Gray Gregory RIP….
by Mike Drew 28 Jul '25

28 Jul '25

All, I was contacted today by Kirby Schrader who notified me that beloved Houston Pantera and vintage race stalwart Gray Gregory passed away peacefully just before midnight, after a valiant 18-month battle with ALS, otherwise known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. Just one year ago this weekend we were together at Road America, where he transferred ownership of his Chevron F2 car to John Taphorn and cheered him on as he raced it for the first time. Ever-giving, here is a pic of Gray analyzing the data from John’s first-ever laps and offering advice…. I loved him like a brother. We had so many wonderful adventures together, including multiple classic car rallies in Europe in my GT-350 some 20 years ago. I will miss him so much….

Windshield trim needed
by Mike Drew 25 Jul '25

25 Jul '25

All, A fellow in the UK is trying to restore his Pantera, which was fitted with a flush mounted windscreen and the four-piece stainless trim was discarded. I know loads of you have done the same thing and have your trim gathering g dust in your garages. He would very much like to buy it. Please contact me off-list and let me know what you have and what you want for it. Thanks! Mike Sent from my iPad

I would love to attend and help, but frankly, I am too too hesitant to run an ORR. I did a few SCCA hillclimbs many years ago, and was unable to commit 100% to the drive. Also, for some reason -- they have always been close to when the Pantera is racing. Once I get more time in plane, I will fly up and support you all. P.S. you can still sponsor the Pantera.

5533 wins at Road America
by Asa Jay Laughton 21 Jul '25

21 Jul '25

Steve Lisa finished first place in Vintage AP with a best lap time of 2:38.209. His Pantera (05533) built to mimic Group 3 period specs was tweaked several times in practice sessions over two days. Steve’s strategy to get best times in qualifying worked out well. I had to leave prior to the last race but Steve updated me by text just a while ago. Kudos to Steve, his team of crack specialists wrenching on the car, and to the endurance of Pantera 05533. Also at Road America was Ron McCall with his heavily modified and race prepared Pantera. Both cars had a lot of fun and got a -lot- of attention in the paddock, parade, and car show.

From Alain Guerin, sent directly to me instead of the forum. Translated: Yes, I've done it twice and each time I've been very scared of breaking the windshield, but it works!

For irrational reasons my brain was putting both pieces together with the screws on the outside. Yes, first to admit I can do “the dumb” sometimes. 😁 I too had difficulty with the spring socket thing. In my case one of the ends was a bit tweaked making it even harder, but I did get it in.

The mounting plate is screwed to the car. If you remove it and attach the mirror to it, how then would you propose screwing it back to the car? 😜 Mike—the mirror just snaps in and out. It takes no little amout of force. I advocate constant pressure rather than percussion.

Doug Braun has offered that you need to whack it into place by hitting a piece of wood held against the mirror base with a hammer, but this makes me a little nervous so close the windshield. Is this the only way or can someone offer another suggestion?
