Panteras are soooo cool!    :cooldancing:

I was just watching the TV show American Muscle Car.  One of the guys on there said that Mopar guys are laser loyal.  He said that we are so loyal that no other car exists to us.  LOL

He might be right... with some of us.

Good to know, thanks Chryco.  Like Matt70 I really like Panteras.  Thought waht a cool idea, Italian looks with American power but I've heard surprisingly they don't handle as well as one would imagine....

Another Italian/American combo I thought about buying was an Intermeccanica Italia.  The one I looked at was black, had factory Magnum 500 style 15" rims and from the factory Holman Moody Boss 302 with over 400hp, most had regular 351 Windsor/Cleveland engines.  The suspension looked like something straight from a 70's kit car, parts availablity was nil as some parts had to be sourced from Fiats, Alphas...decided it would be more of a headache in the long run, but it was a beautiful car.  The front reminded me of a Ferrari Dino and the back of a Ferrari Daytona Spyder.

1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.

Pantera's are neat ,  My Old man's neigbor just sold his and it was one of the mini lamborghini looking ones. The owner was really tall and when he drove it he had to tilt his head as to not hit the roof of the car.

My absolute favourite non Mopar is a 1967 Chevy Impala 4 Door Sports Sedan (Pillarless), and I'm fortunate enough to own one  :cooldancing: I've been rebuilding it over the past year or so, and it's 99.9999% complete and ready for registration.




The other 2 would be a 1970 Chevelle SS, and 90 & 110 Land Rover Defenders (any year)  :2thumbs:

I had a buddy that had one of those. I drove it for awhile when my car was broke down. The frame rotted away so he scrapped it. The outside and interiour were beautiful. People couldn't believe this thing was in the scrap yard.

I've never seen a sport sedan.  I like how the back looks sort of like a fastback.  I remember when I was in automechanic school there was an Impala SS427 with a 4 speed, I think it was an SS.  Huge car but it looked really cool.  They had something like that in the James Belushi movie The Principal.
I guess it was a '68.
