I can see my license just floating away when I look at those massive turbos.

I love those exhaust pipes on that middle one. Somehow I don't think they'd suit my daily drive though :D

LOL!!….i'd try really hard to make it my daily driver!!!!

I just came across this page and saw that there is a Pantera PE set in here (just over 1/2 > 2/3 of the way down) that may be of use to you: http://www.acustion.com/index.html2e.html

Thanks, bud!, I shoulda bought a set when I first saw them.....a couple years ago....been searching for that one, or the Studio 27 set....found out that they have been discontinued.....I will keep checking on ebay.

All the time, especially with paint. Looking forward to seeing what you've 'decided on'. Great to see you back on this Dann.

I'm dying to know what engine this is going to have. I thought the 427 TT was cool enough, but what do you have in store for us now?

Keep us posted.

Hey, everyone!, here is my next update....FINALLY!!, thanks for being patient!

-Photo 1: I got a huge amount started on the rear frame work!...i need to finish the built-in roll bar, some intercooler mounts, and all the suspension bits.

-Photo 3; It works really well leaving the old rear area to help keep things all lined up while i fabricate. After i attach a rear mounting point, then i will get rid of all the rest of the original stuff.

-Photo 4: Here i made some really strong contact points around the interior tub...makes for a quick, no-brainer assembly.

-Photo 8: I needed to cut open the pulley access panel for more realism...i need to SB a better one.

-Photo 9: For anyone whose built this kit before, you know how sloppy/weak the front contact tabs are...i added better ones.
