I'm working on a 72 and I ordered a new 8920 adapter, then after reading your post ...I tapped the glass and it came up! I quicl=kly canceled my order. They train pilots to tap gauges as a first check.

This web site has a PDF of the 1973 Car and Driver review of a Pantera. Click on the PDF link towards the top: http://wildaboutcarsonline.com/cgi-bin/pub9990262549620.cgi?itemid=99904730… (Depending on your email reader you may need to cut and paste to make one long link) I follow them on Twitter (@saveautohistory), they occasionally have interesting info. Since Panteras were sold through Lincoln Mercury dealers the text in the tweet was "1973 Mercury - DeTomaso Pantera Road Test. How Did It Stack Up?".

Wow....Toyotas Sure Have Gotten Bigger!
by Mike Reilly 11 Aug '16

My house & garage were getting electrical work done today so I drove my Pantera to work. I parked next to a Toyota SUV. The contrast in vehicle size was astonishing so I had to snap a picture to share. I can’t imagine if I ever hit one of these head on! My roof was way below it’s door handles. And to think Toyotas used to be small economy cars. Mike Sent from Mail for Windows 10 My house & garage were getting electrical work done today so I drove my Pantera to work.

A little excitement for a Wednesday morning...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8okUeyx-Ds I love seeing all these cars out there dicing it up on the track, especially the Muira. This was circa 1978 before some of these cars became unobtanium for mere working-class mortals. Enjoy! A little excitement for a Wednesday morning...

"Hey! That looks like a Pantera; only smaller!" Amazing how small the Pantera is compared to newer cars.
