>>>Absolutely.  Actually, Wilkinson built at least one slushbox Pantera,

using a Renault transaxle.  Everything was custom, meaning big $$$, but it IS

possible.



I've occasionally considered what I would do with my life if I were involved

in a motorcycle accident and left partially paralyzed.  I decided long ago

the Cobra and GT-350 would get C-6's, and the Pantera would go down to

Wilkinson, and then I'd be back in business!
