Hello Garth; I saw that tschnoeck had a Mustang Pony emblem on his garage wall, thus the reason for my inquiry.quote:Originally posted by garth66:
Hey Speed,
Good suggestion on the PPI - I never buy a car sight unseen. Just too risky! Airfare is cheap insurance against making a costly purchase mistake.
BTW, who are you asking about owning a Mustang? I have two - a 66 GT Fastback I'm currently restoring (actually resto-modding), and a 70 Mach 1 that's my next project (it's currently a shell on wheels). As a matter of fact, when my Pantera swallowed it's air cleaner stud I put the fresh Mach 1 engine in to break it in in the Pantera so I could continue enjoying the car while I rebuild the Pantera engine, AGAIN!
Always liked the 69-70 Mach 1.
Wish that Ford would have combined the rear fender scoop of the 69 & the louvered headlamp surrounds of the 70.
PLUS the "Shaker Hood"!!!
I passed on a Highly Optioned 69 Mach 1 "S" code ( 390 CI) 4 speed in Calypso Coral, original owner,located in Seline, Kansas 3 years ago for the sale price of $18,800.00.
In retrospect...."Stupidly" passed on the car!
That one still Haunts Me!
After that debacle, I purchased a 1973 Mach 1 Cobra Jet, factory 4 high, "Highly Optioned", original owner car that was purchased from the Ford dealership in Santa Clara, Ca. & the owner lived in Santa Clara, Ca.
Paid the money for the Deluxe Marti report & the Mach 1 turned out to be a "1" of "1"!!!
Car is 100% original down to still having the factory carb & dual point distributor!
