Hmmm... another '73 bumper on a '72. Doesn't look as good as Thin Lizzy's - probably because it's white and you can see all the fitment issues more clearly.

Except for that and the black NACA ducts, I like it! ::thumb:: I'm really diggin' the blacked-out taillight panel with no honeycomb bright work as well.

Better be absolutely rust-free for that amount of money being "just" an H-code - looks like some tired upholstery gonna need some replacin'.

Is he running trim rings on Magnums??? Maybe 14 inch ones like they used on Rancheros and LTD II's...

Yeah for that kind of money for an H code - I'd sure need a Marti report.

The power windows with non-deluxe interior always looks funny to me. Again a Marti would help to sort out for sure.

Interesting! This car is about 3 miles from me. I never seen it around town.

Those are also 73 front fenders and fender trim. The bumper recess is level with the side marker lights. on a 71-2 it is higher up

Looks like 73 Headlight trim as well, along with the 71/72 grill.

:dodgy:

Maybe these reasons are why it is still for sale.

Sounds kinda Heinz-57'd = a bunch of stuff thrown together to make a whole something...

-power windows in a standard interior kept me from looking further!

Does anyone else have this setup with a Marti?

I'm getting a bad vibe from this car. I'd feel a whole lot better if it were priced at $7500. (just my opinion).

Ray, I had the same comment about a 1973 Mach 1 that was posted by Tim in this thread. There is a Marti report in here too.

Yes. I was thinking it was odd but possible.

Appreciate the link and info!

Again - still seems really weird to me. :dodgy:

Very NICELY optioned car, in my opinion, but I am not a purist so it doesn't matter whether or not it has all the "paint daubs" in the right places.
