I've always wanted a Pantera. I'm finally starting to seriously consider getting one. Have any of you guys had any experience with these cars? The engine is a 351 Cleveland. Any opinions will be appreciated. Thanks! RGR

The ZF Transaxle was not even close to being one of ford's best, maybe the most complex and expensive, but anything ZF made is hardly "the best"Originally posted by jackers
Also, be very critical of the transmission. The trannys are some of the best Ford put into a car but they are very (VERY) expensive. I was seriously considering buying one a year ago, and everyone I talked to said to ensure the tranny is perfect. Keep in mind, most are, but it would suck to spend all that money on the car just to drop a huge amount on the tranny if it took a poop.

That puts you right around 41.

It sounds stupid when 16 year old punks say it.
