I would like to extend a thank you to everyone who has answered my posts and those who shared their pictures and stories that gave me the motivation to keep going. My Mach 1 is very much a part of myself and those that read my introduction thread understand why.

Last year I was going through a divorce that made me lose my garage. I worked on my car so much, I was beyond exhausted, but my Mach 1 was very much worth the effort. During moments of trying to solve a problem or needing information regarding things that I did not know, you guys helped me a great deal. A year later, my car was up and running, better than new. Two weeks after it hitting the road, I moved out of the house and into an apartment with my 08 GT and my 72 Mach 1.
Thankfully my buddy was more than welcoming when I asked to go to his shop so I could have a place to work on my car despite being low on business and stressed out. It worked out perfectly because he is in metal fabrication and I needed someone to weld the subframes and a spacer on the car. I truly can't thank him enough. That leads me to my car now being done mechanically. The next thing is the weatherstripping and interior.
For now, it's a matter of finally getting over my recent drama, adjusting to my new life as a single dad to an amazing little boy and enjoying my beast of Mach 1. It is fast and it handles so well that I can use all of my power, which is a great thing. I will post my specs when I have a little more time. For now, here are some pics of my build and the sleeping beast.
