    HELLO

    I just wanted to say a quick Hi From Canada. I have been driving my car now for two weeks and have to say it is the nicest car I have owned. It has a few quirks but what older car doesn't. I do have a couple of questions for some of the more experienced guys. If Someone would be willing to help me out that would be great. I have been lurking about and just reading for the last few days. I'm happy to learn that I can take all the go fast goodies of of a 5.0 mustang to get a little more power. I will post some pics up in a couple of days, once I get my camera working and the snow stops so everyone can see her in all her beauty. Plus I have to open up a photobucket account to download from. Thanks inadvance the frozen Canadian...... or Jacob

        Thanks guys for all the welcomes. I LOVE this car but it has a few problems. As they all do at 20 years old. Is there anything I should watch for while working on this car to bring it back to it's former glory??? Thanks in advance Jacob

          Welcome Jacob!

          I would be concerned with the brake lines rusting through. Happened on my dads 85 stang and my 87 Crown Vic...twice on the vic actually.

            Brake lines, fuel lines, and frame rust are the biggest things to look for on a Panther that's seen several winters.
