- A 1971 Mustang Coupe was my first car,
Now rebuilding a '72 Qcode Mach 1.
351/4speed
Hello everyone. My car is a 1971 hardtop. I am currently running a '69 302 with a solid comp cam, forged bottom end .040 over, 351W heads ported and polished, victor jr intake, with a proform 650, and an msd ignition system. I'm using a C4 transmission with a 3500rpm stall converter, hardened pumps, all those fancy bands and clutches, and a reverse manual valve body. The body is currently undergoing an at home restoration, I work at a resto-shop, so I have some sort of a clue as to what I'm doing.. I think!. Im hoping to have the body in primer awaiting paint in about 2 months, it is my daily car so I cant just tear it apart and have it sitting, so it'll take a bit longer than most project cars.
This was my first car, I bought it when I was 15, got it on the road, then the motor died, so I built a new one. Then it got rear ended, so i fixed that. The car is driven threw all weather, rain, blizzards, the heat, everything, I recently drove it to Worcester Mass and back with no problems. I built it to be driven and that's what it gets. Im still a youngin', (20 years old), but Im all muscle at heart, no imports or anything new for me.
I look forward to this checking out all of your cars and pictures, and I hope I'll be able to learn a lot from you guys... see you around!
p.s. im looking for ANYTHING fiberglass for the car, in ANY condition.. Mainly the hood and fenders, but I can use anything you may have layin around the backyard/shed that's all beatup and broken. PM me if you've got something, thanks
