Hello everybody again,
I have posted about the 73 Mach 1 I am currently looking at.
Below is a links to a video showing the car.
I am thinking about restoring the car to a "survivor" - meaning to say, keep as much as possible of what is there, replace only what is necessary (e.g. no new paint; definitely not creating a concours car; but technically it has to be fit).
I would really appreciate your thoughts on the condition of the car, what needs to be / should be done, what the Budget for that might be, pitfalls, things to check before buying etc. My focus today is the interior. Engine/trans/brakes etc. will be looked at soon - more thereafter (engine runs well, seller claims it drives etc - that will be confirmed).
I also include the Marti Report and have a questions regarding that as well: The seat upholstery does not look Mach 1 like to me (compared to upholstery from the various vendors out there). Also, color doesn't match with white. But it looks authentic - any thoughts on that?
Again, many thanks for your hep!
Best regards,
Chris
