Dave,
What happened to the Picture I took of you? Folks, this guy looks really cool in his bunny suit with footies.

Now, can you build me one! I am ready the old 86 SE needs some new life in her....

If you do not stop, I will call Blackrams again and bother him with questions and pictures etc...

Damn I love that car!

Now when you get it done sell it to me!

blackrams JUL 27, 09:34 PM
NO bother, did you get hold of Ed? He really does know one hell of a lot about these little mid-engined monsters.

Hmmm, funny how Blackrams left, right after snapping this photo

Seriously, personal protection is everything, and when the gelcoat is applied, you are essentially spraypainting polyester resin. I love the smell of styrene in the morning.

OK, let's be honest here, would anyone want to stick around with a guy dressed like this if that person had none of the protective personal equipment. I was afraid to breath, much less touch anything.

Blackrams,

I contacted ED again and we talked for over an hour, he does know so much about Fieros it is frighting!
Anyway he straightened me out on the wheel issues and again we talked about engine concepts! Damn you just have to love this guy. As you stated "If I do not know the answer, I know someone who does!" you were right.
Thank you for the great advise, now just get the Pantera done so I can buy one!

Good luck on your project it is coming along nicely!

Nice to see a man that is sharper then his tools!!! (rare these days)

After all is said and done, think you guys can get around to doing some GT5S fenders?

blackrams JUL 28, 09:28 PM
I'll let Dave answer that question, but we've talked about the fender option. I'm current'y trying to resolve what style rear wing should go on the Pantero II. Considering the Delta Wing that came out on Panteras, but haven't decided what will look best and provide any function, if any can be gained. The front spoiler will be a inlet/reversed wing style the provides some down force. Panteras were known for getting light in the front end at higher speeds and this style spoiler should help in the down force.
