[DeTomaso] top 10 performance upgrades

[Mark McWhinney]

The Pantera heater hoses are no more failure prone than any other 35 year
old hoses, as far as I know.  When (not if) they go, they can dump scalding
water on you and fog the windshield.

Been there, done that ... hey why are my shoes so warm and wet ...

Remind me now, are Panteras more prone to hose failure than other cars?

David, heard the stories and its cold here without a heater . . .
