just wish these darn car shows would shut off the goofy music, and let us hear the CARS!

Miuras ROCK!

I'll have to tell you the story of me and the Pantera sometime!  ;)

The side profile is gorgeous, but the straight front and back view is an aquired taste ;)

I think we've had this conversation before in the other forum!

I just can say that after hearing a 400SV at full throttle you are never the same  ;D

Rick,  I've also got  Pantera story.  A few years ago, Buddy Hale and I used to head to Mike Gagen's house for the weekend pretty regularly.  Buddy was dropping off parts for Mike's split, and I was going for a ride to San Diego.  Mike always had cool cars around including "The Flying Tomato", an early Riviera, 65 Mustang convertible and the Pantera.  Around 6am on Sunday, Mike took me for a ride all over the freeways around SD at breakneck speeds, with the motor roaring behind our heads.  I really enjoyed the experience.

Mike always had the cool stuff. There's nothing like sitting with a V8 behind you!
