    Hello from FL!!

    Hey! I'm a new Panther owner from FL. I got my '90 CV (pics to come) in November for $500, and I've been totally stoked on them since! I've been getting all the little bugs worked out, and then I'll start having some fun with it. I already have plans for exhaust, a short ram intake, and possibly lowering it a little. I'm so happy to have found this group, and all of it's resources!

      Welcome. Believe it out not the stock air intake would be better then using warm air that you would get from adding a short ram intake underneath the hood.

      The upgrage most of of like to do is adding an aero air box and air intake tube. You are fortunate enough to have a 1990 model so your inner fender already has the provisions to bolt down the aero air box.

      At the same time you would have to get an 1990 Town Car fandshroud which houses the coolant overflow and add the aero washer reservoir to your fender.

                        There's folks in the panhandle that don't want to drive to Miami. This part of the state is about as central as it can get for a meeting spot.

                        South FL is its own world. Yall can keep it :-p
