I was lucky enough to have Fred, his wife and his great car show up and compete
with me in my own back yard.  This is after much BEGGING to get some
Panteras out there to come to the all Ford show in Richmond VA last year.  It
was no suprise that Fred (or his car) was one of two cars that got two awadrs
that day.  His car is quite fantastic and it's hard to believe that he dosn't
win where ever he goes.  Just the wood work alone.....well never mind....I think
what must have nailed him was  the monagramed fuzzie dice hanging from the
rear view.  I even told the Judge it was NOS....but he won anyway OOPS :)
      Come on back, Fred; there are still guys talking about your car.  I was
at the local cruise in Saterday night with Dave (the other red Pantera)...and
I was asked if "the OTHER red Pantera was comming"....I will post when the show
is this year and Fred can wip us again...a real pleasure to have that car (and
Fred and his wife) in the neighborhood.
