Subject: What is an "L" model?

Date: Mon, 14 Apr 1997 08:31:35 -0700



Hi all,



I've been reading with enthusiasm all the posts that come across here. I

have quite an extensive archive of really great stuff, such as the recent

post from Mike Drew on ZF gearbox's, the one summarizing air cleaners, all

the wheel and tire data, and the electrical suggestions.  This list is great.



Now to my question.  Through all the posts and outside reading I've done, I

still can not distinguish what an "L" model is.  I keep reading about

pre-L, L, and late L model cars.  Forgive me, I'm clueless.  After looking

at hundreds of photos and descriptions, I still can't figure it out.  I'm

beginning to know what I want for a Pantera as far as the body and interior

styling go, but I'm getting confused as how to most accurately describe it.

I hate sounding ignorant, and I appreciate everyones patience.



By the way, it turns out I'm going to have to miss the Vegas event this

year (would have been my first year).  I'll be there at the end of this

week and leaving next monday.  My girlfriend has some committments on that

same weekend so we made the decision to plan for next year.  I was so

looking forward to meeting and learning more first hand.  Since my plan for

purchase was for two years, I still have time.  Next year for sure, I'll be

at the Vegas event.
