1969 Shelby gt 500 Convertible Found this yesterday in a barn. It is an 85000 mile car all original. |
 1973 Ford Mach 1.
My wife spotted it first as we drove by a farm house here in Michigan,
out back behind the house we saw a muscle car and from the road I knew
it was a Mach 1 Mustang. We pulled into the driveway and I knocked at
the door and an older gentleman answered. I asked him if he was
interested in selling his Mustang and he said he wasn't quite ready
to let it go. I asked if he was going to restore it and he said no. What
a shame to see this car slowly sinking away forever as you can see in
the pic's. He told me it was a 1973 Mach 1 and it was very fast and ran
when parked a long time ago. I asked if I could take pic's of it and he
smiled and said sure. Wish I had this car or any car like it that needs
to be rescued. Bill |
I came across this 65 mustang behind
a house, from the looks of it. It was a racer at one point, it has a bulged
fiberglass lift off hood, racing seats, roll cage, shifter and gauges. It
also had some kind of big block but I couldn't get much of a look, the
owners weren't around and I didn't want to mess with it, so I didn't want to
mess with it, so I will go back another time. Cary |
