Aftermarket Steering Wheel?
by Corey Price 30 Aug '16

30 Aug '16

Can anyone tell me which vendor sells this steering wheel? In particular, it has three split stainless steel spokes. If this is your car and picture that I lifted from the internet, I mean no harm. I've heard it sand that mimicry is the highest form of flattery! Any help is appreciated!

Well aren't you quite the diplomat! Here's a guy who is so proud of all the work done on his unique car, others cheerfully praise it... and you have to ruin the mood with a most insensitively expressed opinion. Even if your point has merit (which is somewhat antiquated as it neglects current auction results and trends) there is a far nicer way of sharing it; don't you think? No problem leaving your car as is but how about a personality modification to someone less rigid, and churlish?

MSD FI Update
by Stephen 30 Aug '16

30 Aug '16

We've logged about 5K miles since going through the engine and installing MSD's Atomic Fuel Injection in our Pantera. The install instructions for the FI suggest it is best to first run the car with just the fuel injection set up, then, when all the bugs have been worked out of the FI, switch the timing to the MSD FI computer. We took our car out for its first run last night after finally getting around to switching to digital control of the timing. WOW. If I had known the impact of digital timing I would have switched a long time ago. Talk about smooth - idle, decel, accel, everything just feels so much smoother. Our initial settings for the Timing are 18 degrees at 1,000 BTDC and 36 at 2,500 BTDC. Before switching over I checked that the timing marks on our vibration dampener were correct using a piston stop. Hmmm - TDC was off by 5.5 degrees. The engine build sheet indicates it is an SFI damper Makes it sort of important to confirm the dampener has not rotated. Engine bay cooling fan is also installed, along with a SPAL PWM controller. Finally, rear window goes in next. Stephen Nelson 5332

"It's an abomination." -Disgust and hatred? "Look, someone has to point up these mindless modifications to cars that are now ( who knows why ) worth something." - They've always been worth something.

"And THAT is exactly why De Tomasos, Panteras in general will NEVER be taken seriously by the Motoring World because of the ill conceived "additions" that are foisted on a great many of these cars." -That may also be true, but why would you care whether they are or not?

We all have the right to express our thoughts knowing all may not agree.That's what free speech is all about right? I try to see the work done as a labor of love for cars and for it's engineering craftsmanship. It's that unrelenting human factor that makes people to do such things. It's what drives some to push the existing threshold beyond what we know. Beauty is in the eye of the creator, how you perceive it is of course your choice. The "Motoring World" would be a very,very boring place without people like Steve and others of like mind who are well respected for the modifications they've created. And not just Panteras. Endless "mindless" innovations have come from people like him that have guided the course of automotive history and evolution. I'm sure you are aware of this and can respect that. You still may not like it Nancy and that's ok. It can be a challenge and it may sound so esoteric, but if you can relearn and allow yourself to find some appreciation and acceptance of things initially uncomforting then perhaps you'll reduce bother and add bit more enjoyment in your life.

And THAT is exactly why De Tomasos, Panteras in general will NEVER be taken seriously by the Motoring World because of the ill conceived "additions" that are foisted on a great many of these cars. Granted I'm not saying that the usual upgrades like cooling, electrical and fuel systems shouldn't be addressed but clam shell rear deck lids is going WAY TO FAR. Flame away, I think most of you guys have less that good taste when it come to your car mods.
