a 5.4L DOHC motor. I am quite certain I was the first to ever do it. It was such a fun car to own, modify, and drive. As expected, the prices have gone up considerably since I owned mine. I may even have pictures somewhere...
