[TPR] New Front spoiler and wheels for 2021

Mon Apr 12 11:21:49 PDT 2021

Your right of course….you sold me the last pair which I sold to Mark! 
They still look great😊

That photo I sent earlier is of the ones lost in the fire in ‘99. 
I blame Wilkinson…LOL

Question remains can ME or others get colors from YOU Mr. PPC?

==========

I  don’t think I did last time, I think that’s a reflection off that Yellow Pantera sitting there next to you. LOL, even turned your wheels golden.

Great feedback Larry, thank you.

I am going to order new decklid and hood from YOU soon as I get down to LA
Can you/your supplier do colors on the CF overlay like I once had??

Generally these parts are Fiberglass (FRP), but like most of our items we can also do them with an outside layer of Carbon Fibre that adds more cost but also adds some added stability typically on Hoods and decklids. In my Opinion, the weakest part of our Race lipped air Dam is the upper mounting to the Body with the Nut Rivets. I have included what else we have done for high speed stability and ground effects with the added front wing and a center Radiator air channel thru to the rear diffuser. 

The outer two air channels are much more complicated with skirts, Moving A-Arms, and the air being sucked up thru the engine and out the top of the deck lid. That can be addressed later.

Thank you Larry for sharing with us.
Great on how rugged your pieces are. I was happy with what you sold me before.

What the FRP air dams? CF or fiberglass?
Maybe share with the guys which is good for the ‘street’, and if you have a photo of one installed on a Pantera that would be good to see as well.

Randy is in a class by himself. What he does with his creative proportional genius and style in aluminum is simply amazing. 

Our FRP Air Dams are simply proven down force performers at speeds over 200 MPH.
I have jacked up the front end of the Pantera on it. 
I have scraped and lifted the front end pushing over driveways, and bounced off the concrete parking stops without damage.

    Wotz up my peeps!

    For this year ORR events I was looking for a front spoiler to replace the big air dam I bolted on the Pantera for 20+ Years which was too damn low for the street and its not called a cow catcher for nothing....yea it was ugly too. 😂

    The air damn worked great at high speed but I also could not run it on the street with out chewing up the bottom and it dropped top end speed as well at ORR’s. Add in the usual challenging roads and the environment everywhere and the spoiler just made more sense for the future.

    Larry Stock (Pantera Parts Connecrion) still has several fiberglass spoilers and air damns available for sale too and btw Larry is the last of the Pantera vendors still making these as well as the other hood, body  and rear deck lids.

    Much as I love larry and how he has supported us in the past thru thew years I decided I wanted something different...something more stylish (like me) 😉 that followed the lines, had canards and followed the body lines closer and I looked at Randy Grubbs aluminum front spoiler which he fabricated as well as his rear deck lid and decided this was the way I wanted to go.

    We have it mocked up and bolted in and after a final fit and finish and paint. It will go back on the Pantera. 

    I think most of you already know Randy is the consummate designer, fabricator and builder.../he does it all and is currently restoring a McClaren race car. Look him up on google. Its pretty amazing story.

    Randy alao has the jig and tooling at home in Grants Pasa Oregon and he can build and sell  these for $1500.  A piece so get the word out.

    So  you complete fit and finish  with a pair of tinsnips and fitting it and bolting it on is pretty easy. We put  mine on And had it fitted and bolted on after adjusting both sides and bottom in a couple hours.

    I honestly think he is selling these things CHEAP but as he said to me today he isnt trying to make profit as much  as he just enjoys seeing his work on other Pantera’s and race cars
    if you want something different in aluminum Randy is the man. Hell I am not sure I even want to paint the thing. LOL

    Fitting Randys spoiler on my beast

    And Randys first spoiler in his Pantera which he has been barn storming at track events in Pacific Northwest

    Final 3 photos show full size air dam and smaller
    Mini-air damn that Larry fabs and sells. 

    So you got some choices people with two guys who are veteran racers and good friends.

    Hope you enjoy this report...oh and one more much more confidential report on WHEELS COMING UP LATER.

    Take a look at these bad-boys!! Will share more detail with you all later.

    Right now this is highly classified but a set of these and wheel centers etc about $1500 and if you want magnesium about $500 a piece but this is TOP SECRET and only my new secretary in LA knows about this secret UFO.
    😜😂🤣

    Good Times My Peeps

    PS on being asked how I felt about moving back to LA I could only think of Al Pacino who said in one of the Godfather movies,

    “Just when I thought I was out they pulled me back in”
